Advice from a Recruiter: Everything You Need to Know and Do Before You Hit "Apply"
Event details
Job hunting is hard. It can feel intimidating and incredibly discouraging at times.
We've been there, and we hear you – which is why we've asked Senior Recruiting Manager at White & Case LLP, Jennifer Mittelsteadt, for advice.
Before you begin aimlessly browsing and sending off emails, join us for a discussion about:
- How to determine if a job is a good fit for you
- How to tell if a prospective employer shares your values
- How to craft your application for a specific role
- What employers see when you apply
- How to stand out to recruiters and get hired
Jennifer will also provide an inside look at a career with White & Case, what roles they are currently hiring for, and tips on landing a job at the firm.
This event will be recorded and posted here following the event. We'll also email the recording directly to everyone who registers. By registering, you agree to share your email and profile information with the participating company.
