The Job Forum - Weekly Wednesday Meeting: Free Job Search & Career Advice
2023-12-13 21:00 - 23:00
Every Wednesday night from 6:00 to 8:00pm, a rotating panel of experts from a variety of Bay Area companies convene in a virtual meeting to help YOU with your job search. We are a nonprofit organization sponsored by The San Francisco Chamber of Commerce, and we are here to help!
Job seeking can be hard and stressful. We know sometimes you just have questions and want real advice. Our staff of professional volunteers will spend the time to understand you and help you take the next steps in your job search.
Each Wednesday, we have a rotating panel of three experts in their respective fields. Though the specific industry of the panelist may not be your own, there is plenty of valuable information that can be taken from each meeting. Anyone who joins our virtual meeting will get a chance to speak to these advisors and get insight on questions they might have. You now have the option of submitting your resumes and LinkedIn profiles for instant feedback.
• Each attendee gets a turn. While you are waiting for your turn, you get to hear the advice and practical suggestions given to other attendees and apply them to your own situation. As an open forum to all participants, you can also make suggestions to other participants.
• When it is your turn, you share a brief summary of your current situation, goals, and what you need help with. You can tell us whatever special circumstances or frustrating responses you are encountering as you look for your next job.
• The panel asks questions and shares ideas, feedback, and resources that can help you focus your job search efforts and prioritize your next steps.
This week – NEW PRIZE DRAWING!
This week, The Job Forum will be holding a drawing with two fantastic prizes! A winner will be drawn from the people who sign up and ATTEND the meeting. You MUST be present to win. The prizes are a free 30-min 1-On-1 Advising session with one of our career advisors or a copy of “Give Yourself A Nudge: How Smart People Make Smarter Personal Business Decisions,” by Ralph L. Keeney.
The winner will be announced at the end of the meeting, so make sure you sign up, attend, and stay until the end!
** If you are the winner, YOU MUST give us your email in the chat so we can contact you. A couple people have won and were not registered through Eventbrite, or possibly go by another name, so YOU MUST tell us how to contact you.
How to sign up:
REGISTER on EventBrite: https://thejobforumwednesdays.eventbrite.com

Register here via Eventbrite.
24 hours in advance, as well as 2 hours in advance of event, you will receive an email containing a link and password, allowing you to join The Job Forum via Zoom.
We have limited attendance and many job hunters who want customized input for their job search, so please sign up only if you are truly going to attend and participate for the whole 2 hours.
Please be no more than 15 minutes late. We do close the meeting and cannot allow late-comers to join.
Since we’re trying to stay connected despite social isolation, we will have our cameras on. Please join us on camera if possible.

Again, the sharing of resumes and profiles on select days is optional and is not required if you do not feeling comfortable doing so. The files or links will be submitted to and shared by the panelists only. Any file or link will be shared with the group, so if you do not decide to submit your own, you can still gain valuable information from someone else’s submission.

ADA and Beyond Compliance Considerations: Medical Documentation
2024-01-11 14:00 - 15:00
Description:
When an employer requests medical documentation pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), there is more to consider than just checking boxes off a list. Offering flexibility in the process by accepting alternative forms of medical information and documentation and focusing on functional limitations to support accommodation requests can help bridge the gap between what is technically allowable under the ADA and meeting the needs of employees with disabilities. This JAN training will include information about what the ADA requires with respect to medical inquiries, common scenarios when employers request medical documentation, and beyond compliance strategies for employers to consider when navigating the ADA accommodation process.
Presenters:

Lisa Mathess, Principal Consultant, ADA Specialist

How to Navigate the Remote and Flexible Job Market: Trends in 2024
2024-01-18 14:00 - 14:45
A choice of work environment and location is now a key factor for many job seekers when searching for a better work-life balance and evaluating new career opportunities. A recent FlexJobs survey found that 65% of respondents reported a desire to work remotely full-time, while 32% want a hybrid work environment. That’s an incredible 97% of workers who desire some form of remote work!
Ideally, people can balance their career and their personal life in a way that works best for their needs, and having a more flexible job typically helps with this. Are you interested in remote jobs and flexible work options, like being able to work from home, have a flexible schedule, find a professional-level part-time job, or work on freelance/contract projects? Can you continue to work remotely if you already are? Can your employer make you come into the office? This webinar will discuss the flexible job market, trends in 2024 to pay attention to, and how to position yourself for a remote or flexible job.
Our January webinar series, From Resolution to Reality: How to Make Your New Year’s Career Goals Happen, features these webinars:

New Year, New Job, New You: How to Achieve Your Career Goals in 2024
Ditch the Resolutions and Achieve Your Career Goals in 2024 with Beverly Jones
