Struggling in the job search? Remember to use your network!

Struggling to get your foot in the door when applying for a new job in this tightening labor market? Career and Leadership Coach Phoebe Gavin sits down with Brad Smith to outline the tactics job applicants have at their disposal to broaden their horizons and network effectively.

"Put effort into broadening your network. And the best way to do that is to join a professional association. It allows you to join online groups or attend events where people in your industry are there, and thinking about work and connecting with other folks who work in that industry," Gavin explains. "It can be an opportunity for you to build your skills, as well, because often these associations put on workshops or events that are meant for skill building."
