You’ll likely have to do your first few interviews virtually, whether that means phone interviews, video interviews, or one-way interviews. So, be prepared because face-to-face interviews won't be as common for the next few months. 2. Focus on Your Personal Brand - Create a 2-3 sentence personal branding statement that clearly outlines what you do, how you do it and why, and what you're looking to do next. This will allow your brand to resonate with people in your network so they can pass along opportunities that are a great fit for you. 3. Start ACTUALLY Using LinkedIn - Reconnect with people who are already in your network, share content in your LinkedIn feed that support your professional specialty (this will help people remember what you do), and invite people who work at your target companies to connect.

As a Citizens Soldier for Life Counselor, I've been seeing the same question come up over and over again: Can the

coronavirus impact your ability to get a job? The short answer is yes. The coronavirus concern has been spreading like wildfire and it's causing some major issues for both employers, employees, and job seekers. Some companies are experiencing hiring freezes, alternative interviewing setups (i.e. video interviewing vs. face-to-face), and even layoffs as a result of this pandemic.

However, at the same time, I have received a ton of information on business who are eager to hire. I’ve also noticed that businesses are gearing their company’s employment towards a more of a remote-oriented platform; offering more remote type positions.

3 Tips to Help your Job Search: 1. Get Really Good at Virtual Interviewing – Find a spot in your home and set up an office. You’ll likely have to

do your first few interviews virtually, whether that means phone interviews, video interviews, or one-way interviews. So, be prepared because face-to-face interviews won't be as common for the next few months.

2. Focus on Your Personal Brand - Create a 2-3 sentence personal branding statement that clearly outlines what you do, how you do it and why, and what you're looking to do next. This will allow your brand to resonate with people in your network so they can pass along opportunities that are a great fit for you.

3. Start ACTUALLY Using LinkedIn - Reconnect with people who are already in your network, share content in your LinkedIn feed that support your professional specialty (this will help people remember what you do), and invite people who work at your target companies to connect.
