Niezależnie od tego, czy zdajesz sobie z tego sprawę, czy nie – masz swoją markę osobistą. Co pojawia się w Google, gdy wpisujesz swoje imię i nazwisko? Pytanie brzmi: czy dostaniesz drugą szansę na pierwsze wrażenie? Dodatkowo, zapytaj siebie: czy chcesz pozwolić, aby Twoja reputacja w sieci zaczęła żyć własnym życiem? Czy jednak warto kontrolować narrację? Wraz z rozpowszechnieniem się mediów społecznościowych i rozwojem technologii, niezwykle ważne jest to, aby przyjąć strategię budowy marki osobistej – personal branding jeszcze nigdy nie był tak istotny. Jak w takim razie świadomie budować Personal Branding? Na to pytanie odpowiedziała Anna Zadrożna podczas 10. zjazdu studiów podyplomowych Career Advisory. Kolejną poruszoną podczas tego zjazdu kwestią był outplacement omówiony przez Justynę Przybysz.

Hack LinkedIn (& bots) for your job search


Free session for experienced managers & executives in Europe who are currently looking for a job (or getting ready for it): “Hack LinkedIn (& bots) for your job search“.

AI is expected to replace 16% of recruitment sector jobs before 2029. These and other numbers show that technology wants to play the first fiddle in today’s job market. 60-70% of job ads for executives are filtered through so-called ATS. 75% of CVs will never be seen by human eyes. But there are ways around this!

A senior candidate who wants to be successful in their job search has to embrace technology and all that comes with it. But it’s easy to get lost, especially for those who haven’t looked for a job in a while. Read more

About Challenge Accepted Europe

About the initiative: we – Career Angels – have been providing a safe space for experienced managers and executives in this successful formula since April 2018. Due to CV-19, we adapted the format for the experience to be as effective and productive online, as it has been proven to be offline.

The underlying idea is to create a community for managers throughout Europe who have accepted the challenge of looking for a job (actively or passively), so that they can exchange their experiences, support each other through listening, words of encouragement, information and inspire each other.

The free online meetings are dedicated to specific career & job search topics and provide networking opportunities. Coming up:

Whether you are aware of it or not, you have your own personal brand. What shows up on Google when you search for your full name? The question is: will you get a second chance for a first impression? Additionally, ask yourself: do you want your online reputation to live its own life? Or maybe it’s worth controlling the narrative? With the social media spread and the development of technology, it is essential to adopt a personal branding strategy, as personal branding has never been so important. But how do you build it consciously? This question was answered by Anna Zadrożna during 10th weekend of the Career Advisory Postgraduate Studies. Another issue that we focused on during the weekend was outplacement, discussed by Justyna Przybysz.

“Please tell us something about yourself”, “What is your biggest failure? What did you learn from it?”, “What is your greatest success?”, “How do you handle a stressful situation?”, “Why should we hire you?”. These are standard recruitment questions that can be difficult to answer.
Additionally, nowadays, most of the interviews take place online and besides preparing the content, candidates have to prepare the visual part as well – i.e. they need to have a stable Internet connection, good lighting, quiet space, etc. Up to 90% of candidates do not prepare beforehand – they just go with the flow. They don’t read about the company or industry, nor even the content of the job ad they applied to; they don’t know who the person they are meeting is.
During the 9th weekend of our postgraduate studies, Career Advisory, we discussed preparing the client for various types of job interviews.

Contact decision makers directly – why LinkedIn doesn’t work (& what does)


Free session for experienced managers & executives in Europe who are currently looking for a job (or getting ready for it): “Contact decision makers directly – why LinkedIn doesn’t work (& what does)“.

LinkedIn is a great tool, but not the panacea for everything, including when contacting decision makers. That might seem counter-intuitive, especially when you think of how LinkedIn Premium promotes InMail and its efficiency. BUT: there are more effective ways of reaching out to those who have the power to hire you. If you are an executive those decision makers can include:
– Private Equity / Investment Funds
– supervisory boards
– private & family owners
– HQ-based executives
– regional senior managers
– board members
… depending on your own level of seniority. Read more

„Proszę opowiedzieć coś o sobie”, „Jaka jest Twoja największa porażka? Czego Cię nauczyła?”, „Jaki jest Twój największy sukces?”, „Jak radzisz sobie ze stresującą sytuacją?”, „Dlaczego akurat Ciebie mamy zatrudnić?”. Te standardowe pytania rekrutacyjne potrafią sprawić trudność.
W dodatku, większość spotkań odbywa się obecnie online i do przygotowania merytorycznego dochodzi również przygotowanie techniczne i wizualne, jak np. stabilne połączenie z Internetem, dobre światło, spokojna przestrzeń itd. Aż 90% kandydatów nie przygotowuje się przed rozmowami – idą na żywioł. Nie czytają na temat firmy, branży albo nie czytają nawet treści ogłoszenia, na które aplikowali; nie wiedzą kim jest osoba, z którą się spotykają. Podczas 9. zjazdu studiów podyplomowych – Career Advisory omawialiśmy tematykę przygotowania klienta do różnych rodzajów rozmów kwalifikacyjnych.
