Are you tired of submitting countless job applications and never making it past the interview stage?

Then you need to join Tonisha Tagoe and Beatrice Brew for their upcoming workshop, “Getting Past The Interview Stage!“, on April 22nd.

This is the first Powerhouse Workshop of the year, and you do not want to miss out on this incredible opportunity to learn from two industry experts. They will guide you through everything you need to know to make your next job application and interview a success!

The workshop will cover two critical areas: “THE APPLICATION” and “THE INTERVIEW“. You’ll discover how to identify the right career for you, how to acquire the skills you need, how to find suitable roles to apply for, and how to create powerful cover letters, CVs, and references.

During the interview stage, you’ll learn how to conduct comprehensive research on the company, role, and interview panel, how to present yourself professionally through dress code, body language, and posture, how to answer interview questions effectively, and how to negotiate during and after the interview.

As always, tickets to this event come with a one-month membership to our platform, allowing participants to network with other attendees and gain access to exclusive career resources.

There are only 15 seats available.

Secure your spot today and take the first step towards landing your dream job!
