The job picture in our area has changed considerably over the past few years – it’s in fact looking quite good!

But the competition for good jobs is still fierce. This week we’ll talk about “branding up” and growing your network. Also, I’ll project a few job descriptions for a look into deciphering what employers want against our qualifications. As always, with great coffee and light refreshments, compliments of Central Market.

Next week (10/14), Derek Bender from Port of Seattle will pay a visit with his Binder ‘O Jobs. These are good paying opportunities, and he’ll key us all in on just what they look for down at the Port.

See you Friday – and as always, Good Luck Out There!

GAC Presents: The Iranian Nuclear Deal – Preventing a Weapons Program? Thurs., Oct. 6

iranian-dealGAC: The Iranian Nuclear Deal – Preventing a Weapons Program?, PUB 9208
Thurs., Oct. 6: 7-8:30 p.m.

Come to a talk featuring Dr. Halvor A Undem, University of Washington, Jackson School of International Studies, and former Advisor to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

In 2015, a landmark nuclear deal was reached between Iran and the P5+1 group of world powers (the United States, Great Britain, France, China and Russia plus Germany).  Crippling economic sanctions on Iran would be lifted once the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) certified that Iran had restricted its sensitive nuclear activities.  The White House says the deal will prevent Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon. Iran says it has the right to nuclear energy – and stresses that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only.

Additional support provided by the Center for Global Studies, Henry M. Jackson School of International Studies, UW. For more information about Dr. Halvor A Undem, visit our biographies page.
