#### Oregon State Grow Your Career Webinar Series:

# **Informational Interviews - How to Access 80% of Jobs That are Never Posted**

 

Sadly, the best jobs are never published.

According to the latest research, up to 80% of jobs are never broadcasted - instead they are offered to personal connections.

That means the solution isn't to spend more time searching.

So - how do we access those "secret" jobs and expand our personal networks?

Learn from Ashely Ward ’11 how to have a great informational interview, create an elevator speech, and how to get that next job.

Webinar Highlights:

By the end of the webinar, you will:

1. Learn what an information interview is and how they help you reach any career goals.
2. Identify the best approach to an elevator speech.
3. Understand how to access 80% of jobs that are never posted.
