Statistics show that only about 15% to 20% of jobs available in Nova Scotia are openly advertised. If you are struggling to break into this market, you will want to expand your job search into the remaining 80% to 85%, commonly referred to as the Hidden Job Market. This two-day workshop explores why the Hidden Job Market exists, and how effective networking strategies can help you unlock those opportunities.
