Navigating the hiring process or re-entering the workforce can be complicated and confusing.<\/p>\n

Our AMPLIFY events are not only uniquely crafted to reduce these challenges, but they are also proven to equip attendees with more confidence in their interview skills, LinkedIn profile, and overall preparedness in their career journey.<\/p>\n

AMPLIFY is an exclusive two-day event that leads a cadre of 45 military spouses through intensive career preparation, professional development, and networking.<\/p>\n

AMPLIFY attendees will leave with an improved resume, professional photos, a polished LinkedIn profile, and a professional network of fellow military spouses and employers.<\/p>\n

In 2019, we are proud to have doubled our AMPLIFY offerings to better serve the military spouse community.<\/p>\n

Here are 10 more reasons AMPLIFY is for you!<\/h3>\n

Individualized content<\/strong>. We keep each cohort at 45 or less so we can spend time getting to know your individual journey.<\/p>\n

Built-in work time.<\/strong> We\u2019ve built time into the schedule to work on your resume and LinkedIn profile so you don\u2019t go home with a list of to-dos that never get done.<\/p>\n

Meet other career-minded military spouses. <\/strong>The other attendees are just like you. Many of our most powerful connections at AMPLIFY come through the other military spouses you meet at the event.<\/p>\n

Meet subject matter experts.<\/strong> These experts will give you real answers about how to approach those questions in an interview that no one should be asking!<\/p>\n

Mastermind matches.<\/strong> We match each attendee with a mastermind from the industry of your choice! You get a mini-mentoring session with them either in person or digitally! Many of these connections have had a lasting impact \u2013 including hires!<\/p>\n

Hone your story!<\/strong> A big focus is on how to market yourself and your skills, not just your previous job titles.<\/p>\n

Know your worth.<\/strong> Talk through how to negotiate salary when you\u2019ve lived in a million different economic markets and have been underemployed for what seems like forever\u2026<\/p>\n

Polish your resume.<\/strong> Figure out how to address the gaps in your resume.<\/p>\n

Meet company representatives who are looking to hire military spouses.<\/strong> These company representatives at national and local companies truly know the value of hiring military spouses and can make introductions for you at their organization.<\/p>\n

Eat.<\/strong> We have snacks.<\/p>\n
