MinneAMA: Job Hunting During the Holidays (IRL + Virtual)
MinneAMA: Job Hunting During the Holidays
The end of the year can be a tricky time to job hunt—between holiday schedules, slower hiring cycles, and the emotional weight that can come with layoffs or transitions. But it can also be one of the best times to make connections, refresh your materials, and set yourself up for a strong start in the new year.
Join us for a supportive, practical MinneAMA focused on navigating the job search during the holiday season. We’ll talk about where to focus your energy, how to keep momentum going, and what hiring managers are actually doing this time of year. Bring your questions, big or small, and get real-time advice from folks who’ve been there:
Dave Elliston, Talent Acquisition Manager at Phaedon
Angela Peterson, Lead Talent Acquisition Advisor at VALERE
Mike Moravec, Job Seeker, People-first Team Leader
This session is especially helpful for anyone actively looking, recently laid off, or considering a change heading into 2026.
Bonus: Join us for Minnestar Community Coworking before or after the MinneAMA! Separate registration is required.
