My name is Jen Turi and I am writing CareerCurve’s blog. I am the Manager of Social Media for this outplacement firm and am very passionate about what we do. Please see the About CareerCurve and About the Author page to learn a little bit more about us and me personally. My goal in writing this blog is to connect with all kinds of readers and initiate conversation that is thought-provoking, interesting, and insightful. I want to both learn and share experiences in the world of career transition in the hope that this will provide a platform to help anyone going through a downsizing or reorganization, from any perspective. The last couple of years have been very difficult in our economy on everyone – employees who have been laid off, employers who have had to do the laying off, retained employees who have had to adjust to less assistance and fewer co-workers, directors of organizations who have had to restructure to make do with much smaller budgets and resources – the list goes on and on.
I hope that by creating a forum to share individual experiences we can all learn and make transition easier and less painful, no matter who you are. Being that CareerCurve provides these types of services, I also hope to gather information to continually improve quality for both our clients and our candidates. The best way to know what really works is to ask and I encourage comments. I also look forward to recommendations for more information on post topics, content suggestions and to reading your blogs. If you want to comment offline, my email address is jturi@careercurve.com and you can learn more about the company at www.careercurve.com. Thank you for reading and I look forward to getting to know you and learning from you!
