Who is hiring now? How can I shift careers without downsizing my salary? Is a one-page resume still the rule? Where do I even start my search? As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to upend the job market, the WSJ Jobs Summit will provide new graduates and workers trying to get back in the game—or reinvent their skillset—with a modern toolkit to navigate this competitive market.
Through interviews and interactive workshops with leaders across business, we’ll look at the workforce landscape from multiple angles, including:

"As someone who has attended many career-oriented events in the past I was afraid this experience would be very repetitive, but I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the information shared."
