Advancing Diversity Week: Starting-Level Job Realities and First Job Advice -- Watch On Demand
What are the realities new employees can expect to face as they begin their first jobs, especially young Black employees? How can they prepare for their first day at work? If they are unhappy, feeling unheard or unwelcome at work, what paths can they take? What are the available resources to learn more about opportunities to grow within the same company and within the media and advertising business? Moderator Gail Ayala Taylor, founder of RISE Career Launch, and panelists Ken Fennell, Manager, Sales Operations, Ampersand and Awa Badiane, Executive in Residence at MediaVillage, share advice and council on interview and internship follow-up communications, making personal and business connections, addressing concerns, exploring options and opportunities, and deciding on next steps.
