Career and Networking | Wednesday, Sept. 29

Get ready for a special event for job seekers and career-minded professionals looking to prepare to take that next step up the corporate ladder. The National Urban League devotes Day 2 of its annual conference to a forward-looking slate of workshops tailored to enhanced job success and economic independence. From LinkedIn profile critiques and mock interviews, to getting a jump on tomorrow's career trends and the corporate diversity and inclusion agenda, here's your opportunity to find your place in the nation's post pandemic workforce.

Nearly 30 percent of Black college-educated households would've been unable to pay all their bills after a $400 emergency expense, before the onset of the pandemic. COVID-19 has only exacerbated the problem and immediate action is needed. Black America must not only dig out of a deep hole but begin to create wealth.
