The IBS Workshop
About the Workshop
A couple times per year, we select an engaged group of professionals to help them succeed in their job search through personalized guidance.
The participants join two master classes, where our Head of Career teaches them what to know when crafting their application documents to make them stand out.
At the end, they are also given the opportunity to attend 1-1 sessions with the career team to get feedback on their application documents.
