Connecting: Practical job search advice for every life season from an HR and hiring pro

Jun 24th, 2026 | Workplace Insights

What do recent graduates entering the workforce and seasoned professionals navigating career transitions have in common? According to our President, Meghan Popoleo (Sherry), success still comes down to a few key fundamentals: adaptability, networking, and continuous learning.

We were honored to have Meghan featured in a recent article by Alana Muller, networking speaker, workshop facilitator, coach, and author of Coffee Lunch Coffee: A Practical Field Guide for Master Networking. In the article, Meghan shares actionable advice for job seekers at every career stage, including the importance of AI literacy, building meaningful professional relationships, and staying open to new opportunities.

One of our favorite takeaways: "People hire energy and skills more than a resume."

If you're looking for practical career advice that you can put into action immediately, this is a must-read.
