Standing Out with Confidence! Resumes, Interviews & Navigating Hiring Bias
About this Event
Getting the interview is one thing. Standing out with confidence is another.
Join us for Workshop 3 of WorkReady Alberta, a FREE, practical and interactive workshop designed to help you strengthen your résumé, prepare for interviews, communicate your value with confidence, and better understand how bias can show up in the hiring process.
This isn’t just another résumé-and-interview workshop. We’ll go beyond the usual advice and give you practical tools you can actually use in your next job application and interview.
What You’ll Learn & Experience
✨ Use AI to strengthen your résumé
Learn how to use AI thoughtfully to help prepare and tailor your résumé—while keeping your experience and authentic voice at the centre.
💡 Go beyond the STAR method
Already familiar with STAR? We’ll introduce the VALUE™ Framework, a different approach to preparing and structuring stronger interview responses.
🎭 Watch a live interview role play
See interview responses in action. Watch, analyze and learn what can make an answer stronger—and what you might do differently.
🎯 Prepare to communicate your value
Practice approaching common interview questions with an actual HR / hiring manager and gain greater clarity, confidence and intention.
⚖️ Recognize and navigate hiring bias
Explore where bias can enter the hiring process and practical strategies for responding and redirecting during interviews. This is a core part of the Workshop 3 learning experience.
Who Should Attend?
This workshop is especially helpful for job seekers, newcomers, internationally trained professionals, career changers, and anyone who wants to feel more prepared and confident navigating today’s hiring process.
