Job searching is not just a professional challenge. It is a mental, emotional, and physical endurance event, with a few corporate funhouse mirrors thrown in for good measure.

In this candid, practical, and occasionally humorous 30-minute talk, Jeff Pelaccio shares lessons from his own career journey, including leaving nine companies involuntarily, and how those experiences shaped the way he helps others survive and succeed during a job search. Jeff will discuss how broken hiring practices, ghosting, rejection, uncertainty, and long stretches of silence can mess with your confidence, your energy, and sometimes your sanity.

Attendees will walk away with healthier ways to think about the job search, practical ideas for protecting their mindset and momentum, and a reminder that being between jobs is a chapter, not an identity.

Jeff Pelaccio is president of Pelaccio & Partners and host of The Corporate Couch podcast. He has three decades of experience in leadership and education.
