Everyone deserves a break once in a while, especially if that break happens to coincide with a mid week day game at Coors Field. ⚾️🧢 What does your ideal break look like? #funemployment #coorsfield #baseball #jobsearch

Start your engines and welcome to the F1 Grand Prix of the US Job Market, where the race for employment is more thrilling than a last-lap overtake at Monaco! In pole position, we have the 'F1 Students Speedsters'! Watch them zip around the track of academia, armed with their international perspectives and multi-lingual skills. But wait, there's a twist in the course – navigating the complex chicane of visa regulations and work permits! Revving up beside them are the 'F1-OPT Mavericks'. They're the ones with extra nitro in their tanks, squeezing every ounce of practical training from their OPT (Optional Practical Training) period. They're quick, they're adaptable, and they're racing against the clock to secure that all-important H1-B sponsorship. Tick tock, folks! ⏳🚀 Don't overlook the 'Local Bachelor and Master Speed Demons' in the next lane. These homegrown talents know the track inside out, often favored by hiring managers for their ready-to-go status – no complex immigration turns here! They've got the local lingo down and are often seen taking the inside track straight from college to career. And overseeing this high-octane race? The 'Hiring Manager Pit Crew Chiefs'. With their keen eyes and strategic minds, they're the ones deciding who gets the fresh tires of opportunity and who's due for a pit stop in skill development. They're waving the flags of job offers, internships, and networking opportunities, keeping an eye out for that perfect blend of skill, speed, and adaptability. So, grab your pit lane passes, folks! Whether you're an F1 student navigating the hairpins, an OPT driver in the fast lane, a local grad cruising on home advantage, or a hiring manager calling the shots, it's sure to be a race to remember in the job market Grand Prix! #jobmarkettrends #career #usjobseekers #f1students #opt #layoffs #layoffs2023 Disclaimer: All metaphors are in good fun – the real job market race may include fewer checkered flags and more cover letters. 😉

Before you meet, also plan to share: - 'why I want to work in sport' - 'this is what I'm working towards' Then they'll know how to help you best. Follow me Reuben Williams for more career help.

We created this one-stop shop for anyone in the baseball industry or who wants to get into the industry, to use to see all the up-to-date and relevant positions that teams post. Filter for a specific organization, apply for the latest jobs, and don't need to worry about jobs that don't apply for what you're actually trying to pursue in your career.

I interviewed 52 HR Managers and other employees on how to get a Motorsport job, here’s what they said: 🔍 Passion and Persistence Passion for motorsport is essential. It drives you to go the extra mile and endure the demanding lifestyle. 📚 Education and Skills Different roles require different qualifications. Aerodynamicists and race engineers need degrees, but roles like pit crew or marketing may not. 🤝 Experience and Networking Start at lower levels of motorsport. Volunteer, gain hands-on experience, and build a network. Cold calling smaller teams can open doors. 📈 Initiative Show your interest by engaging in motorsport activities. Join formula student teams, volunteer at local tracks, and create related content. 💼 Applications and Interviews Tailor your CV to the country’s standards. During interviews, demonstrate your knowledge of the company and role, and consider presenting how you can add value. 🌟 Long-term Commitment Building a career in motorsport takes time. Most professionals took at least 10 years to reach high positions. 🚀 Ready to start your motorsport career? Check out fluidjobs.com and use our career preparation tool to get ahead!
