This session helps equip members to navigate students through the recruiting process and making the leap from being a student to employee. Understand what real world employers are looking for as they seek graduates to begin and build their Beauty industry careers. We will discuss behavioral interviewing, establishing expectations and why culture and cultural fit is so critical for both the employer and the employee. Finally, this session will touch on the importance of salesmanship for the student looking to brand themselves and for the employer who needs their associates to be skilled technically, and also in both customer service and sales. Register for this webinar and more for free on the AACS website. Did you miss a recent webinar? You can view them online here. Members in the News

Working remotely sounds like fun (and it is!), but it can be a logistical nightmare sometimes. Occasionally, something as simple as your phone dying while you’re on the go can set off a chain reaction: your plans for that afternoon go sideways, your productivity sinks, your brain gets overwhelmed, you’re already straining your budget–what are you even doing here in the first place!? Trust me, I know.
I spent four months working and traveling through Southeast Asia. That may not sound like much to you, but when you’re a digital nomad who is flying solo, every day can present unexpected adventures–some more welcome than others. You’ve got to be extra prepared to face all sorts of contingencies and cope with stress while you’re overseas.
I never really got into Trello . . . To me, it’s too overwhelming for the individual user. I’ve come to rely on a few essential tools. If you ask me, these are the devices, platforms, and apps you’ll want to have right at your fingertips before booking a trip.
