Women in Toys, Licensing & Entertainment (WiT) is stepping up to help women who are in between jobs or have been hit with unemployment by offering complimentary 6-month memberships. Interested parties can apply for a Job Transition Membership here.
“WiT’s mission has always been to help women advance in their careers — including in the moments that don’t go according to plan,” says Janice Ross, WiT president and managing partner, Brand Fresh Management. “The last 18 months have been a really challenging time for our industry. I know it’s cliche, but now — more than ever — we need to be there for each other, and that’s what being a member of WiT is all about.”
According to a recent Qualtric report, 44% of workers in the U.S. plan to seek a new job this year, just as pandemic-fueled unemployment benefits have wound down and burnout as fueled what is being called “The Great Resignation.”
