Job Searching in 2026: What Actually Works?
Looking for a job, thinking about a career change, or wondering how AI is changing the hiring process? Join us at The Studio for an honest, practical conversation about navigating today's job market in Spain and Europe.

AI is screening CVs, LinkedIn has become a major job-search tool, and competition for roles is tougher than ever. So how do you stand out? And what are employers actually looking for?

In this one-off session, Marina Kerlakian Ferreiro (Maru) draws on 15 years of experience in psychology, career coaching, and HR at global companies including Accenture, ABInBev, and Mercado Libre.
