Here’s what to expect from this episode:  

Have you started the hunt for a corporate instructional design position? Finding your first ID job can be overwhelming and confusing, especially with the various job titles that pop up when searching online job platforms.

In this episode, I’m discussing what to search for when looking for a job in corporate instructional design. I’ll review the keywords you should be using and how to interpret what all these job titles mean to ensure you’re applying for jobs that align with your goals.

Topics covered:

  • The primary search terms you should be using
  • The most common job titles and their differences
  • Additional job titles to be aware of when searching
  • How to determine if the listed position is actually for corporate instructional design
  • The relevance of junior and senior job titles when applying

What other questions do you have about finding a job in corporate ID? I’d love to hear your thoughts. Join our Facebook group, and let’s discuss!
