- Outreach avoids workforce development jargon and uses employer-friendly, conversational language to build rapport.
- Instead of asking employers directly about hiring needs, conversations often begin by seeking advice or feedback on improving candidate readiness.
- Technical terms are tailored to reflect employer priorities; for example, focusing on specific job roles or skill sets (e.g., AWS certification, cybersecurity expertise) rather than generalized training descriptions.
