The Society of American Business Editors and Writers will hold a conference call later this month to help business journalists who have lost their jobs in the economic downturn and are looking for work.

The call will be held on July 14 at 3 p.m. EST.

The call will focus on what hiring managers are looking for today, how to redo your resume to draw attention and where to look for a job beyond the usual places.

On the call will be Kevin Noblet, deputy managing editor of wealth management at Dow Jones Newswires, and Colleen Eddy, director of the career center and business development at the Poynter Institute.

The call will be moderated by Bill Choyke, a former Virginian-Pilot business editor who was laid off at the end of last year.

If you’re interested in participating, send an e-mail to sabew@missouri.edu with “yes” as the subject line to learn how to call in and how to ask questions
