Jump Start Your Job Search Workshop

Join us from 9 am - 4 pm on October 19 for a full day interactive workshop to provide help and hope in your job search.

A Key to Your Job Search – Tools & Organization – Amy Dinning, Talent Development Leader, will share important tools, tips and organization that is critical for you in your job search. You need more than a resume and cover letter to be successful and if you aren’t organized it makes it impossible to follow up.

Knock Out Networking – Michael Goldberg, founder of Knock Out Networking will share how job seekers MUST have a “knock-out” approach to making great connections otherwise they will fail. Simple as that! It’s important to have a strategy for networking events, business meetings, holiday parties, LinkedIn, and even time spent with friends and family. You will learn to confidently meet and greet new people in professional settings and how to deliver a knockout elevator speech.

How to Nail Your Next Interview – Ken Sher, owner of Sher Coaching, will help you prepare for a variety of interviewing situations. You’ll learn: effective ways to handle phone interviews, tips for virtual interviews, how to handle the most difficult interview questions or challenges, and what not to say in an interview. To be successful with your interviews, you need to prepare, practice, and have a process to answer questions.

Unlock Your Earning Potential: Mastering Salary Negotiations – Corey Crapella will lead us in an empowering session on mastering the art of salary negotiations. You will learn how to shift your perspective on salary negotiations to reduce stress and increase confidence; tactical approaches to ensure you're prepared and comfortable discussing your worth; and the key elements of effective salary negotiation, including when and how to negotiate, what to say (and not say), and how to handle tough questions.

Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. and the workshop begins at 9 a.m. The formal part of the workshop will end at 4:00 p.m. Snacks and sandwiches will be provided; if you have special food needs, please bring your lunch.
