So you're looking for a job? Perfect. I have an idea for you. Come to Career Expo at the Colorado Convention Center on Wednesday, October 24th and receive advice from the experts!
Here are the workshops that will be given:
12:15 PM New Strategies for a New Job Market
Donald Strankowski,
Most conventional job search strategies are simply not effective anymore. If the economy has changed and the job market has changed, job seekers must change their thinking, strategies, and tactics in order to be successful. In this high-content and interactive session, learn how to distinguish yourself from the job search masses and give yourself a competitive edge by employing such new tools and strategies as a V-Letter, Brag Book, Cold Calling, and Job Business Plan.
1:15 PM Managing Your Professional ImageShari Harley,
“We are measured not by what we are, but by the perception of what we seem to be; not by what we say, but how we are heard; and not by what we do, but how we appear to do it.” Recruiters and Hiring Managers provide candidates with feedback in clear ways: They call you back for additional interviews, the offer you jobs, and they escort you to the elevator. We often don’t know why employers make the hiring decisions that they do and what would have increased our chances of being offered jobs. Most recruiters are either not permitted or are not comfortable providing direct feedback. Instead, they say nothing, sending a polite but uninformative letter of declination. Receive more job offers and improve your professional reputation by finding out how you’re seen in your business community. Get more feedback, enabling you to take control of what you put in front of others and the impressions you create during the hiring process.
