Expand Your Job Network, Tues., Aug 9 August 9, 2011

Expand your network and improve your job hunt skills. We meet August 9th in the St. Mary Immaculate Parish Faith Sharing Room at 15629 S. Route 59 in Plainfield.

We help job seekers succeed. There is no cost to attend, pre-registration is not required, and everyone is welcome. Our members represent all ages, work backgrounds and future desires. Dress is casual.

If you are new to networking, come at 6:30 pm for an introduction to networking tools like the Handbill and the Elevator Speech. At 7:00 pm, you can participate in a structured "Networking Session" to practice skills and expand your network. Bring copies of your handbill or resume.

You can also meet with our volunteer coaches (each an experienced hiring manager) for a one-on-one "Work Session" to get your resume and handbill reviewed, develop networking & interviewing skills, or talk with a coach about spiritual/emotional/financial help needs.

And plan on joining us on August 23rd when noted job coach and speaker Lauren Milligan of ResuMAYDAY will discuss “How to Craft Your Job Search Campaign.”
