All:
Below is an update I received relating to the posting I circulated on July 29th relating to Incubator Organization Opportunities at NJIT.
Marty
Marty,
I just want to first thank you for all your help in getting some of the finest talented people I have ever read. We are overwhelmed with the responses that have been sent to me.
Can you please send another announcement, that the P2B team are now going over all the resumes and those who were selected to be invited to the event will be receiving a letter, via email any day now? The individuals receiving the email letter must bring the letter with them in order to gain entry into the P2B event at the Atrium.
Again, thank you for everything.
Kelly S. Carthens
Program Coordinator
NJIT-EDC
211 Warren Street
105 Lock Street
Newark,
NJ 07103
All:
I have been requested by my friend, Eli Amdur, to help NJIT find volunteers for
their incubator companies. NJIT will be hosting a MeetUp of incubator
organizations and prospective volunteers sometime between August 15th and
September 15th. This Meetup will be by INVITATION ONLY.
To be invited to the Meetup, you need to send an email and your resume to Kelly
Carthens at KSC2@adm.njit.edu . Your email subject line should read – "P2B Meetup
– Eli Amdur Referral". DO NOT call Kelly Carthens and only make one submission.
NJIT will try to match your resume to an organization. If you are a match, you
will receive an invitation to the Meetup. Not everyone can be matched to an
organization and therefore, not every one who submits a resume will be invited
to the Meetup.
Working at these incubator organizations will be on a VOLUNTARY BASIS at this
time. Performing voluntary work for these organizations DOES NOT guarantee that
you will receive an offer for permanent paid employment. If you are interested,
please visit www.njit-edc.org to view those incubator organizations who will
participate in the Meetup.
Below is more information relating to the Meetup.
Good luck.
Marty Latman
NJIT EDC P2B™ Meetup
The Enterprise Development Center (EDC), operated by the New Jersey Institute of
Technology (NJIT), is the largest business incubator in New Jersey
(www.njit-edc.org). The nearly 90 companies in residence are early-stage firms
that cover a wide variety of industries from Information Technology, Bio-tech,
Telecom, Life Science and Pharmaceuticals to Financial Services, E-commerce,
E-learning, Mail-Order and Telemarketing.
Many of these companies will need additional executive level help as they grow.
In the current economic climate, angel, venture capital and private equity
markets are playing smaller roles in funding the development of these companies
than was anticipated just a year ago. Most of the companies lack the funding to
make traditional hires. Marketplace strategies are changing, and our companies
are in need of your skill sets to get them into the marketplace with existing
products and services, as they continue to develop next generation products.
What We Seek
We are looking for displaced middle to executive level professionals who can
volunteer some time to work with early-stage companies and make a difference. We
are looking for people who can step in now and help build new corporate
functions from the ground up. We are looking for people who can work well with
a small team, even as they keep their sights on building a larger one.
Many of the EDC companies now have needs in Sales, Programming, Advertising,
Marketing, Accounting/Finance, Regulatory Matters, Product Management, Human
Resources and other areas. New opportunities are opening up every week.
What We Offer
In return for your volunteer services, you have the opportunity to fill in a
resume gap, obtain a solid reference, do meaningful work, learn new
skills/insights, associate with exciting innovators, expand your network, and
create positive change without jeopardizing your unemployment benefits as you
continue your job search.
You will also have access to the professional and corporate development
workshops at New Jersey's largest incubator, access to NJIT and its wealth of
opportunities and, while each company's situation is different, there exists the
possibility that improvement in the economy can put you first in line for the
firm's hiring needs.
How to Get Involved
The participation in the NJIT EDC P2B™ Meetup is by invitation only. If you
would like to attend, please send an e-mail to Kelly S. Carthens at
ksc2@adm.njit.edu that must include your resume. If your skills and experience
match the needs of one or more EDC companies, you will receive a return e-mail
confirmation informing you of the date, time and location of the event. Please
note that only the individuals on our confirmation list will be allowed into the
interview areas where you will meet face-to face with the startup companies that
have needs for your skill sets. .
The rest is up to you. You may find something that changes your present and
opens a new kind of future.
