Mark your Calendars - The Breakfast Club NJ - Saturday September 11t

Posted by: "Brian Mecca" Brian.Mecca@yahoo.com   bd_mecca

Tue Sep 7, 2010 3:42 pm (PDT)



Make sure you mark your calendars and plan to attend our next Breakfast Club
meeting Saturday August 14th. Networking at 7:30 am, meeting starts

This Month's Topic: RECRUITERS & HIRING EXECUTIVIES: How to sell them
successfully the first time.

For people in job transition, the HR department is not the main gatekeeper
limiting a candidate's ability to generate interviews and job offers. It's
not even lack of industry experience. Rather, it's the Executive
Recruiter's and the Hiring Executive's desire for basic information at the
beginning of the search process as well as quality "sales support" materials
during the interviewing process.

This program will discuss the two most common impediments preventing
candidates from getting interviews and meaningful job offers; one of which
is little known. Topics include: the basics of the hiring process, who is
your customer and what motivates them, how best to position yourself against
the competition, how to communicate your value, and the 6 best strategies
for closing the interview.
