Special CNG Speed Networking Event

Location: Bernards Township Library , Basking Ridge, NJ

City State Zip: Basking Ridge, NJ

Notes:
Join us Thursday, September 16th for a special event. Instead of our standard format, John Hadley will share simple tips for networking, and guide us through a series of speed networking mini-meetings.

Networking is a key life skill that provides you access to new perspectives and resources you can draw on throughout your career, and is absolutely critical to an effective job search. However, many of us don't know how to do it well, and therefore find it uncomfortable. John will provide pointers you can apply on the spot to create a fun and productive evening.

The speed networking will be conducted in a fashion similar to speed dating, where attendees are first paired and then rotated to a new partner every few minutes. Our goal is to equip and encourage you to proactively build a powerful network to accelerate your job search, career or business development.

Don't forget to bring a name tag, and a supply of business cards!

MODERATOR

JOHN HADLEY coaches job seekers frustrated with their search, providing marketing skills to land the job and pay they deserve.
