INTERACTIVE TALK-SHOW TO DEBUT ON 107.7 THE BRONC ON SEPTEMBER 19

INTERACTIVE TALK-SHOW TO DEBUT ON 107.7 THE BRONC ON SEPTEMBER 19
Not so long ago, job-seekers and other career-minded professionals used to pore
over the Sunday classifieds in search of that next position, the one that might
take them to the next level of business.
Starting September 19, career-climbers can simply tune into 107.7 The Bronc, the
on-campus radio station at Rider University, on Sunday mornings at 8 a.m. for a
new and interactive call-in program entitled Your Career is Calling: Your Weekly
Appointment for Career Choices, Decisions and Success. The one-hour show, hosted
by Frank Kovacs '84 and Rod Colon, will debut this weekend around the topic of
"Building, Tracking and Maintaining Your Network." It's a subject particularly
close to the heart of Kovacs, a 1984 Rider graduate who is the founder and CEO
of The Breakfast Club NJ, a 3,000-member networking group established to promote
career growth, special networking and help people in career transition.
"Radio was a logical next step for us," explained Kovacs, who founded Breakfast
Club NJ in the wake of the September 11 attacks to help restore what he calls "a
semblance of order" to the lives of myriad professionals who, during that time
of economic and financial uncertainty, suddenly found themselves on the job
market after years of relative security.
"So many people were out of tune with the current ways of the market," said
Kovacs, who co-hosts the show with Colon , CEO of The ETP (Empowering Today's
Professionals) Network. "They hadn't looked for a new job in 20 years, and
suddenly had to represent themselves again."
For years, Kovacs had been a senior manager at a major New Jersey Bank, and had
seen corporate culture shape the role of people in his role – and not always for
the better.
"In the earlier part of my career, a huge part of managing was the career
management of the people who reported to them," he explained. "In many cases,
the focus on that had lessened a great deal, but I had always prided myself on
developing people along the way."
Fueled by this passion for steering careers in the right direction, Kovacs began
his small networking club, meeting once a month in accessible, central
locations. It has since grown by leaps and bounds, incorporating social media
like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter to expand his base of professional contacts.
"Job-hunting is a game of inches," said Kovacs, who estimates that 85 percent of
jobs are obtained as the result of networking. "If we can give them that little
edge, we remain vital."
Your Career is Calling is the next step in Kovacs's commitment to area
networking, and he calls his partnership with Rider and 107.7 The Bronc a key
opportunity to expand his reach. "I think we'll introduce ourselves to a whole
new audience, in addition to the people who we're already in touch with through
The Breakfast Club NJ," he said. Your Career is Calling can be heard on the FM
dial, as well as online at http://www.rider.edu, either live on Sunday mornings
or anytime via podcast.
Other topics to follow this season include "Run Your Career as a Business," "The
Hidden Job Market," and How to Start a Conversation." Kovacs and Colon will
welcome guests in studio and take callers to discuss the day's topic, as well as
other career, employment and networking questions. Listeners can reach the
studio at 877-900-1077.
Kovacs is eager to launch the show, and hopes it has the same success as The
Breakfast Club NJ.
"It's a good feeling when we see our people helping each other," he said.
