Unedited questions for the panel are
included below. These questions are subject to editing until Friday, January
8th, when the final list will be published electronically to the previous
recipients.  Please return your comments
on the questions to John Sampson at jcsspike@yahoo.com
ASAP.  The final questions will be
available in hard copy at the registration desk the evening of the dinner
meeting on January 12th.  Again, ad hoc
questions will be accepted by the moderator during the discussion with the
panelists and Abby Kohut may have a few questions for the panelists herself.

 

The schedule for the dinner
meeting on January 12th will be:

 

-        
6:00 to 6:45 pm
– Registration, "speed dating", and cash bar

-        
6:45 to 7:15 pm
– Personal  Introductions

-        
7:15 pm - Dinner

-        
8:00 pm -
Panel discussion moderated by Abby Kohut

-        
9:30 approx -
Raffle – You must be present to win

 

The informal networking groups are
so helpful in networking that we will do the "speed dating" again on the 12th
before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions.  Briefly, these informal "dates" consist of up
to 4 people and last for 5 to 10 minutes. 
At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups break up and new ones are
formed with different participants. Suggested dialogues for your "speed dating"
encounters will be provided at the registration desk in case you are at a loss
for what to say during these conversations.

 

There will be an opportunity to
circulate up to 75 copies of your resume, personal bio, leads, or other
appropriate material in a handout for each participant from the dinner.

 

The cost will be $45 for everyone
if forwarded by mail or other to John Sampson by COB
Thursday, December 24th at 2 Blackfoot Cir, Wayne NJ 07470.  Checks should be made out to John Sampson who
can be reached by phone at 973-248-3251 or via email at jcsspike@yahoo.com.  Reservations can also be made by contacting
Lizanne Fiorentino at adminedg@optonline.net
but checks must be sent directly to John. 

 

An initial list of attendees will
be emailed to all the RSVPs, members of MNA, the ETP
Network, TENG, The Breakfast Club of NJ, Monmouth Ntwkg, IT-Net, CIT
and other interested parties over the weekend of January 9/10th.  The RSVP list will facilitate networking at
the January 12th meeting and can be used to communicate with attendees in
advance or after the dinner meeting. For those attendees who are working,
current work affiliation, email address, three previous companies you've worked
for/consulted at, professional job interest or position availability must be
included in your RSVP.

 

For those attendees who are in
transition, three target companies should be included in your RSVP as well as
the type of position you seek.

 

A "final" numbered RSVP list of
attendees will be available along with the pre-published questions and an ID badge
at the registration desk on the 12th.  Your number on the final RSVP list should be
part of your introduction:  "I'm number x
on the RSVP list …". All attendees should have their sharp, crisp, 30 second
elevator speech at the ready.  Too many
"ahs, dees and doeses" will be cut off unceremoniously. Remember, you and your
introduction will be between the rest of the attendees and dinner!

 

A final RSVP list of the actual
attendees will be emailed to everyone who participated by January 16th.

 

We will accept a LIMITED number
of walk-ins on the 12th.  Anyone who
attends on the 12th and whose check has not been received by COB
on the 11th will be charged $60 WITHOUT 
EXCEPTION. There will be NO refunds and no shows WILL be billed.

 

Again, bring 75 copies of your
bio/resume, leads, or materials you wish to be included in the handout the
evening of January 12th.

Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt 46 Westbound in Totowa can be
found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj.
Traffic congestion on Rt 46 at rush hour is always substantial, so allow an
extra half hour to get to the Holiday Inn.

Dues are due for MNA Members.

 

If you would like to help out at
the meeting on the 12th, volunteer to be a "Meeting Marshall".  Call John Sampson at 973-248-3251 for
details.  We can use your help!!!

 

Please join us for what always is
a well attended evening of lively discussion, great networking opportunities,
and a chance to just catch up.

 

Remember snow dates 1/13 or 1/19.

LEAD:  Bus Continuity - CT - Contract to hire

Posted by: "john sampson" jcsspike@yahoo.com   jcsspike

Fri Jan 8, 2010 9:30 am (PST)



This afternoon my client
manger from a international  bank in the Stamford , CT
area called me about a new position in his team. The person he's looking
to bring on should have a background in Business Continuity Programs

This role is a contract
to hire - probably contract for at least 1 year in Stamford and then convert to a direct hire.
There is a possibility that the department may move from Stamford
to Manhattan in
the next 2 years.
