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

Sat Sep 24, 2011 7:32 am (PDT)



COMBINED DINNER MTG – TUESDAY, September  27th
Recruiter Night Out
 
 
On Tuesday evening, September 27th, MIS Network Associates (MNA), IT-Networking, the ETP Network, TENG, The Breakfast Club of NJ (TBCNJ), Monmouth Networking, and Careers In Transition (CIT) will host a combined Recruiter Night Out dinner meeting for members, alumni, friends, and guests at The Holiday Inn in Totowa, NJ.  The Recruiter Night Out will include a dialogue with a panel of four recruiters from the venues listed below responding to pre-published questions and ad hoc inquiries from the dinner meeting attendees:
 
-         Corporate:            Jack Renahan – REMA Tip Top NA
-         Consulting:           Sam Velu  -- Informatic Technologies
-         Contingency:        Gordon Mamone – Gotham Technology Group
-         Consulting::          Carolyn Mandaro – Mitchell Martin
 
The panel will be moderated by Joe Gadino.
 
Unedited questions for the panel are included below. These questions are subject to editing until Friday, September 23th, 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 September 27th.  Again, ad hoc questions will be accepted by the Moderator during the discussion with the panelists and Joe Gadino may have a few questions for the panelists himself.
 
The schedule for the dinner meeting on September 27th will be:
 
-         6:00 to 6:45 pm – Registration, "speed dating", and cash bar
-         6:45 to 7:15 pm -- Introductions
-         7:15 pm             -- Dinner
-         8:00 pm             -- Panel discussion moderated by Joe Gadino
 
The informal networking groups are so helpful in networking that we will do the "speed dating" again on the 27th 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 50 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 Tuesday, September 26th 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, TBCNJ, Monmouth Ntwkg, IT-Net, CIT and other interested parties the weekend of September 24/25 for initial review and correction.  The RSVP list will facilitate networking at the September 27th 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 27th.  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 first week in October.
 
We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on the 27th.  Anyone who attends on the 27th and whose check has not been received by COB on the 27th will be charged $60 WITHOUT EXCEPTION. There will be NO refunds and no shows WILL be billed.
 
Again, bring 50 copies of your bio/resume, leads, or materials you wish to be included in the handout the evening of  September 27th.
Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt 46 Westbound in Totowa can be found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj
 
Dues are due for MNA Members.
 
If you would like to help out at the meeting on the 27th, 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.

It made me think about my biggest mistake trying to �network.�
For a long time I didn�t get much out of the meetings, until I changed
something.
My mistake wasn�t that I didn�t have business cards, or that my 30 second
commercial was as bad as everyone else�s.
My mistake was that I went to those meetings with the wrong purpose in
mind.
I was hoping to get filled, and get questions answered.
Week after week I went, hoping to get. And I didn�t get as much as I
needed, and I felt unfulfilled.
Then, I realized I should go to those meetings and GIVE. I listened for
opportunities to give leads, or introduce contacts. I looked for chances to
help, and strengthen, and encourage.
When I switched from hoping to GET to wanting to GIVE, the meetings, and
the results, completely changed.
I finally looked forward to going to those meetings.
I made more meaningful contacts (since I was a giver).
I always left feeling fulfilled.
And I started to get more. I got leads, and ideas, and encouragement, in a
way that I wasn�t getting before.
I don�t know what your mistakes are right now, but if you are networking
to GET, I encourage you to take a few months and concentrate on GIVING, and
see how that goes� see what�s different.
For me, it made all the difference!
And that's the point of it all! If you don't like the results, are not
getting the outcomes you seek, CHANGE your thoughts, your actions, or the
perspective, and you'll get different results.
It works! And keep coming back to meetings.
Our Next Parsippany meeting is October 14. register here:
