COMBINED DINNER MTG – TUESDAY, May 28th

Recruiter Night Out

 

Raffle: Donated by Razzino Associates

 

On Tuesday evening, May 28th, MIS Network Associates (MNA), IT-Networking, the ETP Network, TENG, The Breakfast Club of NJ, 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:

 

-          Contingency:          Vinay Singh      – Robert Half Technology

-          Contingency:          Janelle Razzino – Razzino Associates

-          Corporate:               Jack Renahan   -- Rema Tip Top NA

-          Consulting:             Sue McLean     -- The Connors Group

 

The panel will be moderated by Bob Larson of Berman Larson Kane.

As president of Berman Larson Kane, which was named "Best Employer in New Jersey" by NJBIZ magazine for both 2008 and 2007. Bob leads one of the country's foremost information technology and human resource staffing firms and one of the first nationally-credentialed firms in the United States.

Bob is a nationally recognized speaker and author whose published works include Aim, Shoot, Get Hired! and numerous articles in a wide range of professional journals and magazines.

In addition to his work as president, he serves as chairman of the board of the National Association of Personnel Services, a national organization that represents more than 1,000 staffing firms. He has also served the Association as district director as well as president of the New Jersey Staffing Association and certified employment arbitrator and staffing ethics chairperson for New Jersey.

Inducted into the Staffing Hall of Fame in 2007 and the recipient of numerous awards for his work throughout the years, Bob began his career in 1980 when he was one of two founding partners of both Berman & Larson and Larson Consulting Services. He purchased the firm from his partner in 1988 and purchased HR Pros, a Rose Kane company in 1999. In 2008 he acquired a clinical and medical affairs recruiting and consulting firm.

Holding a bachelor's degree from New Jersey City University where he majored in sociology and minored in computer science. He has completed graduate studies in human resources and people development at New School for Social Research. Bob earned CPC (certified personnel consultant) designation in 1992.

Unedited questions for the panel are included below. These questions are subject to editing until Friday, May 24th, 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 May 28th.  Again, ad hoc questions will be accepted by the Moderator during the discussion with the panelists and Bob Larson may have a few questions for the panelists himself.

 

The schedule for the dinner meeting on May 28th 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 Bob Larson

-          9:30 Approx – Raffle – You Must Be There To Win

 

The informal networking groups are so helpful in networking that we will do the "speed dating" again on the 28th 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 $30 for everyone if forwarded by mail or other to John Sampson by COB Friday, May 10th 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 lizanne@ignitetheflame.com  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 the weekend of May 25/26 for initial review and correction.  The RSVP list will facilitate networking at the May 28th 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 28th.  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 June 4th.

 

The cost of the dinner will be $45 for everyone after the COB on May 10th and before COB on May 27th.

 

We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on the 28th.  Anyone who attends on the 28th and whose check has not been received by COB on the 28th 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 May 28th.

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 28th, 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.
