For many of us, our resumes and networks get us in the door, but it's "personal chemistry" that closes the deal, whether it's landing a new job or making a new networking contact. How do you inject your personality into conversations with networking connections and discussions with interviewers?
On January 27th, speaker Barbara Szala, President of In-Person Communications, will lead an interactive session focusing on how to effectively communicate your unique personal qualities and connect with your listeners, entitled:
"BEYOND THE RESUME: MAKING THE PERSONAL CONNECTION"
Barbara will offer tips to help you enhance your job search capabilities by drawing on your own natural talents. You'll have the opportunity to get personalized coaching on how to project those intangible qualities--poise, presence, focus, energy--that immediately create a positive impression and win over your potential employers.
Take the challenge to present your One-Minute Personal Profile, and discover what it is about you personally that helps you connect with your listeners. Your presentation should be a thumbnail sketch of whatever will assist your peers in getting to know you outside of the workplace--your likes, dislikes, hobbies, education, family, community involvement, etc.
WE WILL BE RECORDING INDIVIDUAL PRESENTATIONS, so bring your own USB drive to the meeting and you can take home your personal video--an ideal tool for assessing your own effectiveness as a communicator.
