It's been awhile since I wrote a post to this blog.
So to kick start the blog, I thought I would write up a vignette about our group...
------------------------
St Mary Job Search Support Group
We are a
peer to peer job search networking group.
The format
for our meetings is in three segments.
- · A moderator, sometimes a guest speaker, does a presentation or leads a discussion on a relevant job search topic.
- · Introductions. Each person introduces themselves and tells the group what they are looking for in their next position.
- · Networking including all attendees getting brainstormed advice from that night’s group.
We meet the
third Tuesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. in the St Mary Convent Meeting Room. Our
meetings are open to anyone.
The St Mary
Job Search Support Group is beginning its 4th year and over 30
people who have attended our meetings have landed.
If you are
searching for a job, we hope that you will drop by one of our meetings! We look
forward to meeting you!
St Mary Job
Search Support is run by a three-person team.
Dan Lenhart is the Chair of the St Mary Job Search
Support Group. Dan has over 30
years experience as a Human Resource professional and brings a wealth knowledge
about the job search from both the job seeker’s point view and that of the
hiring manager.
Linda Cella
is our interviewing expert. When discussing interviews, Linda goes into
great detail that many often miss in interviews and offers valuable advice on
both face to face interviews and phone screens.
Andy Ancel is the networking expert. Andy worked
for Refer.com where he learned the “Refer way” of networking and nurturing
relationships from one of the best entrepreneurs in the country. Andy has
presented his networking presentation at St Mary Job Search Support and also at
Monday’s@7 in Westport.
