The Breakfast Club NJ Presents:Melanie Szlucha speaking on the topic of Marketing Yourself. What's your personal "brand?" Don't have one? Don't worry, you're not alone. The meeting Saturday, June 11 8:00 AM
It's hot outside, come inside this Saturday morning to the monthly meeting of The Breakfast Club New Jersey to heat up your Networking and career search skills. Who are you and what is the story that your "marketing collateral" tells about you when someone sees or reads it? What is the first (and sometimes lasting) impression a person has when they meet you, look at your business card, email address, or LinkedIn Profile? You need to get past this in order to build that relationship and want them to look at your product, which is you!
"Who are you and what do you do?"
This Month's Topic: Marketing Yourself. What's your personal "brand?" Don't have one? Don't worry, you're not alone.
This session discusses why you must know what your accomplishments are and be comfortable discussing them in an interview. I'll provide tips to help you understand what other people are thinking while you're talking about yourself, and how to look for accomplishments in your career that will be interesting to an employer. We'll also work on developing an "Elevator Speech" that makes your networking efforts more effective.
Lastly, we'll talk about the importance of having an effective business card (and no, not all business cards are effective), creating a solid LinkedIn profile and why some people may want to have their own website to showcase their work.
About the Speaker: Melanie Szlucha - She has coached numerous job seekers to become more confident and prepared during the job interview process as well as written resumes that clearly convey a candidate's benefits to the company.
Melanie has over 15 years of experience as a hiring manager, and 5+ years as a job search coach. She has grown her business primarily through networking and word of mouth, and teaches clients to use those same skills to ramp up their search. She has an undergraduate degree in Business and an MBA from St. John Fisher College in Rochester, NY. http://www.Redinc.biz
Networking begins at 7:30 am, meeting starts promptly at 8:00 am.
Be sure to tell your friends and bring them along. Be a part of our growing network of Job Seekers, Hiring Managers, Recruiters, Career Coaches, and people who want to be able to help themselves and each other.

Job Search Tips that Work? They Worked for Me!
Many job search experts, including me, are out there giving tips about how
to find jobs. I thought I'd give you all some advice based on my own recent
job search - one that got me several interviews and a part-time job! In my
search, I was open to accepting a part-time position as something steady and
stable while I started my own business.
Here's what I did:
