Hi John – I hope this note finds you doing well and enjoying the warmer weather. You told me I could always contact you for networking purposes and as a result I wanted to see if you might be able to lend me an assist.
I am working with an insurance client in Central NJ to help them find someone to oversee their Business Analysis IT function in support of my client's Property & Casualty business. This is a senior role, reporting to the CIO and will have C-Level interaction, as well as relationship mgmt responsibility with the IT development teams, the IT PMO, and the IT QA organization. Do you happen to know anyone within your network who led a business analysis/requirement gathering organization who you might be able to refer to me for this role? This role will pay in the high $100's as a base salary, and will also pay a significant bonus, to those that deserve one. I have cut/paste below the high-level job description for your review and potential forward. Thanks in advance for any and all help here. – Steven

MNA COMBINED DINNER MTG – TUESDAY, June 5th, 2012
On Tuesday evening, June 5th, MIS Network Associates (MNA), IT-Networking (IT NET), TENG, Monmouth Networking, The Breakfast Club of New Jersey (TBCNJ), ETP Network, and Careers In Transition (CIT) will host a combined dinner meeting for members, alumni, friends, recruiters, and guests at the Holiday Inn in Totowa NJ.
Our speaker will be Abby Kohut, otherwise known to job seekers as "Absolutely Abby", a leader in corporate recruiting for the past 16 years. She has held positions such as Senior Director of Recruiting & Career Development for Kaplan, Inc., Employment Director at Sabert Corporation, and Manager of Global Recruiting for Alpharma, Inc. She is currently the President of Staffing Symphony, LLC, a staffing consulting company, and over the past 6 years has had clients in the healthcare, pharmaceutical, non-profit, legal, and publishing industries. A leader in her field, and a well-known speaker on campaigning to get connected, Abby can help you find the position you are striving for. She has facilitated employment for attendees at over 200 events like this in the recent past, and has set a goal to help one million job seekers.
The schedule for the dinner meeting on June 5th will be:
- 6:00 to 7:00 pm – Registration, "speed dating", and cash bar
- 7:00 to 7:15 pm – General introductions
- 7:15 pm -- Dinner
- 8:00 pm – Abby Kohut
Following our usual meeting format, after you have registered and added your resume, etc. to the handout piles, everyone will participate in a series of informal networking groups i.e. "speed dating", before we sit down for dinner and the general introductions. Briefly, the "speed dating" informal groups will consist of 3 to 5 attendees and last a period of about 10 minutes – or 2 minutes per person. At the end of the 10 minutes, the groups will breakup and find new "partners". Suggested dialogues for the groups will be provided at the registration along with a numbered RSVP list – see below.
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 Monday, June 4th 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.
To facilitate the networking on the event on June 5th, we will create an RSVP list of those planning to attend which will include 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 and your last permanent or consulting affiliation should be included in your RSVP. An initial list of attendees will be emailed to all the RSVPs, members of MNA, TENG, Monmouth Networking, IT-Net, ETP Network, CIT, and other interested parties on Sunday, June 3rd. The RSVP list will facilitate networking at the dinner meeting and can be used to communicate with attendees in advance or after the dinner meeting.
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 5th. 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!
We will accept a LIMITED number of walk-ins on the June 5th. Anyone who attends on the 5th and whose check has not been received by COB on June 4th will be charged $60 WITHOUT EXCEPTION. There will be NO refunds and no-shows WILL be billed. Walk-ins will not be on the preliminary RSVP or have a numbered badge.
Again, bring 50 copies of your bio/resume, leads, or materials you wish to be included in the handout the evening of June 5th.
Directions to the Holiday Inn at One Rt 46 Westbound in Totowa Park can be found at www.holiday-inn.com/totowanj Traffic congestion in the Totowa area at rush hour is VERY substantial! ! Plan to allow at least an additional half hour to reach the Holiday Inn by 6pm on the 5th
If you would like to help out at the meeting on the June 5th, particularly with the "speed dating", volunteer to be a "Meeting Marshall" and 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.
