Subject: GenY Networking Group - Reminder - November 5th Meeting


To all the Friends of the GenY Networking Group - Thank you again for your continued support!


The next GenY Networking Group session will be held Wednesday, November 5th, 7 PM, Library of the Chathams (see flyer attached).

We are pleased to welcome back a 'friend' of GenY Networking – Tony Calabrese.

Tony Calabreseis the founder of Absolute Transitions, LLCand a Certified Five O'Clock Club Career Coach. Tony enjoys working with clients who are in job search or looking to change careers. The Five O'Clock Club methodology offers his clients a strategic and research based approach to their job search and has proven to help those clients that implement its methodologies receive offers on average in half the time of all other job seekers. Tony received his coaching certification from the Institute for Professional Excellence in Coaching (IPEC) and as such is able to offer his clients the unique combination of working with them both through their career search and life coaching issues as part of his practice.
Most recently Tony has done Career Coach Consulting work with REA – Partners in Transition. In that role he provides career coaching and acclimation assistance to accompanying spouses of employees whose companies move them to the New Jersey/New York area. He resides in Maplewood, NJ with his wife, Carolina.
In our meeting Tony will present How to Select Your Job Targets. How often do we meet and hear the same target companies at networking meetings? Topics discussed include -

· What are the characteristics/components of a search target?

· Brainstorming possible job positions

· Measuring your job targets

· Developing your A, B and C lists of companies

· What steps to take after deciding a target is worthy to pursue

We will cover the above and so much more! So come out and join us - I am confident that you will enjoy this evening, and that Tony will not disappoint. So please plan to attend and spread the word.

This meeting's Agenda –

- Introductions - hone your 'elevator pitch'; master this basic element of job search, networking, interviewing
- Tony Calabrese, How to Select Your Job Targets

*** 2014 Calendar- Future meeting dates – Nov 19, Dec 8 SPECIAL JOINT MEETING – More info to follow ***

If you have attended this group in the past and found the evening to be both rewarding and informative please spread the word, and invite a friend.
Finally for all cc'd on this message - if you know a twenty-something (or early thirty-something) who could benefit from a forum dedicated to the specific dynamic of Generation Y please forward this email. For more information see the group's Facebook - GenY Networking Group, or contact me.

The Breakfast Club NJ Presents: "Selling
Yourself" by Joey Himelfarb

Saturday November 8, 2014 at 8:00am ET
Please share with other groups you may be in.
The Presentation: "Selling Yourself"
Aristotle believed an important skill any
person could have was the ability to influence.

Have you ever had to convince your
colleagues, department heads, or company executives to try a different tactic
in acquiring new business? Ever tried to get your customers to buy your stuff?
Ever tried to get your kids to behave a certain way? Ever go on a
job interview?

Join us for a thought provoking, highly
interactive, and entertaining program that will demystify your views of selling
and help you to better sell yourself. With a blank white board or flip chart, 2
different colored markers, and an audience thirsting for knowledge, you will:

*
Discover how you can apply selling theories and techniques to help you land
whatever job you desire. (Hint: no rocket science involved, but Rocket
Scientists can surely benefit.)

*
Hear new ideas about old sales strategies that focus your attention on getting
hiring managers to consider you for the job you want. (Make them wonder how
they ever got along without you.)

*
Learn how to put a different spin on the job search activities you currently
perform...so you can distinguish yourself from your competition...so you can
bolster your pipeline...so you can improve your chances of getting employed.
(Make the people you talk to feel glad they met you.)

About the speaker:
Joey Himelfarb (all his
friends call him Joey) has been selling for over 20 years. Whether it's
multi-million dollar computing and telecommunications systems to Fortune 100
companies around the world, or consumer products in a homeowner's backyard or
driveway, or even their own home, Joe enjoys helping his clients ge from where
they are to where they want to be.

Joe's passion is being on stage and encouraging people to maintain
positive mental attitudes. His contention is that we sell everyday and being
negative serves no function. To that end, and on a regular basis, Joey
facilitates seminars to unemployed individuals as well as small business
owners.

Most people who have participated in these seminars have learned new
tactics for selling themselves and maintaining positive mental attitudes in
their professional and personal lives. And some attendees have actually seen
and heard a unique similarity in Joey's presentation style with a famous
comedian who has had success hosting several Oscar Award Show Ceremonies.

Networking
begins at 7:30 am, meeting starts promptly at 8:00 am.
There
is a $10 fee at the door to cover the cost of the room.
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.
