St. Catherine’s Support Circle to host job-seekers event

RIVERSIDE—An SCSC Presentation Via Zoom

It’s Not All About You

Thursday, January 13, 2022, from 7- 8:15 pm

When we find ourselves at a career inflection point, our thoughts often turn inward first. What do I want? What do I need? What will make me more fulfilled in my work? While these introspective questions are very important and can help determine direction, they should not be featured prominently in conversations with our Career Champions, those who can hire, promote or enable our career growth. Jim Daly, Executive and Career Transition Coach, will recommend how to better engage our Career Champions in a way that’s more about them. During this interactive session, Jim will explore 3 critical actions for a more successful job search.

Assessing the challenges and opportunities – do your homework

Clarifying your value proposition – identify your assets

Delivering an aligned message – to the decision-makers or influencers

This will be a thought-provoking and inspiring interactive session with takeaways you can implement right away!

Join us and bring your questions! RSVP required: Please RSVP to meeting Chair Chris Brugo at cbrugo@gmail.com by Monday, January 10. You’ll receive an email response with the Zoom link prior to the meeting.
