Description

BE A "PLAYER" in the Interview, NOT AN "APPLICANT"
How to NOT take NO for an answer

Do you have the right temperament and EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE for the new company?

  • Are you impeccable with your WORD?
  • Do you say what you think a company wants to hear rather than talking about what is true to you?
  • Are you COMPLACENT about taking NO for an answer? Do you get a No and simply walk away? Should you?

We know the answer to these questions, what we need help with is pushing the envelope with hiring managers and HR so that we get an opportunity to demonstrate what we do well. And GET the job!

Join us for an interesting discussion on this topic facilitated by Executive Recruiter Janelle Razzino.

Janelle has been in Executive Search for over 28 years, recruiting high level executives to the tri-state and greater Metro New York area. A contingency firm with a retained search process, Janelle understands the client/candidate needs. Customer service is always at the forefront of each search, the ULTIMATE COMPETITIVE advantage.

Janelle's specialties include executive level placements for the Global 2000. Disciplines include Finance, Accounting and Information Technology across all industries. Janelle has been featured in the New York Times and CBS World News.

Organized by

is one of Westchester County's perennial faith-based groups specifically designed to assist the unemployed, underemployed and others in a state of career transition. EARN been holding monthly meetings since 1989.

The program was established by a small group of parishioners with human resources backgrounds with the intent of educating attendees about the job search process and by providing them opportunities to develop their networking skills. Essentially, EARN's coordinators help individuals to learn what it takes to uncover job leads and to increase their number of potential contacts. Not an employment agency, EARN provides valuable resources to connect attendees to work, but does not provide job placement.

The monthly meeting has four phases. Initially, there is News You Can Use -- an update on events. This is usually followed by a knowledgeable guest speaker who delves into various aspects of the job search, such as resume preparation, networking, negotiating and interviewing. Third, a coordinator facilitates a formal networking process whereby each participant tells of his/her background, aspirations and job search successes/setbacks experienced over the last month. Finally, informal networking takes place. Attendees do a one-on-one or small group interactions, for example, depending upon what transpired in the earlier networking phase.

EARN also publishes a monthly newsletter entitled Employment Exchange which lists job openings and situations wanted.
