SUMMARY:Scismic Webinar: 30 Seconds to Sell Yourself
DESCRIPTION:Do you have an elevator pitch to help you convey your career goals at networking events? If not\, Jayne Mattson\, author and career coach can help. \nNetworking is a key component of career advancement\, whether you are actively job-seeking or not. \nThe key to successful networking is being clear about what you want so that people you interact with know how to help\, who to connect you to\, and what actions to recommend. \nYou might be asked\, “What are you looking to do next?” and you might be tempted to leave your options wide open\, so you say something generic like\, “I want a role where I can use my skills and add value to a company.” But that doesn’t give people much information to recommend anything specific. In today’s job market\, people who could connect you with employers\, and employers themselves want you to be more specific. What skills do you want to use and what value will you bring to a company? \nJayne Mattson\, Career Coach\, will help you become clearer on what you are looking for by developing a 30-second commercial that will attract attention and inspire action. \nWhether you’re a job seeker\, entrepreneur\, or simply want to improve your self-presentation skills\, this event is for you! Don’t miss this opportunity to boost your personal brand and stand out from the crowd. Join us for 30 Seconds to Sell Yourself and start mastering the art of self-promotion today! \nSign up link: https://bit.ly/30SecondsCD
