Job Seekers’ Roundtable for Fri., Jan. 27: Accountemps/Robert Half Agency
Roundtable is back for 2017! This Friday’s Roundtable is from 1-2:30 p.m. in the PUB Room 9201.
Are you ready to get a paycheck? Is it a temporary job you have in mind – that is, just something to make do until the dream job arrives – or is it something more permanent in an office setting? Either way, if you stop by Roundtable this Friday, your chances of becoming employed very soon will increase dramatically. Below is an excerpt from a very nice card I once received from Roundtable participant, Kathy Tiedman:
“My contact with your speaker from Accountemps facilitated contact with a recruiter at Robert Half and ultimately led to my placement in a long-term, temporary position.”
Kathy went on to say that the experience boosted her confidence and has added some attractive cache to her resume.
And wouldn’t you know it, Elizabeth Goodnow from Accountemps / Robert Half Agency is our featured guest for this Friday!
Please come by, bring your resume and business card, and arrange for a one-on-one with Elizabeth. She and the folks at Accountemps have been awesome over the past couple years and have landed many Roundtablers much-needed employment.
We’ll of course have coffee and treats on hand, compliments of Central Market. Have a friend or family member looking for work? Please bring them along.
See you this Friday – and as always, Good Luck Out There!
