Job Seekers Roundtable Fri., April 3 from 1-2:30 p.m. – How To Sell Your Brand in Silence

April 2, 2015 by Leave a Comment

job seekers roundtableBe sure to tell your students about the Job Seekers Roundtable series, that’s all about giving students an edge in interviews.

This Friday’s Rountable is all about what you don’t say in the interview. The content of what you say in response to questions (and the content of questions you ask) is obviously exceedingly important in a job interview. What is less well known is the importance of the part of the interview that isn’t spoken – the way you present yourself and behave non-verbally.

Shoreline’s own Professor of Psychology Diana Knauf, will present tips on “selling your brand in silence.” As always top notch coffee and treats will be on hand, courtesy of Central Market.

This FREE event takes place Fri., April 3 in FOSS (5000 bldg.), room 5116 from 1-2:30 p.m. Job Seekers Rountables are sponsored by Shoreline’s Plus 50 program, but all are welcome to attend. We hope to see you there!

Need to Market Yourself Better? Check Out the Job Seekers Roundtable Feb. 27 for Tips!

February 26, 2015 by 2 Comments

lee mozenaThe Plus 50 program is thrilled to bring Lee Mozena of Zena Consulting to campus this Friday, Feb. 27 to participate in a Job Seekers roundtable discussion about personal branding.

When it comes to your own life you are marketing your personal brand every single day, whether you realize it or not. Marketing is how you present yourself to those around you and what you consistently offer to them. The work you do along with your own networks and friends are professional resources others can potentially utilize. When marketing yourself, it’s about consciously building that experience so that you can effectively get what you want in return from your life.

Lee Mozena of Zena Consulting will share personal branding ideas and give examples of how your brand can best stand out among the rest. Feel like you’ve got your personal brand down? Tell your students about this opportunity to learn to more effectively market themselves to employers.

More details of Lee’s services are found on her Linkedin page at:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/leemozena

Great conversation and networking opportunities (along with quality coffee and snacks, compliments of Central Market) await you!

When: Friday, February 27, 1:00-2:30 p.m.
Where: Shoreline Community College, Room 5116, Building 5000 (ground floor)
