[KITlist-Tech] From Sue: Help for professionals from the EDD -- at no charge -- on 9/21 and 9/28

 

Hello Everyone,

I've heard from so many of you who are experts in your professions, but don't feel expert in skills for finding your next great job.

I wanted to alert you that ProMatch, which is a free program through the California EDD, that focuses on getting professionals back to work, has two orientations coming up.

ProMatch has availability to accept new participants in their Sunnyvale, CA location. The details from ProMatch are below, and I've met a lot of KIT List people who've found ProMatch to be very effective. Plus, many have donated their time to help other job seekers with this wonderful organization!

NOTE:
I've created a SEPARATE email list, called "KIT List Resources," that you can join to receive information about free resources, events and services that help job seekers. Since the KIT List is for actual job openings, and it needs to keep its focus, this new list is where we can bring effective and no-cost resources to your attention.

You can join by sending an email to KITlistResource-subscribe@yahoogroups.com. It's open to everyone, including job seekers, employers and recruiters.

Below are details on how to get valuable career help from ProMatch -- at no cost. Please pass this on to any other friends and colleagues who could benefit from this great resource!

Take care,

Sue Connelly
KIT List Founder

SUBJECT: How to Tap the Hidden Job Market
 
You’re a professional. And you realize deep down, you need to be on the inside track to land the next job in your career.
But to tap the hidden jobs, you need support. The kind you get from a strong network.
 
When you join ProMatch, you get all the networking support you need… at no charge.
 
How? California EDD and the NOVA Workforce Investment Board sponsor ProMatch to give you:
 
•             Professional networking opportunities so you tap into the hidden job market
•             Small group success teams who hold you accountable and support you in your search
•             Workshops where you hone your resume, polish your interviewing skills, and learn to  negotiate the offer
•             No fee sessions with career coaches and guest speakers who command over $100/hr on the outside
 
It’s your tax dollars at work. So, go ahead and get started at one of these ProMatch orientations...
