November 12th, 6:30

A “TAILGATE” NETWORK MEETING THAT COMES WITH “GRIT & GRACE.”

The Hillsdale Career Networking Group invites you to throw on your favorite sports jersey or team logo, cook up your best tailgate dish, and bring a friend for a night full of connection and fun!

We’ll have raffles, great food, desserts, coffee, and plenty of laughs plus that unbeatable team spirit that makes this event one of the best nights of the year.

It’s more than networking, it’s our community coming together to celebrate teamwork, perseverance, and the power of showing up.

Don’t miss it ! This is our game day!

November 12th promises to be a truly special night for our Tailgate Meeting. Over the years, we’ve been privileged to welcome incredible Sports Legends who’ve inspired us with their stories of perseverance, change, and success both on and off the field.

But tonight, we’re changing it up. Our guest isn’t an athlete, though he’s certainly run his share of marathons. This evening, we welcome Paul Herdemian, a top CFO who chose to step away from corporate status to build a life of alignment. Paul brings with him hard-earned lessons from Wall Street, startups, and solo parenting, lessons about endurance, clarity, and choosing presence over perfection.

He’ll share what it truly means to lead from within, to find strength not just in success, but in purpose. This is a story not just about business, but about life, leadership, and the quiet courage it takes to show up from grit to grace.

Please join us on Wednesday evening as Paul shares his incredible story.  

Networking will begin at 6:30p if you would like to get a jump start connecting with members attending our “speed dating.” We will also have a raffle, good food, and other exciting surprises for the event. Please bring copies of your resume(s) and business cards to exchange with others. 

Bring your great and positive attitude. Refreshments will be served.

Bring A FRIEND, COLLEAGUE, FAMILY MEMBER OR COLLEGE GRAD IF YOU LIKE.

As always, reach out to Janelle Razzino at any time for even more help with ramping up your job interview skills, knowing what the hiring company most wants to know about you, getting “un-stuck” in your job search, regaining your confidence, answering tough interview questions, acquiring the leads and contacts you need, and so much more. 

                                                             

The Hillsdale Career Network Group leaders are John F. Carvelli, Janelle Razzino and Gary Gabaccia. John and Janelle are both parishioners at St. John’s. Janelle is an Executive Recruiter located in Westwood, New Jersey and Gary is a former Recruiting Leader for IBM and a parishioner at Our Lady Mother of the Church. This job search network group is suitable for everyone in transition. The group discusses networking, landing the job on the first interview, new ideas for resume campaigns, identifying target companies, changing careers and a whole host of other topics. The group meets on the second Wednesday of every month in the Parish Center.

The Hillsdale Career Networking Group presents guest speakers on topics such as boosting your confidence and energy, creating a positive daily attitude, meeting others in a network group for the exchange of valuable insights, helping others to help each other and successfully overcoming the speed bumps that afflict everyone’s job campaign.

Please feel free to forward this note to ANYONE you think would benefit from joining us. Better yet, bring them with you! Everyone is welcome, and each month we cover a range of topics suitable to anyone in transition, including networking, resume preparation, interviewing and variety of others. Our speakers come with a passion for their topics and a genuine desire to help, so let’s all help each other in the pursuit of that life-changing opportunity. And remember, it’s all about what YOU find valuable, so please let us know the subject matter of most interest to YOU.

More Information: Work Team meets every Monday morning. Networking starts from 9 to 9:30am and the meeting starts at 9:30 to 10:30 while virtual.  Members hold each other accountable at weekly (virtual) meetings for conducting a job search in earnest. Historically, the team has enjoyed a very high rate of “landings” by those conducting an active and vigorous job search.

Based on the Lee-Hecht-Harrison model, it’s more of a project management team made up of people committed to helping each other in the job search. By attending regularly and staying focused on key tasks, meetings serve as an advisory panel that knows you and your search and can offer answers to the questions that come up in job hunting.

Help others to help you (especially for the first few meetings) by having a prepared “elevator pitch” to introduce yourself. Jobs open up because there’s a problem to solve or a need to fill.
