What is a value proposition letter?
It’s a brief statement (100-150 words) that succinctly explains a candidate’s unique qualities, skills, and accomplishments.
In other words, it states how you will add value to a company.
Using persuasion, value proposition letters explain how you can solve a problem or fix a pain point in a company better than anyone else, thanks to your expertise and unique offerings.
Attend this Seminar/workshop and you will
- Learn the who, what, where, when, why, and how of the Value Proposition Letter
- Learn how it differs from the cover letter.

Dr. Amy Geffen will be presenting “Combat Ageism in Your Job Search”.
The workshop will take place virtually via Zoom. Please feel free to register and share with those whom you feel may benefit attending this workshop.
One of the subtle, insidious forms of discrimination that workers face is one that all of us will be up against some day: ageism. If you are over 40 and looking for work, you may find that you are having an even harder time than when you were younger and less experienced. And the older you get – 45, 50, 55… –, the more challenging it becomes to make headway against prejudice.
What can you, the individual, do to combat ageism when you are looking for work?
The Middlesex County Office of Career Opportunity welcomes jobseekers of all ages to our next workshop, Combat Ageism in Your Job Search, with Dr. Amy Geffen, PhD. This webinar will discuss online learning, technology, research, and enthusiasm – all critical tools to help the real you shine through. You will learn what to include and avoid in your resume and LinkedIn profile, how to answer interview questions, and how to come across during the interview. We will even help you decide next steps in your career, whether you want to work part-time, continue to work full-time, start a consulting business, or volunteer on a non-profit board.
Whether you need this advice now, or you’re going to need it in the future, please join MCOCO and Dr. Amy Geffen on Thursday, February 23rd at 10:00 am via Zoom for this free workshop, “Combat Ageism in the Job Search.” Click here to register!

Monday Feb. 27, Bergen County Networking Community
“The Stories that Get You Hired”, virtual meeting.
The most important thing you bring to the table in any interview is not your resume, your credentials, or your checklist of qualifications, but your stories.
I hire for one reason and one reason only – because I believe you are going to produce the results I need. You can tell me you will and you can draw up a proposed work plan with facts and figures, but will that get me excited about hiring you?
Telling engaging stories that demonstrate related results you have produced in the past a game-changer. And the more such case studies you can draw upon, the more believable you become. But that only works if your stories are told the right way:
- Do you relate a “HERO Story” that’s compelling and leaves your interviewer anxious to hear more about you?
- Do you have concise, engaging results-oriented stories to back up every single point you make during an interview?
Join us, as Job Search Strategist John Hadley shows how to tell your HERO story in a manner that’s interesting, that flows and shows the progression in your career, and that leaves the listener with a number of promising places to ask follow up questions. He will then share and demonstrate the To Care template he teaches his one-on-one clients to help them turn interviews into offers.

The Ramsey Job Search 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 are expected to 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.
Please contact Beth Berkenfeld at bberk2@optonline.net or 201-797-4342 if interested in joining the group.
