Do you find it hard to “Keep Pace” with the never-ending stream of AI articles you encounter daily?  Wouldn’t it be nice to get professional insight into those topics, so you can be prepared for how AI will impact YOU and YOUR CAREER?

That is the driver behind my weekly LIVE Webinar (30 Minutes EVERY Sunday at 9AM EST), where George provides his insights to interesting AI advances AND the changes it will drive.

What: The Ramsey Job Search

Where: Please contact Beth Berkenfeld at bberk2@optonline.net or 201-797-4342 if interested in joining the group.

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.

JVS Job-Seekers Virtual Workshop, Marty Gilbert, Marketing Yourself to Your Next Career Opportunity

Many job seekers think that finding their next job begins with answering a lot of online ads.

Wrong… particularly if you don’t like 200 to 1 odds, which is what you’re up against with most attractive online job opportunities. And remember, at least 70% of all available jobs are NOT advertised on LinkedIn or Indeed… they’re hidden.

Did you know that a “new product launch” and a “job search” share a great deal in common… they both require effective MARKETING to make an impression. If people don’t see the value of a product, they won’t buy it. And the same is true of recruiting companies that are looking for a great candidate. That’s why 90% of the job search is all about marketing – positioning, packaging, messaging, targeting, promoting and convincing companies to realize that you are the best applicant that they’re going to meet.

In this webinar our guest speaker Marty Gilbert will show you how to approach each of these critical marketing initiatives including:

  • How to develop a personal branding statement and value proposition
  • Accessing the “hidden job market”
  • The power of effective cover letters
  • The difference between resumes and LinkedIn profiles
  • Building a target marketing campaign

 There will be 20 minutes of open networking

with fellow job seekers after the presentation.

 

THIS PROGRAM IS FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A VIRTUAL EVENT.

ADVANCED REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED.

David Schuchman – AI for Your Job Search: Getting Started

Plainsboro Public Library, 9 Van Doren St, Plainsboro Township, NJ 08536, USA

In today’s competitive job market, leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer optional… It’s essential.

“AI for Your Job Search: Getting Started” is designed to introduce you to relevant AI concepts. Then, we will demonstrate to you a basic, practical, step-by-step process for harnessing the power of AI to easily produce quality content.

We’ll walk you through a process that combines three essential AI tools:

  • Gemini: You’ll learn how to use Gemini to brainstorm and produce compelling content.
  • Grammarly AI Detector: This will help you review AI-generated text and provide a clear score of how much of your work appears to be written with AI
  • Humanize AI: A tool that helps to transform your AI-generated content into natural, human-like text.

By the end of this presentation, you’ll have a complete AI toolkit to help you navigate your job search with confidence and success.

Saturday January 10th, at 9:30 AM

Please share this with other groups you may be in.  Join us on Meetup.com at: http://www.meetup.com/The-Breakfast-Club-NJ/ to RSVP for the meeting.

The Breakfast Club NJ Presents: “AI for Job Search Ideas…Then What?” by Al Smith  

AI is a great tool to assist your job search efforts, but what should you do with what you have uncovered?

  •         Are there risks of using AI results as your finished product?
  •         Ideas to use AI for more than writing resumes & cover letters

Al is author of the Amazon #1 Best Selling job search manual HIRED! Every Employment Method and was the predominant co-author of the #1 Top Rated, HIRED! Paths to Employment in the Social Media Era.

Al has helped in excess of 1,000 people with their job search. His proprietary “Words-to-Work” LinkedIn page-1 keyword methodology is the surest way to exponentially increase profile views for the elusive Hidden Job Market and make it through the “Black Hole” of online resume submissions. “If you don’t have the right words in the right quantity, you won’t get found for work!” 

 Al’s presentations communicate complex material in readily understandable terms. Einstein once said, “If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t know it well enough.”  If correct, few know how to help candidates secure employment better than Al Smith.
