1. Presentation on “How to use Emotional Intelligence to perform better throughout your job search” plus networking
Emotional Intelligence is a different way of being smart and it’s a key to high performance when looking for your next job. Research shows that individuals who demonstrate high Emotional Intelligence are far more effective looking for jobs and ultimately more productive employees when working on the job. It’s a critical way to separate yourself from the pack of other candidates throughout your job search.
During this meeting, JANICE AULL, one of Chicago’s standout motivational speakers and facilitators, will share her expertise in applying Emotional Intelligence to job seekers. Here are a few of the topics that she will cover:
Date: Monday, January 6, 2020

3. Workshop: “The What The Hell Approach To Job Search” by Marty Gilbert, NSENG Founder/CEO & Job Search Coach
Many job seekers take a passive approach to their job search that invariably includes several hours a day sitting behind their computer answering online ads which often doesn’t create a lot of positive progress, particularly when you are 1 of 200 respondents to an ad. That’s why an effective job search requires a “what the hell do you have to lose” attitude that creates more interest, more activity and more interviews. This also includes a bold, proactive “marketing” campaign where you are packaging your background, communicating your value, constantly growing your target company list, seeding social networks to create greater awareness for your skills and engaging your audience. This small group workshop will focus on 12 somewhat “unorthodox” actions you can take to stand out from the crowd of numerous qualified candidates by changing your attitude, your mode of job search behavior and implementing a direct marketing approach that gets you noticed. More than 15 NSENG members have applied these principals over the past 2 months and they each attribute their job offers to the “What the Hell Approach”. Date: Monday, January 13, 2020
Time: 9:15 am to 1:00 pm (3hr & 45min workshop)
Venue: Glenview Library (1930 Glenview Rd)
