‘Get Hired!’ author to speak

The Broomfield Workforce Center and Sun Microsystems are hosting a reprise appearance of Donald J. Strankowski in a free seminar on Wednesday, May 3 from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Mamie Doud Eisenhower Public Library, 3 Community Park Rd. in Broomfield. 

Strankowski, author of Get Hired! will talk about job search strategies.  He asserts that most conventional job search strategies are simply not effective anymore.  To be successful in today’s ultra-competitive job market, one must employ new tools and new strategies for gaining notice and getting hired.   

The Get Hired! author will provide the advice and strategies today’s job seekers need to conduct a successful job search campaign, regardless of the strength of the employment market. 

In this high-content, interactive session, participants will learn: the most effective job search methods--key methods to increase hiring chances, how to create an effective cover letter and resume combination that position a jobseeker as an expert in his or her chosen work, gets read and gets the jobseeker noticed; how to become distinguishable from the job search masses by employing new strategies such as a V-Letter, Brag Book, and Job Business Plan; how to prepare for and ace the interview and win the job; and how to determine market value and negotiate a top salary.
