What: A Day With Darrell
When: Friday, March 9, 10am-2pm (with casual Q&A, hanging out and networking afterward)
Where: Panera Bread, Irvine, CA
Who: YOU & 9 others
Why: You tell me! But here's what I had in mind...
I've hosted "Day With Darrell" events at a local Panera Bread for the last few months. Now bringing the career support show to Irvine.
Some feedback from attendees:
"Thank you again for all of the great information on Friday!"—Jessica O., Senior Project Coordinator
"It was great to meet all of you yesterday. And thank you to Darrell for helping us all reach our goals! BTW, I was contacted with regards to a job in Pasadena and I noticed a job for Jessica. See how this networking works!!!"—Kathy S., Marketing Manager
"I enjoyed spending the day with you and all and found the process of self discovery empowering. The workshop was excellent and valuable from my perspective and I would recommend it as a first step in any career transition. I found the power of personal "Branding" as my most valued "take-away" from today's activities. I also want to say that I benefited from all of today's exercises either directly or indirectly...so the day was a Big Win. I would highly recommend your event "A Day with Darrell" to anyone who is in transition."—Louis F., CPA/CFO
I learned from those "A Day With Darrell" events that, besides the casual one-on-one of working with you on your own issue (be it your resume, your elevator speech, your branding, your interviewing, your stealth approach, etc.), there are some fundamental-to-my-philosophy elements that need to be put in place...so you tap into the power of the stealth approach to finding opportunities quicker.
So, this time, I'll be giving you those elements upfront in an informal presentatioin format...before we dig into your more personal career issues. And you'll receive copies of BOTH of my books! The award-winning Headhunters Revealed! Career Secrets for Choosing and Using Professional Recruiters as well as my newest, hot-off-the-press guide, Never Apply for a Job Again: Break the Rules, Cut the Line, Beat the Rest!
LIMITED TO THE FIRST 10 REGISTRANTS.
Come learn to create your own:
- Backdoor approach to your next career move
- Personal Branding to distinguish yourself from others
- 30-Second HELLO pitch (Helping Everyone Locate and Land Opportunities)
- Rules to break and principles to adopt in developing your own Stealth Search Campaign to land your dream job!
The location allows us a semi-private section of the dining room from 10am-2pm, so I'm encouraging everyone to get parked (info will be sent), grab your coffee, tea and munchies, and be seated so that we begin right at 10am. And I'll even stay afterward, past 2pm, for remaining Q&A and networking.
(Please note: I can't cover the food and drink tab at this rate...which is why I'm holding it at a simple neighborhood bakery, to keep the event lean for everyone. I think lean is smart for all of us these days. But we'll have our own semi-private section, where we'll camp out the whole time.)
If you want the foundation of a powerful career management system that has worked for others, as well as your own Q&A time about what's critical to you right now, then grab a seat and, as I say in my new book, let's "meet, greet and find the treat!"
My first award-winning book that you'll get at the door, Headhunters Revealed!, shows you how to best utilize connections with recruiters.
My second, Never Apply for a Job Again, shows you how to become your own headhunter by creating connections everywhere you go. The power of networking and connecting with people all around you is amazing...
So besides your learning and Q&A on your specific issues (I'll give you everything I've got), you'll have the opportunity to connect with 9 others who can open up doors for you.
Never discount the power of a good nugget, nudge or network connection to move your career forward!
I'll spend the Q&A time giving each person the specific help they need. I'll have my laptop, so if there's a document that can help you, I'll pull it out and send it to you on the spot. Bring your own laptop if your question is computer or document based, and we'll deal with it right there, in realtime. One of the big bonuses is that everyone benefits from each others' questions...so you'll learn more than you bargained for!
I'm doing it really reasonably compared to my standard coaching and programs, PLUS handing you copies of BOTH of my books when you walk in the door. Only $97 reserves a seat for you to be with us...if you're one of the first 10 to register.
And if you need a guarantee to feel better about taking advantage of this specially-priced opportunity to spend mid-day Friday with me, then here you go: if you don't get at least one nugget, nudge or network connection to move you forward, then I'll give you a refund. Is that fair? And you can even keep the books!
So, if this opportunity calls to you, I look forward to spending Friday, 3/9/12 empowering your career!
