Ed has deep expertise in this area since he’s been a consulting, contingency and retained recruiter and has led a large corporate internal recruiting team for a $1B concern. Please join us for an insightful journey into this world.

•  How to get on the good side of a recruiter quickly
•  Best ways to explain your “pay rate” to consulting recruiters
•  Key areas a recruiter ultimately wants you to tell them – even without being asked

Presentation: “Disruption Proof your Career – Insights from 52 Weeks of “COVID” (“Culmination Of Very Impactful Disruptions”) Webinars”

It is safe to say that none of us could have predicted a Pandemic, let alone its impact on the job market. As it turns out, the pandemic was the first in a line of disruptions we experienced that included “Digital Transformation”, “Digital Disruption”, “The Great Resignation” and now Inflation – each of which presents its own unique challenges to Society, Businesses and of course the individual.

If you didn’t know better, you could argue that COVID stands for the “Culmination Of Very Impactful Disruptions”.

But these disruptions have had a real and significant impact in the workplace, all of which will influence “The Future of Work”. Just consider these disruptions
• How “traditional” corporate thinking was obliterated and previous “corporate blockers” annihilated
• Increased the speed at which disruptive change is implemented
• Established new job requirements that require CURRENT skills that aren’t quickly obtained
• Exposed the fragility of the Supply Chain EcoSystem
• Established new forms of consumer “Muscle Memory”
• Established new processes due to Government Regulation / Mandates
For those still in the workforce, the breadth, depth and speed of these changes is likely confusing AND unsettling. And if you follow the news, it is possible that other disruptions (like the rumors of another pandemic) are possible, so what can you do to prepare yourself for the next disruption, whatever it may be?

All of this serves as the basis for George’s BRAND-NEW Presentation for 2022. Leveraging the extensive “Pandemic Research” and insights shared during his last 85 Weekly LIVE Facebook Webinars. He will build off his 2020 “Future of Work” Framework – by aligning the most significant disruptions to the framework, the permanent disruptions they are causing – and sharing his insights as to how to best prepare to “Keep Pace” with the changes that are not only here – but most certainly coming.

George Pace

About the speaker:
George Pace is an IT technology leader, focusing on how to extract business value from the latest technologies. He is currently working to”Keep Pace” with a range of disruptive technologies such as Cloud Computing, Artificial Intelligence and Digital Assistants to gain insights on how those technologies will impact the “Future of Work”.

George is sharing his thoughts and insights on his YouTube Channel (www.youtube.com/keeppace) – so stop by and subscribe!

George holds a bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from Seton Hall University and an MBA from the Rutgers Business School

Presentation: “Can you Influence the Interviewer? Here are 6 ways you can.”
Many psychological factors underlie whether an interviewer chooses one candidate over another. Although there are some aspects of the interview process that you can’t change, like your height or whether an interviewer has certain preferences, by uncovering the six underlying mechanisms of influence, you can subtly tip the scales in your favor.
Interviewing is a competition, and this presentation will help give you the edge so you can be slightly better than the previous or next candidate. And sometimes that’s all it takes. This presentation builds on psychological concepts formulated into practical, expert tips that you can use right away, like how to structure your speaking style to appear more credible. You’ll learn how influencers use such factors as reciprocity, how herd behavior can work in your favor, and how using the concepts of familiarity, authority, and scarcity can help land your next offer.
