Teqcorner

Mc Lean, VA 22102
-------------------------------------
When you live and work in a town like DC as long as I have, one thing becomes very apparent;
It'll never matter how much you know or what qualifications you have. Because someone who has more connections with less qualifications, can pass you at any moment and leaving you at your position for another 3 more years.
Would you like to:
- Find alternative ways to conduct a job search rather than attend job fairs
- Use Linkedin as a knowledge sharing tool. Get the answers you need to know about your industry or reach a certain contact.
- Learn to be more pro-active and productive in online networking
- Learn how to increase your reach to a wider net of contacts
- Learn how to optimize and enhance search visibility so people can reach you
I will be giving be giving a hands-on workshop on how you can manage your professional career with Linkedin and build your personal brand online. Using my own proprietary framework, I will talk about how to master the 3 crucial aspects to the platform; Presence Management, Relationship Management, and Job Hunting. Join me and learn why your education and current experience are already a commodity and why your "social currency" is more important than ever.
This is a "Learning by Doing" workshop meaning it is interactive and you will be given a list of things to do "in-class" to accelerate your learning. No boring Powerpoint presentations for 2 hours! As such, the event is limited to a manageable level.
Each attendee will also receive tip-sheets that cover:
- Best Practices in how to optimize your online profiles
- Dos and Don'ts when using Linkedin
Who should attend?
- Any professional looking for alternative methods to finding a white-collar job instead of relying on job fairs and boards
- Any professional looking to be more pro-active in enhancing their online reputation
- Any professional looking to further their knowledge of online networking tools
Price: $35. Price increases to $45 by Thursday 19th.

Park on the backside of Teqcorner. Visitors can only enter from the front and not the backside so you must walk around to the front. We're on the 2nd floor in the main conference room. Can't miss it.
Closest Metro is Falls Church metro and then take a taxi to Teqcorner. Teqcorner is just off the main highway, Chain Bridge Road, and half a mile away from Tysons Corner.
