Winter is almost over! Let’s get to Networking!
Networkers,
Freelancers, Entrepreneurs, Linked-Inners, and On/Off-Rampers:
Join
fellow Park Slopers for a networking night at The Old Stone House. Come talk
about your career and collaborative needs, new business ventures and ideas,
career change and transition questions and any other job-related concerns and
questions.
When: Tuesday, March 10, 2015, 6:30 PM until 8:30 PM
Where: The Old Stone House , 336 3rd Street
Brooklyn (at 5th Ave), NY 11215
(Note- you must log in to be able to sign up as a member. ALSO--when you
register you’ll be asked to provide a description of “Who you are and why you
are networking” so prepare that before registering because we send that out to
participants after the event!)
==========================================
HERE IS HOW THINGS WILL WORK:
- AT check-in you'll get a number.
- At 6:45PM, ONE-minute introductions will begin. You will be timed.
Go too long and you'll get dinged.
- After everyone's finished (around 7:25), you'll spend the next hour
making connections, giving out cards to folks you want to meet with and requesting
cards of people you'd like to work with in the future.
We will have until
8:30 (and for the rest of eternity) to schmooze, peruse, cruise, and amuse.
Real quotes
from real people about the PSP CAN Shmoozefests:
- "The Shmoozefest was my FAVORITE - I'd love to attend another
one!"
- "I CONNECTED with a graphic designer at the Fall Shmoozefest
who hooked me up with an editor, and I got an assignment from that
editor"
- "I ENJOYED the networking event at [the Old Stone House] as a
great way to meet people in the neighborhood and make connections."
- "The networking events are GREAT."
END RESULT? PRICELESS. A set of business cards of people who
can help you pursue job possibilities, collaborations, and partnerships.
COST: $20 for
members (open to non-members -$25- later if there is room!) Nibbles
provided!
