Your Pitch: Networking

On this episode of the Career Ready Podcast, we discuss how to create and share your Elevator Pitch as part of networking and your job search. We also talk about the Career and Self Development career competency and answer a listener mail question about improving yourself to improve your job search. 

Topic #1: Michelle talks about the NACE competency, Career & Self-Development. Employers like to see job seekers who “Show an awareness of [your] own strengths and areas for development.” 

Topic #2: Rebecca shares the 5 elements of an elevator pitch: your name, your strengths, your goals, your connection, and your next steps. Use your pitch to introduce yourself in networking situations to get the conversation started.  

Topic #3 (Listener Mail): Pierre answers the listener mail question, “How can I improve my weakness?”
