This week has been exhausting! I am so tired today after getting up at 5:15am for the second time this week. They have both been for networking events. I am not only networking for my current company but also for myself in finding a new job. I did have the chance to speak with Debra from ManPower and luckily they have an office in Charlottesville. I cannot wait to give them a call.
I attended a nice networking event this morning hosted by the Tech Council of Maryland (https://techcouncilmd.com/events/detail.php?list=Events&laction=detail.php&evt_id=154) . It was amazing! I really enjoyed Kate with PRofessional Staffing (you can find her at http://www.prstaffing.com/) and Aaron who was on Apprentice Season 6. I learned a lot from them about the fundamentals of networking. The second half concentrated more on social media strategies. It was lead by Steve Raddick (at http://www.steveradick.com/) and Denise Graveline (at http://www.dontgetcaught.biz/). They both revolutionized my idea of social media and using to sell myself and not a product (or service). I plan on following all of their blogs.
Not much else going on- heading over to my friend Natalie's house to get "The Time Travelers Wife" by Audrey Niffeneggar. We are reading with Stephanie and Katie for the next book club meeting. I am pretty tired but I would love to hang out with Natalie.
I cannot wait for tomorrow and to finally be on my way to Bridgewater.
