Maplewood/South Orange Professionals in Transition

\"Do You Understand the Hiring Manager?\" with Alex Freund, the “Landing Expert” ________________________________________ July 28 @ 10:00 a.m.—12:00 noon Maplewood Library, 51 Baker Street 07040 http://www.bit.ly/NNJ_PIT This presentation will expose the thinking of the hiring manager. It shows how the interview is necessarily more focused on the needs of the company and the hiring manager than on those of the candidate. Attendees will learn about: • How is the hiring manager checking out the candidate way beyond the résumé and interview? • What values are important to the hiring manager? • Ways of searching for answers to those questions as well as how to answer many common interview questions properly. ________________________________________ Alex Freund was a director at several Fortune 500 companies. He has sat, countless times, on both sides of the interviewer’s desk, and has keen insight into hiring managers’ perspectives. He coaches, encourages, and motivates his clients to put their best foot forward.
