Today’s Class: November 3, 2017
Today’s guest was Nan Quinlan,
a professional training and coaching consultant and contractor. In other words,
Nan helps people find and get the jobs they aspire to.
Nan also helps companies find and keep the best employees in their companies. Furthermore, Nan trains people to maximize their BRANDS to find and keep the jobs they like.
Nan began today’s class with information and suggestions for getting the job a person wants. “First of all, more and more
companies are using the business media site, LinkedIn, to find and check on applicants
to work in their companies. LinkedIn also helps people build and position their brands for job opportunities. Secondly,
companies closely monitor the Facebook and Instagram postings of each job applicant.
People may have outstanding skills and work experience but, if the images they post on Facebook and Instagram have negative brand perceptions, they will not be hired. I know there are people who have been offered jobs and college scholarships and the jobs and scholarships have been rescinded, taken away, because of new, NEGATIVE information found either on Facebook or Instagram. Be careful. Finally,
do your research on the company you are applying to get a job with. Google their name. Make sure you know what services or products they sell.
Learn who their President is. Be prepared!”
The class then moved to
a series of role playing exercises
where a few students acted as job applicants interviewing with Nan.

Ianique Imboque begins today’s role playing exercises by walking into the lobby of a make believe company and greets the company receptionist, played by Jessicaliz Carrasquillo, with “hello. I am here for a meeting with Nan Quinlan for a job interview.“

Ianique greets Nan with a healthy handshake, great eye contact and a smile, before sitting down for his interview.

Catherine Vosono greets receptionist Jessicaliz, or as the receptionist is called at TACO Inc, in Cranston, “THE DIRECTOR OF FIRST IMPRESSIONS”!!

Francisco Gonzalez approaches Jessicaliz, THE DIRECTOR OF FIRST IMPRESSIONS, for the last interview of the day.

Nan shares her positive feedback with Francisco on his outstanding performance during his mock job interview in today’s class.
