Our Pink Slip Mixers are about hundreds of professional, mid- to upper-level executives who are (might be) victims of the "economic downturn" of 2008. Our mixers are about banding together, networking and bonding with the recently "Pinked". We will share our experiences of why we were let off, what companies are hiring, and the "buzz words" that specific hiring managers want to hear.
Aside from the usual imbibing, commiseration and fun that every pink slip mixer brings, headhunters, direct-hire companies, and recruiting firms may also be on-hand to learn a little bit more about what you do. Maybe you'll meet a new contact, or find a new job!
When you come in the door, you'll be given a color-coded name tag that identifies you as a job seeker of a specific industry -- or a recruiter or Hiring Manager of a direct hire company -- so you can network with the people that matter to you!
Our mixers will also included educational sessions on career opportunities, use of social networking tools and other methods to improve your job search.
