Real Networking Tips for Meeting the Global BIO Audience in June

There are 15,000 life science leaders coming to town in June for the 2012 BIO International Convention - are you ready to network?

Join us at MassBio on Tuesday, May 1 at 5:30pm to enjoy a drink (or two), network, and discuss how to successfully network for employment.

For years now people have touted networking as the most effective means of finding a new job. However many people have a difficult time effectively navigating the waters that are employment networking. When Networking is Not Working is a brief presentation designed to quickly walk participants through the Dos and Don’ts of networking for employment.

You’ll gain insights from professional veterans from two biotech companies, a staffing agency and an Internet employment services firm and leave prepared to utilize networking opportunities at BIO in June. Join us!

Pete Mello
Account Recruiting Manager, Aerotek


Nuno Goncalves
Manager, Scientific Staffing, Hire Minds


Darlene Cullen
Founder, Posting Wizard


Tracy Chandler
Associate Director, Global R&D Staffing, Vertex Pharmaceuticals

    I enjoyed the event. It was a great networking opportunity. The '7 tips' information was very useful. It was also great to hear about networking from the perspective of HR professionals.

    I didn't realize this meetup was for job seekers since the title of the meeting didn't mention that. Nonetheless, I met a couple interesting people who could be good future contacts.
