JOBS: CAREERS GUIDE - Six Classes to Build Your Career Skills and Help You Get a Job
Stamboulie Career Consulting Weekly Job Search Group
Sarah Stamboulie understands how how to lower the stress of looking for a job: breakfast. Her weekly workshop kicks off with bagels, muffins, fresh fruit, yogurt, orange juice and coffee, before adopting a lablike for analyzing the whole get-a-gig process. “We really utilize the group setting,” says Stamboulie, former head of career services at Columbia Business School. “The participants can learn from and motivate each other in a way that is unique to groups.” Topics include sourcing contacts, interview preparation, salary and raise negotiation, and perhaps most important, tapping the hidden job market (i.e., gigs that aren’t officially posted or that are handled by recruiters). The group also offers an immediate source of networking: itself. Stamboulie starts every meeting by asking everyone to talk about the types of people they are looking to get in contact with. “Details, details, details,” she says. “You never know who knows someone.” Stamboulie Career Consulting, 313 W 22nd St, Suite 2C between Eighth and Ninth Aves (212-206-9929, stamboulieconsulting.com).
