Tiffany McVeety
This Thursday’s Job Seekers’ Roundtable: Four Factors of Entrepreneurial Goal Setting, with Tiffany McVeety
It’s never too late to start a business. In fact, according to a 2014 Kauffman Foundation study, plus 50 workers have launched their own businesses at a higher rate than 20-34 year-olds every year since 1996. And “[b]usiness owners ages 55-64 represented more than 23% of new entrepreneurs” in 2012. As more boomers retire, this number is predicted to grow.
We’re changing the ways we think about work, careers and starting businesses.
Tiffany will explain the nuts and bolts of getting a Four Point Plan together, and how you can put your interests and hobbies to work for you. As always, tasty refreshments and our Conversation Starter blend of coffee will be served. Hope to see you there!
When:
Thursday, August 11
1-2:30 p.m.
Where:
Shoreline Community College
Building 9000, Room 9202

Terra Staffing employment specialist and recruiter, Sarah Hoffman will join the conversation at Shoreline Community College’s Job Seekers’ Roundtable this Thurs., Aug. 4 from 1-2:30 p.m. in the PUB 9202. Sarah will impart details about Terra, what you might expect during a placement interview, and who’s hiring. Word is that office staffing companies are at the very least even with requests for workers and numbers of workers to be hired. So it’s a strong possibility that if you need something fast in the temp or temp-to-perm sphere, Terra could be your last stop.
Please bring your resume – and that cover letter we polished up last week to the PUB 9202 from 1-2:30 p.m.
This is a great opportunity to get placed! As always, coffee and light refreshments are on hand, compliments of Central Market.
P.S. – August is a strong month for Roundtable. Here’s what’s coming up:
• 8/11: Tiffany McVeety: “4 Factors of Entrepreneurial Goal Setting?”
• 8/18: Annie Conklin: “How My Home-Based Business Took Off”
• 8/25: Tiffany Lamoreaux: “Applying for Jobs in the 21st Century”
