Passions Workshop Rescheduled
Seminar – Finding Your Passion
Putting it to Work.
Join us on Tuesday May 27, 2008 for a special workshop for job seekers titled “Exploring Your Passion – Putting It To Work”
NOTE: THE DATE FOR THIS WORKSHOP WAS RECENTLY CHANGED FROM TUES, APR 29, 2008.
NEW DATE: TUES, MAY 27
9 AM – 4 PM at Temple Chai
4645 E. Marilyn Road
Phoenix, AZ 85032-4839
Passion Workshop Description:
“Do you love what you do?” If you’re one of those “lucky ones” who can answer a resounding “Yes!” to this question, then this seminar is not for you. But, if you’re not, then you’ve probably asked yourself if there’s a job or career out there that’s a better match than what you’ve experienced – one that can be more satisfying and have more meaning in your life – and how you might go about finding it.
This workshop is designed to help people who have asked themselves those questions. Job seekers often limit themselves to what they “have always done” because it was the career that defined them for many years. They tend to lose sight of their many gifts, interests, strengths, and wealth of skills developed through life experience. This workshop utilizes proven tools to help individuals identify their strengths, talents and preferences – what they’re basically good at and really enjoy doing, and can prove to be useful in opening up job search options.

We do not require membership dues or meeting fees to allow everyone who is in job transition to be able to participate. Since our program is unfunded, we suggest that participants make a voluntary donation of $5 per meeting. When we have an all-day workshop, we do need to pass the costs along to participants.
Meetings are held on the first and third Tuesday mornings:
9-9:30 Networking, resume reviews, contact with recruiters
9:30 Welcome, announcements, introductions
10:00 Speaker begins
11:15 Speaker ends, feedback collected
Networking continues until 11:30
We meet at and use space provided by Temple Chai, 4645 East Marilyn Road, Phoenix, AZ 85032-4839. Temple Chai is located just east of the Piestawa Freeway (Route 51) and South & West of the loop 101 (PIMA FREEWAY SECTION). Marilyn Road is on the west side of Tatum Blvd. between Thunderbird and Greenway Roads
Scottsdale Job Network (SJN) is a non-profit community group of business leaders and volunteers. We are not a job placement forum, and we do not match candidates to openings nor do we send resumes to employers or recruiters. There is no guarantee of employment either directly through this group or as a result of association with SJN. We do, however, provide education in the job search process and all attendees have the opportunity to meet and work with people who offer support and guidance during employment transition.
The value of SJN lies in the skills, business networks and personal passions of our members. Membership is open to everyone willing to share their skills and anyone interested in local networking or in need of employment transition support.
