Boston Celtics U

Born in Dorchester (pronounced Doh-chestah), a neighborhood of Boston. I’m the eighth of nine kids, with older siblings, Arthur, Jim, Paul, Robert, Tracey, Michelle, and Debbie (died in 2003), and younger brother, Mark, who began his entertainment career in the former rap group Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch. And oh yeah… I’ve got three half-siblings from Dad’s first marriage: Donna, Scott, and Buddy. Mom, Alma Elaine (née Donnelly), was a bank clerk and nurse's aide while we were growing up. Dad, Donald Edmond Wahlberg, Sr. (May 8, 1930 – February 14, 2008), was a teamster . Did’ja know that I’m distantly related to author Nathaniel Hawthorne. Yep! I am. More…

90% of large companies use Applicant Tracking

Systems to search for qualified candidates from large

applicant pools.

An ATS helps employers analyze resumes/CVs, yielding

candidates that best match the position and filtering out

those who don't.

JobScan has built an algorithm based on the common

patterns among them.

Be impactful!

Summary – Above the Fold

35Write a SUMMARY with Impact

A SUMMARY is to be written in the FIRST person!Culmination of who you are TODAY. What is it that makes you so SPECIAL?

Why are you the answer to an employer/prospect/patron’s problem? This is

not a job description…

It is a brand statement --and the brand is YOU!

Building the

Network… a

2/18/2017

No matter your idea of networking…

2/18/2017

38Networking is Networking

Start networking before you need itNetworking when you have no ulterior motive, you can begin to build

relationships and a reputation for being generous rather than self-serving.

Have a planSince every person has value, it’s essential that you know what yours is. Map

out what you want to talk about, particularly how you may be able to help other

people, either now or in the future.

Forget your personal agendaGenerosity is an attractive quality and it’s something

special that people will remember about you.

Never dismiss anyone as unimportantMake it your mission to discover the value in each person you talk to.

Connect the dots. Make it a point to connect people you feel have something of

genuine value to each other.

2/18/2017

39

Figure out how you can be usefulBefore any conversation comes to a close, be sure to ask, “How can I help

you?” OR “If you need anything, please reach out to me or connect via

LinkedIn” and present your business card.

Follow up and follow throughIf you told someone you’d get in touch with them, do it and reaffirm your

intent to assist in any way you can. If you promised to introduce someone

to a person you know, take the time to do it. Little things mean a lot to

people and just one introduction can end up changing someone’s life for

the better.

Believe in the power of networkingWhen you believe that the true value of networking lies in helping others

and you do your part, you’ll soon discover magic happening all around you.

Networking is Networking

USE the "FORD" technique:Family

Occupation

Recreation

Dreams

Ask a person about any one of these and you're bound

to start a conversation. REMEMBER to only use a

sentence or two of your own experiences to show that

you're listening and have insight and continue letting

them talk.
