An Evening with Heather Hollick, Author of Helpful: A Guide to Life, Careers, and the Art of Networking
Join us for this marquee event as I kick off my book tour in the beautiful Dogwood Room of the North Carolina Biotechnology Center. In some ways, the book began in this very room. After speaking and coaching on networking for several years, the ideas took on a life of their own and grew to the point that I was able to offer a full-day workshop on networking in the Dogwood Room in December of 2012.

The JOBS NETWORK of St. Thomas More Catholic Church, Chapel Hill. Meets at 8:30 AM in Parish Center, 2nd and 4th Saturdays each month. I will be attending on June 8 to talk about job search, networking, and how to focus on being helpful in your job search.
This event is free and open to the public.
