In today’s job market, first impressions are critical: How you look and how you share your talent, skills and abilities will often make or break you in today’s competitive environment.

Operation Career Boost is a one-day workshop for transitioning or recently transitioned servicemembers on how to gain the competitive advantage in landing your next career. Taught by management from top retailer Nordstrom and Springboard Academy Executive Director/former news anchor Margo Myers, those who attend will walk away knowing how to present themselves, what hiring managers look for during an interview, and how to fast-track your way to management.

This experience could very well lead to your next career with one of Puget Sound’s top retail leaders.

The event is limited to only 20 individuals and will take place at Nordstrom Tacoma: 4502 S. Steele St., Tacoma Mall on Aug. 28, 2013 from 10 a.m. -4 p.m.

Those who are selected to attend (and do attend) will receive an exclusive discount from Nordstrom.

Quotes from the last event:
“Thank you so much for your interest in helping military veterans as they transition from military service to civilian occupations. I found your presentation not only informative but pertinent and stimulating. The personal brand information, especially aligning and leveraging a personal brand, will definitely be useful for our clients.” – Christina S., JBLM, AACAP

“I cannot say enough about the program and how appreciative I am that you gave up most of a day to help us in becoming an asset that employers will want on their team. I feel that this training gave insight into the world of consumer based business, not just Nordstrom. This training will, in my opinion, help soldiers acquire employment.” – Darrell M, JBLM Soldier
