It is said that a first impression - good or bad - is made as early as after just seven seconds! Regardless of whether this is true or not, there is little doubt that a good introduction is incredibly important. This is where pitching comes in. A pitch is a quick and concrete presentation of yourself, typically somewhere between 30 seconds and 2 minutes. For most people, it feels difficult, even frightening, to have to introduce yourself to a stranger in a very short time, and without preparation. In this workshop, we'll show you how to make an excellent first impression!

In the second hour of our workshop we will have a Q&A session with our guest, Emma Jackson. Emma's HR background covers 25 years in private and humanitarian organisations, on all continents. She has deep talent acquisition and talent management experience - in start-ups, tech firms, the UN; including organisations such as Google and the Red Cross. She knows what it's like to be on both sides of the hiring table; as candidate and as hiring manager.

Agenda:
13:00 – Presentation of the workshop topic
13:30 – Practical exercise
14:00 – Q&A session with Emma and help with own job seeking (🇬🇧+🇳🇴)
