Comments From Attendees
Thank you so much for this note, for hosting a great CCM event on Tuesday evening and for all you do to support those of us in career transition. While I thought the entire Tuesday evening program was wonderful, I truly appreciated Jeff Piper's inspirational message. In this challenging economy and job market, I know that I am guilty of not appreciating all that God has done for me. One of my resolutions to combat this is to be thankful for those good things that God sends me and let those messengers know; the CCM ministry and your spirit of service is certainly one such blessing!
So, thanks for all you do to keep us informed, equipped and motivated (spiritually and otherwise)! I know that your service benefits many but I wanted to be sure that you heard from one describing the value it brings him!
Mike
I am looking forward to attending the event on Feb. 2. The last meeting was my first, and man, was I glad I went! Great ministry you all offer!
Brian
I have not been able to attend any CCM Tuesday events in the past month because I am taking a class every Tuesday until May 10. However, I just wanted to let you know that the CCM event on March 15 was truly life-changing. I gained a great deal of valuable information from the panel of recruiters and managers that spoke. I thought I had been quite savvy in my job search, so it was quite humbling- yet empowering, to get practical information about what I could be doing differently. In particular, I raised the question about the value of cover letters which I had been spending hours creating.
I also found the New Member Orientation Breakout, conducted by Richard Voigt, to be invaluable. I have been following his suggestions to the letter and feel far more confident in my job search. I had not even begun a LinkedIn profile, nor did I have any business cards- I mistakenly thought both were outdated! Richard helped me, and I believe everyone else in the room, to feel more confident about what they have to offer potential employers, and each other. As a result, I truly believe in the power of networking and have begun participating in various networking events around Atlanta. I have also been sharing the packet of information that was sent and encouraging my friends to attend the Tuesday events.
Once my class is over in May, I definitely plan to come back to CCM, even if I have become employed :-) Thank you so much for this wonderful ministry!
