I made my quarterly appearance on the Focus Group radio show on SiriusXM Satellite radio two weeks ago. It was great seeing hosts, John and Tim. This was my third time on their show and it’s beginning to feel “old hat!
This last show was truly a blast. The guys keep me on my toes. They open up their phone lines and I never know who is going to call or what they will ask. Not only did we touch upon age discrimination but I answered a question from a person who was struggling to update their LinkedIn profile due to a change in their gender. I’ve never been faced with a question like that before so I truly shot from the hip but I am proud of the advice I delivered. Basically I said that it’s part of her story and it should definitely be broached in the LinkedIn summary, not the experience section. After the show, we connected on LinkedIn and I reviewed her profile. It was gratifying to see that she incorporated my tips and her profile looked great! Fantastic job, Gerri! I wish you the best of luck!!
Listen to the show!
Afterwards, I took advantage of being in New York City and I joined the San Genaro Feast happening in Little Italy. I walked for what seemed like miles and then I ate pounds and pounds of pizza, canollis, broccoli rabe and other Italian delicacies. It was a wonderful day!
Oh and here’s the promo they did a few weeks prior to my visit:
