Greetings!
Happy November!  | | Amanda Zechiel and Catherine Lang-Cline learn about new employment practices at Staffing World in Las Vegas |
We recently returned from The American Staffing Association's annual conference, 'Staffing World.' In addition to receiving a 'Best of Show' award for our website, we came back with powerful insights about new trends and innovative ideas on how to be better workforce innovators for you! We'd like to extend a warm welcome to our new Talent Manager, Terri Price-Deep. Terri will focus on recruiting talent for both project and direct hire positions. A creative advocate with over 15 years of experience in the Columbus area, Terri comes to Portfolio with a background in project management, artist representation and business development. Lastly, are you great at folding shirts? Have you worked with clothing before? Then we're looking for you! We're seeking anyone who has experience working in a retail clothing environment to help with part-time freelance floorset work for our retail client. A creative background isn't required, so we'd love to hear from anyone with this kind of experience. Just shoot an email to: amanda@portfolioiscreative.com. -The Portfolio Team

 Opportunity Knocks
Networking - Your Job Search Secret Weapon
Catherine Lang-Cline, Owner
"Keep in mind networking can be a process because people like to really know people that they recommend for a job. Invest the time. If your resume comes with the endorsement of someone on the inside, you will be strongly considered for the job."

Raise Your Game
Think You're Too Old? That Employer Might Think So Too
Kristen Harris, Owner
"You must show the potential employer that your thinking, skills and communication are as fresh as any other employee or candidate. Often the perception of someone being "old" is based on ideas and actions, not physical age."
