Networking Cards Workshop

July 10 @ 5:00 pm 6:00 pm

Looking for a job and understanding what networking is can be challenging. Most of us don’t have our resumes with us everywhere we go, but that’s where creating networking cards that you can keep in your pocket can come in handy!

Join us for a fun and engaging one-hour workshop where you will have the opportunity to create your own personal and unique, “networking cards” that can be used effectively to market your education, skills, experience, and much more.

You will have the opportunity to use our computers and design networking cards that you can print and take home.

A networking card is similar to a business card, but it spotlights your personal brand rather than just highlighting a job title or company role. It gives you the freedom to showcase who you are and what you can do for a potential employer, and these can even be used if you decide to change careers, or add a “side hustle” in addition to your career job.

Why are networking cards useful?

  • Versatility: You can use them in different settings and contexts regardless of your job title or career path,
  • Personal connection: By highlighting your unique individuality, these cards can spark engaging conversations which may help you land your dream job, and
  • Memorability: A unique card stands out in a stack and keeps you top-of-mind for a prospective employer or an important connection you made at a networking event.

Thursday, July 10
5:00 – 6:00 p.m.
In-person at The Ability Hub (300, 3820 24 Avenue NW)
