The Executive Council of Las Vegas would like to announce that we will be holding a Pink Slip Mixer Party, a networking event for unemployed professionals in Las Vegas. The event will be held at the Hawaiian Tropic Zone inside the Planet Hollywood Casino on Tuesday, July 14th from 5 to 8pm.
Our Pink Slip Mixers are about hundreds of professional, mid- to upper-level executives who are (might be) victims of the "economic downturn" of 2008. Our parties are about banding together, networking and bonding with the recently "Pinked". We will share our experiences of why we were let off, what companies are hiring, and the "buzz words" that specific hiring managers want to hear.
Aside from the usual imbibing, commiseration and fun that every pink slip party brings, headhunters, direct-hire companies, and recruiting firms will also on-hand to learn a little bit more about what you do. Maybe you'll meet a new contact, or find a new job!
When you come in the door, you'll be given a color-coded name tag that identifies you as a job seeker of a specific industry -- or a recruiter or Hiring Manager of a direct hire company -- so you can network with the people that matter to you!
PinkSlipMixers.com has arranged Los Angeles based denim maker iTJeans to donate hundreds of jeans to give out to individual job seekers who prove they are unemployed.
