Group Mentoring – First March Session

I would like to share with you the important facts taken at last week’s Group Mentoring session, shown below. Our main topic of discussion were interviews and how to stand apart from the rest of the potential employees in the workplace.

 

Our next session will take place sometime in April. I thank all of my participants. Our leadership program is proud and honored to have successful men and women such as these to be a part of our team.
