Rebeca Galencser, International Career Coach, was phenomenal delivering her Career Coaching Series on April’17 at our Cafe Avante event at Intel.
Cafe Avante, a spin-off of Cafe com Abraco, has recently launched its own Facebook Group for women to share their professional advice and network. The group is a platform for women in the Bay Area who are seeking to enter the competitive job market in Silicon Valley. We offer a Career Coaching Series with Rebeca Gelencser, where you will learn about Resume Elaboration, LinkedIn Optimization, Personal Marketing and Interview Preparation. This content is presented to you in a practical, fun and professional way during our workshops.
In our network you can have access to important information which is NOT easily shared around. You will be part of a strong and inspiring womens networking group that really has your back. You can have access to Rebeca’s freshly published ebook; TRANSFORM YOUR CAREER TODAY – a guide to help you find the job you want wherever you are located – and it is already available to download, at our Facebook group Cafe Avante. Join us!
