Hey! We had 2 great shows since last posting:

The One About How to Get Published with Senior Editor at Kensington Books in NYC and published author Gary Goldstein, who gave us the inside scoop on getting your novel, novella, short story, piece de resistance, etc.

The One About Immigration and Outsourcing (soon to be added to our Archives) with guest Dr. Joelle Saad-Lessler, Economics Professor at the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University who discussed with us her take on the issue of immigration and outsourcing and their effect on the economy and job market. (This show kind of turned into our very special Halloween edition of SYWAJ)

Next week: Are You Ready to Succeed? Find out by listening on, Wednesday, oy the “holiday season” is almost upon us, November 1st, from 2 to 3 pm on webradiowcwp.org! And don't forget our website and archives!!

So, You Wanna Relocate...

We finally have the audio up from the last two shows:  The One About Millennial Expectations and The One About Online Networking.

Those of you who expected to hear about what to expect on the first month of your job were probably disappointed.  This season of SYWAJ has been stricken with scheduling gaffs.  What you heard, and what will be in the archives shortly, will be The One About Relocating when we spoke to Long Island Association Director of Communications, Gary Wotjas (pronounced ‘Wo-taz) who described the current situation influencing an exodus off of Long Island and what the LIA is doing to reverse the trend (hear him describe terms like Brain Drain and Affordable Living!).

For those of you who do want to relocate from wherever you are listening from we also talk about relocation strategies.

We’ll surprise you by not letting you know the topic of future shows just in case they don’t turn out as scheduled… that just means you’ll have to listen to find out what pearls of wisdom will be gushing forth from so, you wanna job…

The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry...

… we planned to run our show on Relocating on 10/20… but Darlene was out on jury duty again.  If you listened to our last show Darlene and I discussed her experience on jury duty for those of you who have never served (like myself – I got so close).

The Oct. 27th show focused on Online Networking.  We talked to Adam Grohman, Director of Student Conduct and Community Education on the C.W. Post Campus of Long Island University about college campus’s reaction to what they consider MySpace and Facebook behavior unbecoming of a college student; and had our own repartee about forms of successful online networking and how to make it a tool for your job search.  Next week:  Your First Month on the Job… and at some point we will get back to talking about relocating… promise  :)

Season 3 Up and Running!

Hope you all joined us for our first show of the season!  We discussed the new generation of workers from the current generation of young adults born between 1977 and 1995 – the Millennial Generation – with Dave Meihofer of Enterprise Rent-A-Car and two students from C.W. Post.  Dave Meihofer discussed how companies are changing their approach to recruiting and managing Millennial job candidates and our students talk to us about their experiences as “Millennials”.

As for our 9/13 show, sorry about the rerun (though a great rerun at that) Darlene was performing her civic duty waiting to be screened for jury duty.  We will run our show about Relocating on 9/20.
