“EXPERIENCE COUNTS” West Hempstead, NY, June 20, 2007 - The Long Island
Breakfast Club was founded in 2006, an organization providing advocacy,
support, career and employment counseling, referrals and good old-fashioned
laughter to prepare mature individuals and people who are physically challenged
for productive employment. Counted among
the membership are women and men who have recently been downsized and looking
for support to continue positive reinforcement to gain employment back in the
corporate world. Membership is
encouraged for any individuals who need the extra support to continue momentum
in searching for jobs in the mid-life years. As stated by Founder Valentina
Janek, “Although
it is not uncommon for people to frequently change jobs, it is a struggle for
middle age seekers to gain employment. “
The Long Island Breakfast Club
invites members of all ages, male or female, to join our ranks and experience the camaraderie
and bonding to help you get through the interviewing cycle in mid-life. Quoted by Founder, Joann
Fiorentino, The Long Island Breakfast Club was
founded by four individuals in a unique and passionate way. The organizations strong proponents are to
work with individuals who need the positive reinforcement to job search after
losing a job in the mid-life years. It is the goal of the organization to assist
with providing referrals, companionship and business networking and contacts
for interviewing as well as mentors for each individual’s success. The Club currently is servicing the
communities of Nassau and Suffolk Counties, and was founded by
four individuals who were seeking employment and experiencing much difficulty
due to their wealth of experience and their age.
As stated by
Valentina Janek, “They say in the end, all that really matters are the
connections and relationships people share.” “When people come together simply
due to similar circumstances, things happen.”
The founders are accepting new members and considerations for submissions
for stories on the effects of downsizing and interviewing to be published in a
new book called “Life After The Big Bad Boot”. The organization is an example of diverse
individuals forming together to part of the big plan to decrease age
discrimination as well as promote “Experience Counts!” To celebrate this spirit of community, The Long Island Breakfast Club would
like to invite you to the next meeting. ABOUT THE LONG ISLAND BREAKFAST CLUB
