create new opportunities:

a particular social enterprise topic that you would like to see added to

*About NYWSE*
NYWSE’s mission is to provide a community, tools, trainings, and resources
that women need to succeed as business leaders while becoming
sustainability experts, and our vision is to empower women to effect change
in society at all levels, as an individual, community member, professional,
student, and entrepreneur.
*More info from the organizers:*
Whether you are a business owner or even slightly interested in social
enterprise, this event will be useful. As long as you are interested in
conversing around this topic with other motivated women, this event will be
enlightening. The goal is to expose women, from the wide spectrum of NYWSE
members, to each other as well as to the different ways in which you can be
involved in this community. Also, for members with businesses attending
the event, you will serve as a captive focus group, so you are invaluable!
As a side note, our host, Taryn, is absolutely inspirational and
energizing.

Ever wondered how to get a job, but didn't know where to start? Not sure what an informational interview is? Tired of advice that doesn't actually apply to you? Want to hear about job-hunting experiences from a young professional who has been there, done that, and networked one hell of a lot? This talk will include information on how to go about your job (or internship) search and what you can actually do to get a job in any economy.
