The Pink Slip Party is a grass-roots phenomenon that took off during the dot com crash several years ago and has enjoyed a revival given today’s challenging economic environment. Pink Slip Parties bring together hundreds of professional workers and their supporters with a renewed sense of purpose and hope for the future. These gatherings offer great networking opportunities, connecting those who have been, or are about to be pink slipped with HR and recruiting professionals from companies looking for new talent.
Attending a Pink Slip Party is a smart move. You’ll have a great time, make some new friends and learn about new job opportunities before they ever hit Monster.com or CareerBuilder.com. You’ll be able to showcase your talents in a relaxed, friendly environment and trade tips with fellow job-seekers.
Once limited to dot com companies, pink slip parties have expanded to include a wide variety of diverse industries and they’ve exploded in popularity in Chicago, Seattle, Denver, New York, Silicon Valley and major metropolitan areas.
