(That would come in very handy for interviews and also for the Q&A sessions that follow your pitches or presentations!) Toastmasters offers a proven way to hone your communication skills. To some, lack of this crucial skill set is akin to a self-imposed glass ceiling. For others, and that includes most of the members here at NYSSA, an incremental improvement in their speaking, leadership, and presentation skills could not hurt.

Christina LeRoy from eFinancialCareers gave attendees tips on broadening their job search to include international employment opportunities and discussed the changing recruitment cycle.
