My concern is that I have done my interships, worked for free, and took low pay opportunities within the sports industry for the past 10 years and have not been offered a full time opportunity in the sports industry. I have appled for Teamwork Online, have reached to people and my school to help and still struggling, stressed, and frustrated since July. I hope 2012 is a better year I would like to be successful in sports and be able to be back on my own for good.
@joemcgrathjr Joe – just like an NBA or NFL prospect (athlete), you’ve got to be able to demonstrate that you’re exceptional at something specific business-wise. Players get drafted based on their skill-sets, proven track-record AND the specific needs of the team.
You’re either a point guard with crazy handles, or a slashing point forward that can get to the rim, or whatever your God-given talent is…
You MUST discover your greatness and tie it to the positions you’re targeting.
How are you positioning yourself?
When you get the chance, you’ve got to explain — clearly — what you can deliver (better than anyone) to the employer. You’ve got to be excited about what you do, whether it’s corporate sponsorships sales, ticket sales, community relations, event marketing, etc. you’ve got to show that you OWN that position.
There are a ton of ways to do that. Start with a marketing deck.
Employers think in terms of “show me,” not “tell me.”
Hope this helps.
