This YouTube vlog-style update by Mike Richards recaps the first Treasury Career Corner Live event in Chicago (hosted with Mary Winclaw and Rob Anderson), offers practical job-seeking advice (LinkedIn profile updates: add photo, switch off notifications; be a passive job seeker), and points listeners to salary benchmarking at treasurysalary.com. Mike describes helping a listener named Rob who'd been 20 years at one company, meeting him for coffee and encouraging networking and event attendance. He also mentions a podcast with Adam Richford (career moves: placed at Renui, promoted there, now group treasurer at Smith & Nephew) and upcoming events in New York (130+ expected) and the New York Cash Exchange.

Hello from downtown Chicago in the Loop. Yes. Here having done our Treasure Career Corner Live last night. Amazing night with Mary Winclaw and Rob Anderson. Thanks very much guys, you're amazing. Our Treasure Career Corner Live, first ever one in Chicago. Really enjoyed it. Amazing night. Yeah. Last week's newsletter. So this was about another Rob, Rob who wanted to know about the market. He was saying I've been 20 years at my current company, what if I want to look? What do I do? Said Rob, polish up your LinkedIn. Bang on. What if everyone knows? I said mate, it's easy. All you need to do, switch off your notifications, update your picture. In fact add a picture because you didn't actually have one. Get that added to your profile and people will start coming looking because you can be a passive job seeker. What if jobs come to you that you actually want? In addition to that, doing his LinkedIn profile benchmarking. Where do I stand salary wise? So do Our salary survey treasurysalary.com Amazing. Did it already found his under market and he said ah, is this because. Yes, because you've been in the same place for 20 years. He's like ah, God, great, thanks very much. I said what next? I said connect with us, let's go for a coffee. I've already met him up over a coffee and we'll probably do a beer in the future. He's coming to our Treasure Career Corner Live later this year in London and he's starting to look, he's starting to connect with people. He's also going to other events as well as well. So he's going to go to a couple of the other conferences that coming up. All these things are going to help get him out there. He can still be a passive job seeker, doesn't need to tell people but you can actually start to look for his new role. Other than that, had a great podcast with Adam Richford, my only ever third time person. I placed Adam at Renui. We had him then, then he got promotion at Renui. We talked about his new role and then more recently he's become the group treasurer Smith and nephew. So we talked about that. Amazing. Great. This is this week's one. Say we did Treasure Kriya Corner live last night in Chicago. 60 odd, 70 odd people. It's amazing. Great night, quite tiring. But then next week Treasure Kre Corner Live in New York with 130 plus. Look forward to seeing you there. And then New York Cash exchange and we'll get another video like this. All right, thanks.
