30 Second Pitch

One of the job search tools that must be in your tool box is your 30 second pitch. 
Some call it an elevator speech.  As that name suggests, it's a brief transfer of information (on an elevator ride) about yourself that you can use in many networking and job search situations.  

If you want to see some (mostly) well done ones, CNN is currently providing job seekers the opportunity to give their 30 second pitch live and on air.  Below is the link.  You can watch the back story on each person or you can skip to approximately the last minute of the segment to hear their pitch. 

Pay attention to the order they put their information in, the action words they use and notice whether you're interested to know more about them (or not).  Use what works and what you like for crafting your own!  If you need more assistance, the tools, resources and support at Career 3D can help!
