There are about 100 Employment Services Managers at this conference in Salt Lake City. We had a dinner tonight in the huge lobby of the Church Office Building. And the flowers on the dinner tables were leftover from President Russell M. Nelson’s 100th birthday party that was last night in this same lobby!
The training was excellent. Last year, Employment Services asked missionaries to dress in business casual clothes instead of traditional white shirt and ties. The business casual clothing can be less intimidating and more open. We’ll likely dress business casually for more of our mission than more formally. We’re not objecting.
The theme of the training was “One miracle at a time.” We received more detailed training on “Get To Know You” conversations, conducting “Me in 30” trainings with job seekers, networking, interviewing, and many other skill needed to help job seekers.
