Sports conversation can land you a job. Learn how the Game-Day Goddess Sports Series can help you. End Quote

(1888PressRelease) May 23, 2014 - An award-winning author of a how-to book on letting sports conversation land you a job says it's easier than most people think to get an interview or a leg up on career opportunities.

"You have to stop waiting for company officials to discover you," advises Suzy Beamer Bohnert, author of the Game-Day Goddess Sports Series. "Start sports conversations. It will help you advance professionally and socially."

Beamer Bohnert offers the following tips for getting hired or promoted in a job:

• Sports can be a common denominator, which can lead to terrific conversation. Those hiring look for more than what appears on a resume. They look to the future and what skills you bring, including the ability to make small talk.

• Knowing about sports can take you far. Employers know that if they hire you, they may travel on a business trip with you, introduce you to clients, or take you to sporting events where you conduct business.

• They'll remember you if you know sports. If you're able to talk about sports, maybe you'll find you have something in common and give the other person a reason to remember you, hire you, socialize, and do future business with you or your company.

• Sports can be what you look into as a hobby. Watching a game featuring your alma mater might be a natural fit for your lifestyle and enable you to meet others. Maybe you join a coed softball league with people of all ages. Coaching the neighbor's kids in a recreational league sport brings about a whole new circle of people. While those extracurricular activities may seem unusual ways to find work, and they all involve sports talk, unlikely connections can take you on a path that brings career success.

• Ace an interview or start up a conversation with sports. Read the sports page headlines to make sure you know the current standings for the home teams. You might find a common interest that provides a critical advantage. This common ground can be the basis for a job offer or a promotion.

• Use sports to network. Networking is making friends. For those who find themselves excluded from networking opportunities or conversations, a basic grounding in sports helps you to network and socialize without restraint. Engaging in banter about sports and games can help you land a job, widen your circle of friends, and build a strong rapport with clients or colleagues.

The Game-Day Goddess Sports Series gives people the tools for generating sports conversations to get hired or advance in their career. The book's user-friendly format makes it easy for people to learn quickly about sports to generate the buzz that sets them apart from the competition.
