SAN RAFAEL, CA Oct. 7, 2009 Several Marin County officials have endorsed the Career ReBoot Camp, a unique career event to be held October 26-27 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in San Rafael, CA.

The Career ReBoot Camp features more than 30 top career industry experts and will be the largest career event of its kind in the U.S. It will provide job-seekers with the skills they need to become competitive in the tightest job market in more than 70 years.

County Supervisor Charles McGlashan wholeheartedly supports the Career ReBoot Camp. He commented, “Learning how to navigate career change is sometimes a necessity and often very invigorating and rewarding. It is well worth it to get the best tips and advice for a successful career transition.”

Other Marin officials who support the Career ReBoot Camp include Norma Barnes, director of Marin Professionals; Mary Donovan, Director of the Workforce Investment Board of Marin; Mary O’Mara, Director of MarinLink and Jacqueline Janssen, Director of Transition at the Center for Volunteering and Non-Profit Leadership.

“It’s not your father’s job-search,” says event producer Carol Ann Wentworth. “The world of work has changed dramatically in just the past few years. The average job search now takes more than half a year. Job-seekers must learn how to look for a job successfully in these challenging times. The Career ReBoot Camp can be life-changing.”

Cost for the two-day event is $249 (tax deductible) and includes breakfasts, wine and cheese reception, entertainment, parking and gifts worth nearly $200. For more information go to www.CareerReBootCamp.com.
