SUMMARY:How To Be Memorable When Everyone Is Qualified
DESCRIPTION:Watch the Reply!  \n\n\nYou have the experience. You have the résumé. You’ve prepared your answers. But here’s the problem: so has everyone else. \n\n\n\n\nHow to use humor\, humanity\, and timing to manage pressure\, connect quickly\, and become more memorable. \nYou have the experience.\nYou have the résumé.\nYou’ve prepared your answers. \nBut here’s the problem: so has everyone else. \nWhen an interviewer is meeting candidate after candidate with similar qualifications\, being polished isn’t always enough. What often makes the difference is something far more human: connection. \nJoin Path to Next host and Intel alum\, Gina Riley\, and professional speaker\, experiential trainer\, and lifelong comedy performer Stefano Iaboni for an engaging and practical session exploring how humor\, presence\, storytelling\, and emotional awareness can help you stand out—without becoming a comedian or trying too hard to be funny. \nThis isn’t about memorizing jokes. \nIt’s about learning how to bring more of you into the room. \nIn this session\, you’ll discover how to: \n· Create a human connection in the first 30 seconds\nUse warmth\, presence\, and personality to make a stronger first impression. \n· Become memorable when everyone is qualified\nDiscover how appropriate humor\, emotion\, and storytelling can help people remember the person behind the résumé. \n· Use humor without trying to be funny\nLearn how authenticity\, observation\, and lightness can make conversations feel more natural and less rehearsed. \n· Read the room and adjust in real time\nPractice Stefano’s “Sound Check” approach: pause\, observe\, ask\, and notice whether your message is actually landing. \n· Manage the pressure of the job search\nLearn simple techniques to reset before an interview\, recover when something doesn’t go as planned\, and show up with greater energy and confidence. \nThroughout this interactive session\, Stefano will demonstrate practical examples\, invite audience responses\, and explore the difference between an answer that is technically perfect…and one that actually makes someone want to keep talking to you. \nBecause your next opportunity may not depend only on what you know. \nIt may depend on how people feel when they meet you. \nAbout Stefano Iaboni \nStefano Iaboni is a professional speaker and experiential trainer who has spent decades performing comedy and connecting with audiences around the world. Today\, he brings those same principles of humor\, timing\, presence\, and human connection into workplaces\, conferences\, and professional development programs. \nHis philosophy is simple: You don’t need to become funnier. You need to become more human. \n\n\nAnd a quick note from the Intel Alumni Network Board: if you’re able\, please consider contributing to IAN — resources are a bit tight heading into 2026\, and every bit of support helps keep the network strong. As an all-volunteer organization\, every dollar helps. \nIf you know an Intel alum who hasn’t registered yet\, invite them to join us! \nRetired from Intel? Join the Intel Retiree Organization.
