RamseyJSWT Members:

Listed below are nextweek's upcoming networking events. All meetings are open to the public, plusyou are welcome and strongly encouraged to attend. Try attending at least oneor two meetings a week, what you learn there will definitely help shorten your timein transition. Also, many of these groups convene in the evening, so it willnot take time away from your daily job search activities.

Think of these meetings as opportunities, sort of like going toschool, to learn something that can reduce your time in transition by gaining knowledgeof job search and interviewing skills needed to excel and standout from your competition.

Intraveling to these meetings, think about car pooling. Not only will it reduce the cost of drivingthere, but the friendly conversation will make the ride seem to go much faster.

Nextweek I will be sending out the list of upcoming April 2013 NetworkingEvents. If anyone is aware of anupcoming meeting that you would like to share with the group, please let meknow and I will gladly include it.

Thankyou,

Tom Donohue
