Ramsey JSWT Members:
Listed below are Next Week's Upcoming Networking Events. All meetings are open to the public, plus you are welcome and strongly encouraged to attend. Try going to at least one or two meetings a week, what you learn there will definitely help shorten your time in transition. Also, many of these groups convene in the evening, so it will not take time away from your daily job search activities.
Think of these meetings as opportunities, sort of like going to school, to learn something that can reduce your time in transition by gaining knowledge in job search and interviewing skills needed to excel and standout from your competition.
In traveling to these events, consider car pooling. Not only will it reduce the cost of driving there, but the friendly conversation will make the ride seem to go much faster. Also, in the event of snow, ice, or inclement weather, please check with the meeting organizer if the presentation will be canceled or postponed before traveling there. Your safety is important. Please rely on your best judgment before venturing out on slippery roads.
If anyone is aware of a meeting that you would like to share with the group, please let me know and I will gladly include it. Also, if any transition support group would like to receive this list to share with your members, please let me know and it would be my pleasure to add your group's e-mail address to my distribution list.
Thank you,
Tom Donohue
