 Experts say that networking is one of the best ways to find a new job. While we encourage you to come to the Work-Life Ministry meetings to network, below are resources for job clubs or internet networks.
Other methods of networking include letting your friends, family and neighbors know that you are looking for a job. Tell them what position and/or industry you’re interested in. Additionally, contact Jerry Knight, our ministry lead to have your confidential job-seeking statement listed in our bulletins.
Job clubs offer interpersonal relationship building as well as improving your oral communications. View the attachment for meeting information.
