Mission Statement:
To support and uplift those experiencing
the loss of employment by sharing career development resources, networking opportunities, prayer, and fellowship in a faith-based, compassionate, and encouraging environment

"Every man should be born again on the first day of January. 
Start with a fresh page.  Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary,
or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front,
and take no interest in the things that were and are past." 

  ~Henry Ward Beecher

New Year - New You

Resolve to Rejuvenate and Jump-Start Your Job Search

 

Are you caught up in the day-to-day doldrums of your job search?

 

The new year is here, which means it's a perfect time to start fresh. If you haven't been passionate or bold about your career search in a while, capitalize on this time of the year to begin again.

 

If you've lost your "get up and go," maybe what's missing is a new goal. We'll discuss and set goals that get us excited and motivated again. Whether it's a new resume or a new target company, innovative new strategies can give us something to look forward to.

 

We're each responsible for taking charge and making things happen for ourselves.  So let's be fresh - let's be bold with our job search strategies in 2011!
