One of the stories on Good Morning America this morning focused on the benefits of joining or starting a Job Club. The concept of a Job Club is a good one, especially if the club's members are clear that this is not a "pity party" but a meeting of active job seekers to strategically help each other in their job search.
The Five O'Clock Club's Insider Program offers weekly "meetings" by telephone, and the critical difference in this method is that the group is led by a Certified Career Coach, trained in proven methods to effectively find new opportunities. Yes, there is a fee to participate in this group, but the expertise offered and group support have a proven track record of success.
If you do decide to start your own Job Club locally, consider engaging the services of an experienced Career Coach to lead your group in their strategy sessions. The group's members may be willing to share the cost of the coach, who will guide the group and ensure that their efforts are going in the right direction.
