What is a job network?

Following the lead of Job Clubs in New York and England, the Dublin Job Club is now up and running every Friday in Dublin City Centre.
As the first network in Dublin focusing on all types of job seekers from executives, managers and professionals, this club has much to offer its members:
- the members are highly skilled in their sector and share contacts to help fellow members trying to reach specific recruiters, break into a new sectors or start new enterprises.
- Job leads will be shared at each meeting, helping disseminate placements across the group and increasing the number of opportunities each member is exposed to.
- the facilitators of the club, coordinate the networking and provide career counselling, advice and guest speakers to each member.
- The club will also provide all job seekers with something that can be difficult to access otherwise - moral support from others in a similar position. This type of social back up can be crucial when a redundancy has left the job seeker in shock or lacking confidence to take a step in a different direction.
- This type of network can also benefit those who are still in employment but have been scared off changing jobs because of the current eceonomic climate.
