Q: Is the Group size limited?
A: Yes. In order to allow for good interaction and networking, groups will be maxed out at 20 people. We'll have multiple groups if needed to accommodate all paying members.
Q: How many sessions are there?
A: There are eight group sessions - four, one-hour sessions, and four half-hour sessions.
Q: What if I can't make a session because of my schedule?
A: No problem. Each session will be recorded and you can view the ones you miss later on your own. That way you can keep up with the rest of the group.
Q: I just want to find my next job as fast as possible. I'm not sure I can't wait eight weeks to go through this workshop.
A: I hear you. The pain of being in a terrible job or being out of work makes it hard to be thoughtful and strategic. But ask yourself this question - what if your next job winds up being a bad fit and you have to start the process all over again? You owe it to yourself to define exactly what you want in your next role, and then take the proper steps to get there. This workshop will guide you through that process.
Q: Why should I pay to join this group? Can't I just buy a career book and work through the exercises on my own?
A: Yes, you certainly can do that, but how’s that been working out for you so far? It's time for you to try a different approach, and there is HUGE benefit in working with others, offering mutual support and network introductions. Plus, there's accountability built in so that you'll actually DO the work.
Q: Is this a written course?
A: No. This is an online video workshop where everyone will be logged in to the sessions at the same time. I'll be presenting the material with live video and slides. During question and answer sessions you'll also be able to speak to the group, ask questions, and share results.
Q: Is there an extra fee to subscribe to the video service?
A: No. We use Zoom, which is free for attendees. All you need is a computer or with an Internet connection.
Q: I know someone who could really use this workshop. How can I tell them about it?
A: Copy the URL for this page from your web browser, and send it to them in an email.
