A member asked at today’s Monday Morning meeting if we could link from our blog to another blog (see the blogroll) that helps folks with their job-search issues. The Work Coach Cafe is one of the best we’ve come across. The writer is very responsive and supportive to the full range of queries that come in.
Whether or not you post, it’s a good read for all job seekers.
