Networking Tip Of The Month

Are you attending 3 or 4 networking meetings a week? If not, you should. Why? Networking and support groups can give you ideas and share information with you while you are in your search mode. Losing a job can be a difficult and stressful time in your life. Sometimes we are not thinking straight and need the support of others to get us through these times. Remember, you are not alone in this journey!

What does a networking group do?

Networking groups are not just for support but to also share information such as target companies, contact information and who may be hiring.

Each of us is connected to a number of people through:

Family and friends

Peers

Former companies and organizations

Interest groups

Job Support groups

Since managing time and effort is important, a job search includes decisions about investing time with people and assisting them while seeking help and assistance.

Quote of the Month

"I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed."

A Prayer While You Are In Transition

Prayer to St. Anthony

O Holy St. Anthony gentlest of Saint, your love for God and charity for his creatures, make you worthy, to possess miraculous powers. Miracles wait on your word, which you are ever ready to speak for those in trouble or anxiety. Encouraged by this thought I implore of you to obtain for me (mention your request). The answer to my prayer may require a miracle; even so, you are the Saint of Miracles. O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was ever full of human sympathy, whisper my petition into the ears of the Sweet Infant Jesus, who loved to be folded in your arms; and the gratitude of my heart will ever be yours.

We hope you have enjoyed our October Newsletter!
