Crossroads Career Network is Coming!

We are launching a new series of meetings focused on Crossroads Career Network, a Christian-based job search and career transition curriculum that is being taught in over 600 churches nationwide. Grace Job Seekers NetWORK offered Crossroads last year following our big Crossroads Workshop in February, 2010. The program was a huge success with all our job seekers!

Our next meeting is Monday, February 7th at 7PM in The Chapel at Grace Church. I will present the "Introduction to Crossroads" to get you started in the program. Please sign-up as a Crossroads Explorer on their website so you can download the Workbook and start using all the great Crossroads resources to help you land your next job. Here is the website: www.crossroadscareer.org. Register as an Explorer and select Grace Christian Missionary and Alliance Church under the US-Ohio heading for member churches. Our Registration key is grace4livinghope. Begin by downloading the Workbook which we will be using at each of our meetings.

I look forward to seeing you at our meeting on the 7th with your Crossroads Workbook! God has great things planned for you!

In Christ our Hope,
-Jim

NEXT MEETING: Monday, January 17th

Hi Everyone:
Our next meeting is Monday, January 17th at 7PM in The Chapel at Grace Church. Our guest speaker will be Job Seekers NetWORK team member, Michelle Kinder from Just Resumes. Michelle will be speaking on "How to Prepare for and nail a Behavioral Interview". This is a major concern, for most job seekers today will face a Behavioral Interview during the hiring process. Your success at landing a new job may hinge on how well you perform during a Behavioral Interview.

Please plan on attending this critical meeting and invite anyone you know that could use help and encouragement in their job search.

Keep Pressing on in His Grace,
Jim
