Why Find A Job Transition Support Group?

If you're looking for a job finding a support group or job transition group may be key. If you're over 50, a support group is even more important.

Will a job transition support group guarantee to find you a job?  Maybe not.  But it will give you some good ideas about where to look and help your 'job hunting mental health.'  Best of all it might help you hone your interviewing skills. 

Where can you find a support group?

Job transition upport groups can be found anywhere from your local community college to local churches or bookstores.  If anyone has a support group for a job transition workshop listing, please let me know, and I'll post it here.
