Job Search Support Groups in Seattle

A few months ago, I mentioned a growing trend of job search support groups.  Last week, Kevin McClintic e-mailed me about a Seattle-based job search group: Notes from the Job Search.  Led by Steve Paul, they meet every week to:
  • Review each other's resumes
  • Practice their elevator pitches
  • Share tips on how use online networking resources such as LinkedIn
The weekly meetings are free, and Steve hosts the events in two locations: one in North Seattle and the other West Seattle.

I haven't had a chance to attend a meeting, but it sounds like a great place to share search tips and leads.  Most importantly, the group has a good track record.  Kevin tells me that two members recently received job offers.  Congrats to the Notes from the Job Search group, and keep up the good work!
