1. Have you ever been laid off?
2. Did you just get laid off?
3. Do you fear of a layoff in the future?

Yes? -> This is the group for you!
No? -> You may still benefit greatly from this group

During this 'gloomy' time, we are not going to give up 'shining'. This group is about unlimited possibilities of growth and the exciting world of face-to-face and online networking with people from all walks of life. This is NOT a 'pity-party' group!

Our mission statement:
A supportive 'online as well as face-to-face' networking platform for people who are/have been either laid off or fear being laid off. By sharing their expertise in this user-friendly environment in terms of blogs, forums, personal resumes, and face-to-face networking not only will they enlighten others with their expertise but also make themselves more visible than the traditional job haunting tools because they will appear more readily in search engine results and among readers.
