We'll start this week?s meeting with strictly timed 30 second introductions, then give each attendee 5 minutes to talk about what?s currently important in your job search (sharing target companies, recommendations for answering a challenging interview question, sharing an accomplishment story or a branding statement for feedback, or anything else where you need assistance). We can have a group discussion on a topic that came out of the individual sharing time if there is time left at the end.
