About us
Founded in 2015, The White Box Club®—appropriately named after the daunting white boxes many employees receive to "pack up their things"—was created to provide free live coaching sessions, encouragement, and resources to anyone laid off, unemployed, or in a career transition. Online webinars and in-person meetings feature top-notch coaches and industry experts sharing their best insider tips and "golden nuggets" of wisdom and inspiration in an optimistic and encouraging environment.

Are your STARs Shining?
3025 Southlawn Dr, 3025 Southlawn Dr, Maplewood, MN 55109, USA, Maplewood, MN, USIf you’re job searching, your stories are your superpower. They’re how you turn a list of accomplishments into a clear, memorable narrative that shows hiring teams exactly why you’re the right fit. But even strong experience can fall flat if the STAR isn’t structured well, doesn’t match the role, or simply isn’t the right story for the moment.
If your recruiter screening stalls, your LinkedIn feels generic, or your interview answers don’t land, your STARs might need a tune‑up.
