i have a suggestion for a DU group |
|
would anybody be interested in starting a DU group for career help and advice? I think it might be helpful for people switching careers, recent college graduates, and just job seekers in general. any takers?

10. Good idea for people who have been downsized, outsourced |
|
and need to switch careers due to the shitty economy. Also, a good place to vent when you do get canned!

14. That's an excellent idea...! People could go there for ideas, and |
|
those with gainful employment could write short essays on their career...highlighting education requirements, licensing etc. Wonderful idea!

17. a potential mission statement |
|
The purpose of this group is to provide a forum for users to express ideas and advice related to various careers and career seeking methods. Additionally, helpful and interesting information related to jobs and the job markets could be exchanged to inform and be discussed amongst group participants.
Anything to add? Anything somebody would like to change?
thanks for all your help!

And older workers could share their experiences with newer ones. I'd be willing to.
