Welcome to the St. Mary Job Search Support Group!

Greetings! 

On behalf of Father Aidan Donahue and St. Mary Parish of Milford, Conn, Welcome to the St. Mary Job Search Support Group! 

The St.Mary Job Search Support Group - JSSG, will hold its first meeting on Tuesday September 17, 2013 at 7:30 p.m. in the meeting area in the rectory basement. The JSSG will meet once a month. 

This blog will serve as information central for the JSSG. Meeting schedules, meeting agenda, information about speakers when we can get them, links to other job search support groups as well as any changes in meetings schedules or times can be found on this blog. 

In addition, if I, or any other person finds an interesting article on the job search, I will post it here on the blog. 

The JSSG is a ministry of St. Mary Parish and falls under the Community Outreach and Support (COS) Committee of the Parish Council (one the advisory groups for our Pastor, Father Donahue). 

The JSSG is open to most anyone who is searching for a job that might like to attend as long as attendees respect the property and spirit of our church. For instance, we will begin every meeting with a prayer.

Networking will be a key component of our meetings. How much time is devoted to various aspects of the job search will depend on the number of people that attend. 

Typically there will be a topic of the night that the Chair (me) will discuss. I hope to find guest speakers to talk to the group. After the topic of the night, there will be an "Introduction" segment of the meeting where attendees will introduce themselves and tell the group a little about their job search and the type of position they are looking for. Then the last part of the meeting will be for networking.
