GEN is pleased to announce our new partnership with First United Methodist Church of Douglasville (FUMC)! As we join together to better serve the needs of jobseekers in our community, we're also changing our meeting dates and times.
Starting Sept. 1, GEN will meet every Tuesday at First Presbyterian (FPC) from 7:30 am to 9 am. We'll still gather in rooms 203/204.
Starting Sept. 3, GEN will meet every Thursay at FUMC, from 7 pm to 9:30 pm, in Huffine Hall.
Please join us for either meeting, or both. They'll be designed to complement each other.
We're excited about this new partnership because it gives us even more networking opportunities, and an even larger pool of speakers and presenters to draw from. We're also going to contact other churches in Douglas County to ask for their help in finding job leads or otherwise assisting those who are in career transition.
Just to sum up:
As you may already know, GEN is God's Employment Network, a free group meeting that offers faith-based support, encouragement, job search skills, and networking opportunities. It is open to all members of our community who have been caught in the economic downsizing.
GEN is not an employment agency, but seeks to walk with you through a period of personal and career change. GEN meetings will give you insights into creating a job search plan, resume writing, interviewing, and much more.
We will post job leads on this blog as often as we receive them, and we encourage you to network with each other. Please read the blog often and post any comments you have that might help someone else find a good job.
If you find a job lead through GEN, it's up to you to take the initiative from there by sending a resume to the employer, giving them a phone call, or making contact in some other appropriate way. Be sure that our prayers will be with you through this process.
Here are the directions to the new GEN meeting places. Hope to see you there!
Join us for coffee, networking, and fellowship!
