How a good one runs
What a good job search group plan looks like
Small tables instead of a crowd, a round of real introductions, and no pitching unless somebody asks. Most plans land between 4 and 12 people: enough energy, still easy to learn names.
Tip for your first one: bring one sentence about what you do and one question you want answered. That is all the preparation you need.

Job search group questions
Do I need to be good at job search group?
No. There are no levels for job search group. People come for the company as much as the thing itself.
What does it cost to join?
Your share of the plan’s costs, like a court or a table, split evenly and paid up front. On a free plan, the RSVP the host set. It is charged when the plan happens and is not refunded for cancelling or not coming, so everyone who says yes actually goes. If the plan does not happen, you are not charged.
What if the host cancels?
Nobody is charged, and you get a message straight away. The same happens if the plan does not reach its minimum number of people.
