Our objective is to support each other, share leads and discuss general intelligence about the market. If you are available we'd love to have you attend -- dress is "job interview" attire, or "dressy" business casual.
As always, this is a great opportunity to network, practice your “elevator” speech and share ideas & tips with fellow FENG members.
We meet every month, so try to keep the date available. Interviews, work, and family emergencies are good exceptions.
