North Coast Job Seekers Meeting
Job Search
Troubleshooting Roundtable
We've all been there in our job searches... those times when we hit a speedbump or roadblock and need help talking it through. We have discovered in our virtual NCJS meetings that in addition to networking, some of our most valuable time is when we bring our issues to the group and ask for troubleshooting help. This meeting is a Roundtable of Experts -- ALL of us helping one another.
• Troubleshooting Help
• Tools & Tips
• Resource Sharing
• Networking
We will make the best use of this face-to-face time to help one another in a roundtable format. We will always have members of the community who have extensive experience, including our facilitators and board members. All are welcome and all are encouraged to seek input for solving those speedbumps and roadblocks.

ONLINE MEETINGS ON ZOOM PLATFORM
Beginning with our April 26, 2021 meeting we transitioned to Zoom (from GoToMeeting). Several features available in Zoom will add value to our meetings, particularly breakout rooms, in-meeting polls, and a slightly easier user interface. If you need help with Zoom, we have a few steps below or you can find many very helpful video tutorials online. We look forward to the new platform as we see our online meetings continuing in the foreseeable future.

Is it necessary to sign up in advance to come to a NCJS meeting?

NCJS Online Meetings
North Coast Job Seeker meetings are held online during this season of social distancing. Using a secure platform, our meetings continue virtually.
Using the familiar video conferencing platform, Zoom, we are continuing our most important NCJS services: Meeting "face-to-face" for networking, job search support, and presentations to assist professionals in transition. While not the same as "being there" with the group, these virtual meetings are a helpful time of connecting and networking. They also serve as good training ground for virtual interviews!
How to prepare for NCJS Virtual meetings:
NCJS Getting Started with Zoom Tutorial
This tutorial can help walk you through the steps of using Zoom for our
NCJS meetings. Topics in the tutorial include a general overview, how to connect
if you already use Zoom, how to download and install Zoom, and how to use Zoom
using your web browser without installing the Zoom app.
Additional Suggestions During the Coronavirus Crisis
Even during this pandemic, job search work does not take a pause. We have several recommendations and ways that NCJS can continue to support your job search networking and efforts:
We are committed to supporting you in whatever ways we can. We commit to keeping you informed of changes and updates to our scheduled events. Please be safe, smart, and help others do the same.
