Join Us

The quality of both its resources and its members have earned WIND its reputation as the premier networking group of its kind in New England. WIND is widely respected by corporations, recruiters, employment agencies and outplacement firms alike, who frequently volunteer their time to speak at WIND meetings about the job search, and who regularly refer their clients to WIND.

Regular attendance at WIND meetings is highly beneficial. There is always new and pertinent information to facilitate your career search, and meeting regularly with others in a similar situation is a recognized way to maintain a positive attitude.

Professionals who receive outplacement or other job search assistance can attend WIND meetings. WIND acts as a complement to any job search training you may already be receiving, by providing a weekly forum in which to network and to hone your job search skills.
