Grab a Coffee and Let's Chat!
Upcoming event alert! Our Professional Development committee is working hard to bring our members some quality content. This chat will feature Steve Dalton who is the author of "2-Hour Job Search". In his cutting edge book, he provides an ultra-specific process for using technology to find a job faster. Steve advocates conducting an advocacy-based, not application based, job search.

In 2012, Penguin Random House published Dalton’s debut book and Steve’s concepts are now taught at over a hundred universities worldwide. Dalton is a regular contributor at The Huffington Post and is regularly quoted in the media, including The Wall Street Journal, U.S. News, Fast Company, and Financial Times, among others.
