1. THE NETWORKING CLASSIFIEDS
Not everyone has time to attend networking events, and our new "Networking Classifieds” posting board makes it possible for you to network “virtually” any time of the day or night. In this members-only section of our web site, you can post a networking request or offer to help the other members in our network. Looking to return to work and interested in speaking to other former advertising professionals? Thinking about downsizing your partner track law career? Looking to make a 360 degree mid-life career change? Trying to find a way to “give back” by mentoring other women in your field? Any and all networking needs can be met by this innovative online resource.
2. DAILY WORK, LIFE AND WISDOM
When you’re seeking new work-life opportunities sometimes the smallest bit of information can spark an idea and get you off and running in a positive new direction. Now Women@Work members can log on to our web site every day to get work-life inspiration that will help you define your skills, sharpen your resume, ace an interview, narrow your job search and more. We’ll point out work-life news you can use from various press sources, tell you about women who have found work-life balance and offer our own wisdom as you consider many paths to career fulfillment.
3. 10% OFF ALL WOMEN@WORK PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Women@Work offers an array of products and services that emphasize skill identification, professional “packaging” and work-life balance.

4. TWO FREE INSPIRATION FORUMS
Throughout the year Women@Work features Inspiration Forums -- interactive discussions held via conference call on a wide variety of career and work-life balance related topics. These are great opportunities to gather insights, ideas and inspiration from smart women around the globe—and member participation is free twice a year. ($50 value.) Click here to view upcoming events.
5. FOUR SKILL-BUILDING E-GUIDES
As soon as you join Women@Work, you can download these four e-guides ($100 value) that inform key aspects of your job search:
“No Time to Work?” An e-guide for returning professionals who say that they’d like to work, but they could never fit work into their very busy family commitments. A worksheet tracks volunteer time—and shows most “mega-volunteers” that they already have the equivalent of a part-time job! While you’re tracking time, you’re also tracking business skills to highlight on your resume. (Current professionals can pass this e-guide along to a friend who is contemplating work.)
R.E.S.U.M.E 101, a resume writing e-guide that helps you Remember Every Skill and Underscore Major Experiences! You’ll hone in on business skills you’ve developed in non-profit and for-profit settings and draw from a Resume Thesaurus that is filled with powerful business terms that pack your resume with power.
“Make Your Net-Work”, an e-guide to avoiding the job-hunter’s “Bermuda Triangle”—sending resumes to strangers—and identifying your hidden network of valuable contacts who can lead you to important leads and real jobs.
“Interview Revue”, an e-guide to playing the leading role in the interview that is based on your true life and work story.
6. FREE NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES ACROSS THE U.S. AND AROUND THE GLOBE
In the New York and Boston Metropolitan area, Women@Work continues to host general networking events for groups of current or returning professionals. Many of these meetings are held in our Wilton, CT offices. For women in other locations, it is now also possible to join a special interest networking group in your local area. Women@Work chapters are now being formed around the country--and as far away as Canada, France and Dubai! Contact Anne Farkas to learn more about our networking events and how they can be tailored to the needs and interests of women in your personal and professional networks.
7. A 10% PLACEMENT DISCOUNT FOR YOUR EMPLOYER
As a member you can pass on a 10% placement discount to your employer—and give them access to a constantly growing network of what is now more than 4,000 current and returning professional mid to senior level women.
