What we’re about
Founded in 2015, The White Box Club®—appropriately named after the daunting white boxes many employees receive to "pack up their things"—was created to provide free live coaching sessions, encouragement, and resources to anyone laid off, unemployed, or in a career transition. Online webinars and in-person meetings feature top-notch coaches and industry experts sharing their best insider tips and "golden nuggets" of wisdom and inspiration in an optimistic and encouraging environment.

We look forward to seeing you at an upcoming meeting!

•OnlineMake Interviewing a Conversation
OnlineOnce you get to that interview with a real live person, talk to them like a real live person! Going into an interview with the mindset that it is a two-way conversation puts you where you should be--evaluating the company and its people just as much as they are evaluating you. Will you have a match? If you're speaking to each other on equal footing, it's far easier to find out.
Come to this session of The White Box Club® to get tips and advice on how to do just that! TWBC facilitator Steve Semler will share ways to prepare yourself for a conversation so you can go into your interviews with a mindset that makes interviewing easier (and less stressful).
