Kate HDate Secured Job: 1/4/21
Thank you for another great session today. I never under estimate how much work you do behind the scenes to make the weekly meetings happen.

I also wanted to let you and the other trustees know that I have found a new role as a PA – I am super excited, relieved and emotional all in one!

Being part of the M3 Job Club has been absolutely wonderful. If I could please ask for you to pass on my thanks to the trustees and all of the presenters for all that they do in providing a safe place for people like me who are looking for a new role. It can be soul destroying receiving rejection or not even receiving any replies after applying for what you think is your perfect role. There have been days I did not want to get out of bed, let alone switch my laptop on. However joining the weekly calls as part of my routine and the additional one day courses has been more valuable than you will ever know.

If anyone reads my LinkedIn profile, you will see that my favourite quote is ‘At the end of the day people won’t remember what you said or did, they will remember how you made them feel.’ Maya Angelou. I will never, ever forget how everyone at the M3 Job Club has made me feel, thank you.

I wish my fellow clubbers every success and happiness in finding their next roles and as for you and the trustees, I wish you all the happiness in the world as you deserve it for your continued kindness and encouragement.

Firstly, thank you. I am so relieved to say I have a JOB!!!

Redundancy left me reeling for a very long time. Needless to say that all of you, as well as the leads (some with you) on the individual workshops like LinkedIn, CV Conundrum, Goal Mapping, Mock Interviews, Personal Mapping etc, have given me the tools, have simply empowered me, to be confident and know my worth! And to go forth and apply for jobs properly, without the knee jerk reaction I had initially. You have all gathered me within your wings, slapped me about a bit saying you ‘are worth something you silly woman!’ and released me to fly off with another type of wind beneath my wings. That of my own making.

So am waxing lyrical here. Just wanted to impart my thoughts as they are fresh in my mind!

I believe that every single county should have a group like this, people like you to help guide and mentor them to find their new pathways.

Best wishes, and I hope I will get to meet you face-2-face when it’s finally allowed, in Basingstoke.

Darren RDate Secured Job: 6 May 2020
After leaving my previous role, the first action I took was re-joining the M3 Job Club. This is such a valuable resource that I knew I had to go back and join in the weekly Friday programme. I was pleasantly surprised to find that workshops were now being offered and I attended those too. The opportunity for 1 2 1 coaching was excellent and helped to back up what had been learned on the Friday morning session as well as from the workshops. I took advantage of getting myself a professional photo for my LinkedIn profile as well as a face to face mock interview and 1 2 1 advice on my CV. The support shown by everyone is so reassuring.
I highly recommend the M3 Job Club to anyone who needs help and support during their job hunting and I encourage them to make signing up with the M3 Job Club top of their list of things to do.

M3JC would like to wish Darren every success in his new adventure as a
Field Services Manager with Lenovo.
NB.

Freddie WDate Secured Job: 1/4/20
“I found it very supporting to network with other similar aged and like-minded people in the same position as myself. This made the journey a little easier knowing I was not the only one facing these same challenges. Although I was only around for a short while the guests and their presentations were always top quality and contained invaluable guidance and direction.
The M3 job club has a fantastic set up and provides most welcoming support & guidance whilst going through the journey back to employment.”
Freddie started work for a National Company as Head of Network Development.
Mike BDate Secured Job: 30/3/20
“Each session that I have attended were informative and I also had the opportunity to network with like-minded individuals. Particularly useful was the mock interview preparation on a 1-2-1 bases provided by Gill, who took the time to listen and understand me as a person (not just as a generic candidate) and provide some very detailed feedback.
After several months of job searching I am very grateful to have joined the M3 Job Club as they have created a very strong ‘community-feel’ where professionals from all walks of life are welcomed to rely on a trusted service and, best of all, for free! They provide some great insights around career-search from professionals with years of expertise. Some of the services I have enjoyed were around: in-depth CV analysis and editing, LinkedIn profiling and practical hints and helpful tips to get hired. Also, they offer the opportunity to network with some great individuals that can support each other which I believe is a great added benefit of joining the M3 Job Club. I personally recommend them as they have literally rescued my career and got me back on track. Massive thank you for your support! MB.”

“I learnt a great deal from every session I attended at M3JC. All the advice received from various consultants at the club was invaluable towards securing my new role.
M3 Job Club is not just a job club, but it is a knowledge hub for anyone looking for their next role. Every consultant who presents at the job club is an expert in their field, their advice was invaluable towards securing my current role.
Consultants give expert advice on CV writing, interviews, LinkedIn profiles, mindfulness and much more. All the advice is geared towards helping the job seeker through what can be a difficult period in their life and securing their next role.

Carol BDate Secured Job: 27/1/20
“After being made redundant and not sure what to do, a member of the Job Centre suggested I go to the M3 Job Club. I found it very inspirational as I saw other people in the same position as me and the weekly speakers gave me thoughtful ideas to my job searching. I would like to thank Gill Cheesewright for her input to my presentation for an interview and Nikki Wilde for the 1 2 1 coaching, all the speakers were a good and on subjects which you might think of when looking for a job. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending M3 Job Club, in fact I did recommend a temp colleague I just recently worked with, hopefully he will come along.”
