Member Experience
How Members Describe Their SENG Experience
“Since day one, the experience and value of SENG-NE has been exceptional and unique. From impactful, structured networking breakfasts with like-minded senior professionals, to insightful and timely career guidance and “pep talks”. Importantly, SENG-NE means being a part of a living network that acts/responds when called upon, providing the help, the “push”, and the response with mutual connections and referrals. During my job search I participated in associations, industry events, trade shows, and other networking groups. By comparison, the return on the effort, time, and money spent with SENG-NE was invaluable and unparalleled.”
“I can’t begin to thank you enough for all your support and kindness. I have great news to share. I have accepted an offer that is a great fit; I will be starting a meeting/event group within the business unit. I look forward to seeing SENG group members at one of the evening networking alumni events. I have met so many great people through SENG who I have learned so much from and I look forward to staying in touch with them. I know I will be busy as my role starts but will try and help those SENG members that I am able to.”
“As anyone will tell you, 75% - 85% of all jobs are found through networking. But not all networking is created equal. Often through trial and error you learn what is effective and what can be a waste of precious time in a job search. SENG is an organization comprised of Senior Executives that recognize the value of effective networking and assisting others during their search process. The group is very professional and the members give unselfishly of themselves to help others. I have found SENG to be highly effective in providing support, counsel, meaningful networks, and lasting relationships. I plan to continue my membership as an alumnus now that I have found a new opportunity in order to continue to strengthen my network.”
“SENG offers a unique forum for senior executives to network. Gathering executives at the higher echelons of management produces results. The attention is on sharing leads and continuously improving job search strategy. The cost is low and the results are quantifiable. For all these reasons I refer SENG to my unemployed senior executives. The feedback received from those who have joined is that this networking group is both effective in job searching and in building long-term professional relationships.”
“I have been active in many networking groups, but SENG is by far the best group that I have belonged to. Its membership is both professional and welcoming. It was extremely helpful to me during my transition and I plan to continue to participate, as I have found that ongoing networking needs to be a fundamental element to my work life. ”
“As you know, I am a big fan of SENG.
I have been very active in several networking groups and I have found SENG to be an excellent resource. SENG provides efficient and effective networking with high-quality senior leaders across a wide spectrum of positions and industries. The group is welcoming and professional and my network now includes many folks I first met in SENG. I highly recommend joining and participating with this valuable organization during your job search.”
“I have visited many networking groups, but SENG is the only one that I find consistently helpful. I leave every meeting with new contacts and opportunities. The mix of professionals of all disciplines makes it easy to share and exchange leads. Both the leadership and membership are supportive with great feedback and suggestions. I have developed many long term relationships from SENG. I strongly recommend anyone in transition, or just trying to build business relationships, come try out a session.”
“Over the years I have been a member of numerous networking groups. I have found that both the structured and informal SENG networking sessions to be extremely productive in making new contacts. The membership is very helpful and always willing to assist. I am currently a member of the management team for a new venture as a result of contacts I made at a recent SENG meeting. I would not hesitate to recommend SENG to anyone seeking to network and further their career.”
“Having been active in many networking groups, I have found SENG to be best group that I have attended – and now joined.
