Professional associations: Why you should join one and how to get the most out of it

Dear Coach Joan,

I have been working as a technical recruiter for high tech companies for the last two years. I had been doing well, and actually enjoyed the work very much, but unfortunately the small recruiting consultancy I've been working for has closed. I need to find new employment and was recommended to find a professional organization where I can network, and hopefully find a new job. In researching online, I found a fairly local high tech recruiting professional association. There is a cost for joining, and I'm wondering how to make the most out of investing in a membership. Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Best,

Terry
