JobNet 2.0 Virtual Session - LinkedIn

JobNet 2.0 is a new group developed by the Bay Area Human Resources Connections (baHRC), designed specifically for HR and TA professionals navigating career transitions. This isn’t just another job board, panel, or passive event. It’s a peer-led initiative, facilitated by individuals who have experience on both sides of the hiring table. While baHRC will continue to focus on broader, strategic topics relevant to our profession, JobNet 2.0 is about building a supportive community for those in transition—offering connection, guidance, and a sense of belonging when it’s needed most.

We're looking forward to your participation in this conversation. Seize this opportunity to connect, learn, and advance together. This is a relational, not transactional, peer-led group, and we deeply value the confidentiality and respect we hold for one another. We hope to see you there!
