Oakland, New Jersey, February 27, 2012 ? The Oakland Public Library is pleased to announce the formation of the Oakland chapter of Neighbors-helping-Neighbors (NhN), a volunteer moderator led organization offering free weekly support and networking meetings for people actively seeking employment.

NhN is a free, highly successful and recognized peer-led volunteer support group for people who are actively looking for work and would like to beginor re-invigorate their job search. The members include anyone in career transition, recent college grads, laid-off workers, unemployed or
underemployed professionals, persons re-entering in the job market or struggling small business owners and retirees looking for part time or volunteer work.

Founded in River Edge in January, 2011, NhN has fostered an environment in which group members assist each other in job search techniques and suggestions based on personal experience plus personal and professional networking. Resources are available at the Oakland Public Library to assist members of the public with their job search.

?Not feeling alone or powerless are critical factors in a job search, particularly for those who have been out of work for an extended period of time,? explained John Fugazzie, founder and group leader of NhN. ?Support, discussion and information sharing can make all the difference. It helps re-build the confidence needed to successfully implement the steps to land a job. During our initial 13 months, 55 group members ? including myself ? found jobs as a direct result of regularly attending meetings and putting to use the tips and techniques the group provides.?
