Our values.

  • Reciprocity.

    We believe in the power of mutual support. Every member has something valuable to offer, whether it's knowledge, experience, or encouragement. We create opportunities for meaningful exchange, where giving is as valuable as receiving.

  • Joy.

    Job searching doesn't have to be draining—we believe it can be energizing and full of possibility. We celebrate small wins, embrace optimism, and help each other see new opportunities. By approaching our career journeys with hope and excitement, we open ourselves to unexpected possibilities.

  • Usefulness.

    Everything we do has a purpose. We focus on practical, actionable support that moves members closer to their goals. No empty networking or surface-level connections—we're here to create real value for each other through concrete steps and meaningful assistance.

  • Authenticity.

    We create space for real conversations about career challenges. Members show up as their full selves, sharing both struggles and successes. We build genuine relationships that last beyond landing the next job. This isn't just another networking group—it's a true community of peers who care about each other's growth.

  • Confidence.

    We help each other build the confidence to pursue ambitious career moves. Through peer support, skill-building, and celebrating each win, members develop lasting self-assurance. We believe everyone deserves to feel confident in their professional value and capabilities.

FAQs

  • Verbena is uniquely designed for meaningful connection and practical progress. Unlike traditional networking groups or online forums, we combine structured support (like job search sprints and expert office hours) with genuine community building. Our members form lasting relationships, celebrate each other's wins, and provide real accountability and encouragement. Plus, our community is intentionally kept small to ensure quality connections and personalized support.

  • Yes! Many of our members join Verbena while they're in the exploration or planning phase of their career transition. This is actually a great time to join, as you can learn from peers who are further along in their journey, build your network before you need it, and develop a strategic approach to your future search. Our community supports members at all stages of their career journey from contemplation, searching, interviewing, negotiating, and starting your new role.

  • We believe in quality over quantity. While we offer multiple ways to engage each week, you can customize your involvement based on your schedule and goals. We recommend dedicating 2-3 hours per week to community activities, whether that's attending a workshop, participating in a job search sprint, or connecting with your accountability partner. The key is consistent, intentional engagement rather than a specific time commitment.

  • Everyone has valuable experience and insights to share, regardless of where they are in their career journey. Maybe you're great at proofreading resumes, have experience in a particular industry, or simply offer a fresh perspective on others' career questions. Our community is built on the principle that everyone has something to contribute, and we help you identify and share your unique strengths. Plus, sometimes the most valuable contribution is simply showing up and supporting others authentically.

  • Absolutely! Our community welcomes professionals across all industries and roles. While members may be looking for different positions—from tech to healthcare, nonprofit to corporate, creative to technical—the fundamentals of a successful job search are surprisingly universal. In fact, our diversity is a strength: you'll gain fresh perspectives from people outside your industry, while also connecting with peers in your field. The skills we build together (like crafting compelling career stories, negotiating offers, and building professional confidence) are valuable regardless of your target role.
