What began at the beginning of the pandemic in March of 2020 as a networking group, has grown into the Job Seekers' Garden Club of St. Louis. Started on LinkedIn as a private group called the “Greater St Louis Job Seekers, Recruiters and Connectors” it’s grown, in 2020, from 40 people to nearly 5,000

The networking group is open to
anyone in the Greater St. Louis area pursuing the next step in their career
