"The Five O'Clock Club product is much better,
far more useful, than my outplacement package."
-A Five
O'Clock Club Member
"The Club meetings kept the juices
flowing. You meet with people weekly, you're told what to do, what not
to do. Job hunting can be very lonely. There were fresh ideas. I went
through an outplacement service that, frankly, did not help. If
they had done as much as the Five O'Clock Club did, I would have landed
sooner."
-A Five O'Clock Clubber
"Most of the club's members are 35-55 years old and a third of them
earn more than $100,000 a year. Rather than allowing jobs to define
their lives, the [Five O'Clock] Club's members are encouraged to decide
on their own goals--to imagine what sort of person they want to be in 40
years' time, for example--and then to design their careers around that
goal. [The Club] has thrived because it is catering to fundamental
changes in working life."
THE ECONOMIST, January 29th, 2000
"One organization with a long record of success in helping people find
jobs is The Five O'Clock Club."
FORTUNE

"Many managers left to fend for themselves are turning to the camaraderie
offered by [The Five O'Clock Club]. Members share tips and advice, and
hear experts."
The Wall Street Journal
"If you have been out of work for some time . . . consider The Five
O'Clock Club."
The New York Times
"Wendleton has reinvented the historic gentlemen's fraternal oasis and
built it into a chain of strategy clubs for job seekers."
The Philadelphia Inquirer
"In eighteen years of career
counseling and coaching, I have seen nothing as good as Kate's
book. It combines sound, practical advice about the hiring
process with profound wisdom and humor regarding the inner
issues stirred up by transition. Kate
has struck: shrewdness about the hiring process and the courage to face inner issues.
Great work!"
William Pilder, Chairman,
TransKey
"[The Five O'Clock Club] will ask not what you do, but 'What do you
want to do?' . . . [And] don't expect to get any great happy hour drink
specials at this joint. The two-hour seminars are all business."
The Washington Times
"The Five O'Clock Club's proven philosophy is that job hunting is a
learned skill like any other. The Five O'Clock Club becomes the engine
that drives [your] search."
Black Enterprise
"Job hunting is a science at The Five O'Clock Club. [Members] find the
discipline, direction and much-needed support that keeps a job search
on track."
Modern Maturity
"I have doubled my salary
during

earn what I deserve. I think everyone needs The Five
O'Clock Club."
-M.S.,
attorney, entertainment industry
