Welcome to The BENG

Members Helping Members

Peter Frost, President of BENG, said networking is critical as job searching strategies and career transition continues to change in this economy. “Those in transition can no longer rely on job search engines to fuel their search, they need to continuously build a network and stay connected to that network,” explains Frost. “Most new members begin to realize all of the networking contacts they let go during years of secure employment and they’re encouraged to become career networkers.”
Business Executives Networking Group "BENG is a non profit organization providing mid to senior level professionals seeking employment, with a forum that will facilitate their job search and enhance their networking skills. This multidiscipline, independent group of mid-to senior-level professionals contains job seekers and employed members.
