Who this is for You've built real experience, yup decades of it. But somewhere along the way, the market started treating that experience like a liability instead of an asset. Applications go quiet. Recruiters skip past you for someone "more current." It's not that you've lost your edge yet it means we need new ways to make it visible. From Linkedin to Insta, you’d agree these platforms are saturated… So how do you stand-out or even share your expertise and insight? That’s why these tables are different - and actually work! Table note: Mixed-gender, open to all. About the Table's Host Ruth Webber is a career coach who runs Webber Coaching, based in Delft.

Some attendees are job-searching, others are consulting, advising, or figuring out what's next after a long career. What matters is you're navigating that transition. Will this feel like a room of recruiters and pitches? No! this is a working table, not a job fair. The focus is honest conversation, not selling yourself to a room. What if I'm not sure what I want next? That's a normal place to be at this table. Part of the conversation is figuring that out with people who understand the stakes.
