I would sign up. I have nothing to lose. Job searching, which requires resume, cover letter writing, and interviewing are things that the university education does not prepare you for. I feel embarrassed that I haven't gotten a job yet. I wasted so much time after I graduate doing nothing for months on end. If I would have been in the mindset I am now I would probably have a job already or at very least have more chances at a job offer.

Not only that but you can use that as a networking opportunity along with receiving job hunting tips?
