The Six People Who Should Join a Private Club

No longer just for the wealthy or well-connected, today’s private clubs are hubs for networking, socializing, dining, and traveling. If you’re one of the following types of people, you could get a lot out of membership in a private club.

PEOPLE WHO ARE AMBITIOUS.
Want to move up in your career? Most of the time, it takes a great personal network to hear about the best opportunities. Members of private clubs are usually some of the area’s most influential people, so they hear about interesting jobs not posted publicly. And members of private clubs love to refer other members for these opportunities.

FOODIES.
Some of the best restaurants you can’t get into are found in private clubs. Gone are the days of boring “club food” – chefs today have been recruited from fine restaurants and enjoy exercising their creativity for club members.

PEOPLE WHO WANT TO HAVE FUN.
The Harvard Club hosts about 200 exclusive member events per year – everything from craft beer and cider tastings to lectures from the region’s top academics and authors. There’s something for everyone, and as a member, you’ll always know somebody at the event.

PEOPLE WHO LOVE TO TRAVEL.
With 140 reciprocal clubs worldwide, the Harvard Club is a great place for globe-trotters. Whether you’re going to Hawaii, London, Australia, or New York, we have a place for you to land. Private clubs are usually located in the central city area, and room rates are typically much lower than nearby hotels. Plus, you’ll get the service and privacy found only in a private club.

NEWBIES.
New to the area? Then a private club is especially good for you. Membership in a club helps you make new friends, gets you integrated into the community, and helps with your transition.

PEOPLE WHO WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE ROYALTY.
What if you could walk into a place, and by the time you got to the bar, the bartender would already have your drinks ready? What if everyone there knew your name – and your kid’s names? And if everyone’s goal was to create a wonderful experience, just for you. That’s what you get at a private club.
