Joining ot have access to the job bank or to network for jobs are both
perfectly valid reasons for joining the STC.

Heck, I know a few people who joined the local Chamber of Commerce just
for networking opportunities. Having access to low cost meeting space
at the Chamber office, access to mounds of research material at the
local World Trade Center, getting member rates to the President's Ball
in January, access to group insurance rates, and the like were just
incidental.
