  Finding Opportunity In Difficult Times: How Do You Do That?
by Marshall Brown - Nov, 2009
“Oh dear!” cried Chicken Little, “the sky is falling. I must go tell the king.” The expression “the sky is falling” has become synonymous with a person jumping to an irrational conclusion and working everyone they meet into a panic. It can be argued that this is happening with the current economic situation, the public is being whipped into mass hysteria. Whether you believe the economic “sky” is falling (or that i...
 
  New City & No Job? Five Steps to Finding Work
by Mary Sherwood Sevinsky - Nov, 2009
I have had a couple of clients ask me how to network now that they have moved. Career change is hard enough, let alone finding new network contacts in an unfamiliar area. First, let me recommend that you have your career goal in mind and, preferably, at least partially achieved. It surprises me how many people move without having a job or even the prospect of a job – not the independently wealthy, mind you, just regularly folk...
 
  The Role of Recruiters in Your Job Hunt
by Randy Wooden - Nov, 2009
During my career I’ve not only provided private and corporate outplacement, but I’ve also spent years as a headhunter (executive search) and have worked inside corporations as an in-house recruiter. And I’ve been a job seeker myself. So I bring a diverse experience when assisting someone’s job hunt. I’m often told, “I’ll hold off on contracting with you because I want to have a recruiter place me for free.” The reality i...
 
  Stand Out In A Sea Of Sameness
by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009
There’s no shortage of information about how difficult the job market is right now. Over and over, job seekers look for ways to “stand out,” to be one in a crowd, to grab (and keep) the attention of the hiring manager. You might be surprised to know that it may not be as difficult as you think to stand out in a crowded market. Some ideas for your consideration: - Know what you have to offer. You would be surprised (or ma...
 
  Don’t Be a “People Person” In Your Job Search
by Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter - Nov, 2009
I understand the impulse to flesh out one’s career value with sweeping generalities: • I’m a people person (or, I’m really good with people; or, I like people). • I’m very strategic. • I’m attentive to detail. • I’m very organized. • I’m results oriented. • I’m innovative. • I think outside the box. • I’m a change leader. • I’m a team leader. • I bring people together. I discourage this approach in favor of a mo...
 
  Eating Bananas Doesn’t Make You an Ape
by Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter - Nov, 2009
As co-coordinator with my colleague, Miriam Salpeter, I am proud to help launch a new community of expert career advisors and resume writing professionals called the Career Collective. This article is one of many responses to the question, “Are you a cookie cutter job seeker?” Please follow our hashtag on Twitter: #careercollective. So, you are the guy with the master’s degree in the same thing your job competitors have a m...
 
  Effective Job Search Strategies
by Debra Wheatman - Nov, 2009
How many people do you know that know exactly what to do to plan for a job search and identify opportunities? Most people I speak to don’t even know where to begin. They have a better understanding of quantum physics than they do of the way to undertake a job search. I am sure this has much to do with the human component to job searching. Once other people are thrown into the mix, the entire system goes haywire, all logic goes...
 
  How To Find Out What Job You Should Do Next
by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009
Are you doing what you SHOULD be doing? Does you job fill you with excitement and passion? (Not THAT kind!) Do you REALLY enjoy your work, or is it just a means to an end? When job seekers contact me and don’t know what they want to do next, I tell them I can’t help them. Actually, that’s not exactly what I tell them. I do explain that I only work with people who know their next target job. I don’t write “general resumes,” ...
 
  Six Tips to Hit Your Job-Target Bullseye
by Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter - Nov, 2009
After a recent consultation with a job seeker, I was inspired to post the following on Twitter (via @ValueIntoWords): Often hear re: job target, “I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.” Take a stand, be somebody~focus on a bullseye. Harry Urschel, also a Twitterer via @eExecutives and founder of the recruiting company under the same name, followed with this value-add post: No one can help you find a job if you can’t...
 
  Structure Your Time To Land A Job Sooner
by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009
Have you been thinking about how you are using your time? My friend Jessica recently wrote about the topic of how she spends her job seeking time. She breaks it down pretty well – and notes that it keeps her pretty busy, eight hours a day! When is the last time you really sat down to review how you were spending your hours? I think about this all the time as a business owner. What is the best use of my time? How can I help ...
