Time for a Career Change? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 It’s a tough economy! No question about it. As people get laid-off, many find that it’s difficult to find their next job. Many decide that since they’re struggling to find a new job in their field, they may be better off making a career change. Is that the best answer? Will it make their job search easier? Maybe, but not likely! There are, at times, very good reasons to leave the old behind and pursue something new. H... |

Keeping A Job You Hate by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 This is a painful issue always. But especially now. Times are tough. People are terrified about losing their jobs and not being able to find another one. So they’re hanging on to what they’ve got, whether or not they’re miserable. But hating your job is awful and feels even awfuler in these last dwindling days of August, when it seems everyone is on vacation or otherwise enjoying life. Even President Obama. Not so ... |

No-Nos For New Jobs by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 A friend just landed a new job! Woo-hoo! She phoned with the good news and then asked this question, “Do you have any tips for how I should act my first week on the job?” Ha. Of course, WG has tips. Weirdly, they seem to all be negative–what not to do. Hmmm. Anyway, here they are: Don’t be late. Are you thinking, “Duh”? But being late that first week brands you as a tardy person. You don’t want this. Even if yo... |

Tick, Tick, Tick by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 Doncha hate meetings? Most do. But even though they’re often an enormous waste of time, meetings still happen in every business, every day. Consider these ways to make meetings shorter. Some are so obvious it hurts. Some are sort of mean. Only hold a meeting if it’s really necessary. Duh. But how many completely useless meetings have you been to? Start on time. Punish latecomers. Charge them a buck. Make th... |

Should I Quit My Job? by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 Seems like an insane question, doesn’t it? Nowadays most people are just trying to hold on to the jobs they’ve got. But say you have a really awful job. You hate, despise, loathe it. It pays like dirt, you have no chance of improving it, and it makes every single day of your life an unbearable hell. Should you just quit? Of course if you read the news about the soaring unemployment rate, the “jobless” recovery, the ... |

Five Words You Don’t Want to Be Caught Saying After a Layoff by Mary Sherwood Sevinsky - Nov, 2009 Today a long time friend was laid off “unexpectedly” – she was given no notice and turned in her company computer and phone on the spot. Nothing against her employer (business IS business), but she was left ill-prepared, to say the least. “I have a few cards,” she told me in a flat monotone. “I am eerily calm.” Of course, I offered my commiseration and any help in the way of a resume and contacts. HOWEVER, I was absolut... |

Office Politics Dos and Don'ts by Alexandra Levit - Nov, 2009 DO - Set boundaries as to how you use various social networks (e.g. Facebook for personal, LinkedIn for professional) and make sure you communicate those boundaries so that feelings aren't hurt. DON'T let your boss and co-workers catch you chatting and playing with Facebook applications when you should be working. DO - Use your real name on Twitter to network with people you wouldn't have the chance to communicate with in ... |

Tell-Tale Characteristics of Company Culture by Rob Taub - Nov, 2009 Many companies today promote building teams over individuals; respecting the entry-level mailroom clerk and the top salesperson equally; consider failure the beginning not the end of developing talents and careers; and where ‘Values’ are not fads. Still in other companies you will find a lack of esprit de corps where departments operate as fiefdoms not work in partnership with one another; where leadership is assigned not earn... |

Would You Brush a Hippo’s Teeth? by Dawn Bugni - Nov, 2009 As you may already know, I ran a pet sitting service in addition to my resume writing enterprise. (October 5th I notified clients I was shutting down.) If you think working for corporate America is demanding, try caring for someone’s animals in their own home. Goodness me, the stories I could tell. I also volunteer as a Career Expert for Careerealism’s Twitter Advice Project (T.A.P.) Anonymous individuals pose job search an... |

Is it Time To Say Goodbye - Why It Might Be The Right Time To Quit Your Job, Even In The Current Economy by Debra Wheatman - Nov, 2009 Is it the time? Do you really think so? Even in this economy? Quit your job. There, I said it. Many of us think about it. You think to yourself “I would love to get out of here – permanently.” How do you determine when it’s time to go? I speak to many people who lament their current work situation; yet, they are loath to do anything about it; plus the economy stinks – there are no jobs. Why? From my experience it’s because peo... |
