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... |

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 ... |

Tax Information For Your Job Hunt by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009 Did you know you can deduct some expenses associated with a job hunt from your taxes? There are some exceptions. You cannot deduct expenses if this is your first job hunt (for example, if you have just graduated from college and have never worked before) and you cannot deduct expenses if you are planning to change careers. Since I am not a tax advisor, I thought it would be useful to direct you to the IRS’s website. Be sure... |

Tenacity in the job hunt – does it define you? by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009 This article is inspired by my cat. She knows how to go after what she wants. Yesterday, I made the mistake of putting down a mug of milk while I continued to work. She went after it. I said, “no,” and moved the mug to the other side of the desk. She went slinking around the other side of me to try to dive into that mug. Again, I moved the cup, this time covering it with a book so she couldn’t put her nose in it. Undeterred, s... |

If you haven’t started, dive into social media and Web 2.0 applications! Yes, this can take some time if you are going to do it full force. But, you have time, so go for it! Start searching f... |
