The Ability to Learn is Your Most Important Skill by Alexandra Levit - Nov, 2009 When employers talk about desirable skills they look for in new hires, they usually mean things like marketing, IT, budgeting, and project management. But what about the ability to learn? I’m not kidding. Let’s say a 20-something employee, we’ll call her Amy, starts a new job as a sales representative at a Fortune 500 software company. She graduated from college fairly recently and has never done sales before, so her boss e... |

Optimize Your Job Hunt For Today’s Ecomony by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009 As a career coach and blogger, I am constantly seeking inspiration and looking for messages to convert into job search advice for my readers. So, when I watched a commercial for Lexus, one sound byte really resonated with me: You can’t change traffic, so change the way you drive through it! How true – there is so much that individuals do not control. The economy. The weather. The neighbors’ barking dogs. I bet someone on... |

Seven Observations From My Day at the Job Fair by Dawn Bugni - Nov, 2009 Today, I’m sharing some observations and insights gained while volunteering to do resume reviews at a local mall for a job fair. To say I’m disgusted by what I saw is an understatement. And I’m not talking about the resumes. I’m used to seeing boring career autobiographies, all out career confessionals and self-centered, “this is what I want” documents. That’s not what bothered me. That can easily be fixed. That’s what I do. W... |

Is There A Reason You Are Not Getting A Job? by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009 Let me tell you the tale of two job seekers. One has been out of a job for almost a year. She is really tired of looking for work, and chafes at the idea of ramping up her networking. She “doesn’t have time” to optimize her LinkedIn profile and focus on using Twitter for the job hunt. Even thought she has a great resume and terrific experience, she has a tough time getting engaged in the hunt and she has nothing good to say... |

Is Your Job Search “Cookie-Cutter” or “Hand-Dropped”? by Dawn Bugni - Nov, 2009 One of the first questions I ask clients in the resume creation process is who’s our audience? I tell them we have to know what our buyer is buying before we can sell to them. I may conduct all my business over the telephone, but I know a “deer in the headlights” look when I hear one. If necessary, I back up a bit and say, “OK, let’s talk about, how you’re searching.” I want clients to see their skills as a product, the hir... |

Job Search Tenacity Through a Blind Dog’s Eyes by Dawn Bugni - Nov, 2009 Bart wandered in our lives on a Saturday night. Strangely enough, he appeared on the eve of the day we said good-bye to Sadie. It was almost as if he knew there’d be an opening for a dog at our house and he was Johnny-on-the-spot ready to fill it. We had and now, thanks to Bart, still have six dogs... At first glance, I thought he was a young dog. Always smiling, tail wagging, full of energy and happy, incredibly, smile-ins... |

Look At Every Available Option To Land A Job by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009 I recently watched 20/20. A very interesting show with the authors of Superfreakonomics, Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner. James Altucher from the Wall Street Journal writes: SuperFreakonomics,” by the economist Steven Levitt and writer Stephen Dubner, is not only a book with mind-blowing ideas, innovative research and quality investigative journalism, it’s also a story about creativity and what it takes to get the mindset... |
