Change is coming across the United States and across the Globe. After listening to rants and raves, reading articles, listening to the news, and C-span, BBC, we are all in a state of change. Change has been with us since the beginning of time so I don't exactly understand why we think it is all so strange. Perhaps we are in a state of how do we change our career, our lives to adapt to the current situation.
I also, pay close attend to trends. If you Google trends for the next few years you will see that Education, Accounting and It won't have so much of a hard time.
I think one beautiful gift is to think positive despite circumstances. This is a great moment in time for us to Re-invent our purpose and re-evaluate where our true
Priorities are. We always will want to be successful and accomplish our dreams, goals, and ambitions. Now we are faced with some real life challenges. We can't really at this point effect the Globe unless of course you are a world leader and in the public forum, so best to tackle your own center of the universe. Why not start out with healthy New Year’s resolutions to improve your outlook, the way you approach business, relationships and everyone around you and don't forget to treat yourself kindly this year. Make time for the basics, reading, and writing and keep track of your progress. Set goals for your life that are attainable and measure your results.
Tips for the Tough job search,
Networking has become my favorite pastime. Networking is your Best chance of creating an exciting opportunity for your new position. Be your own campaign manager for success.
Join as many groups and organizations so that you can meet people. I spend a good amount of time at the library and on the internet reading current publications on
How to start a new business, how to create opportunities for those seeking employment.
Try using some different techniques to get employers to respond to your resume.
After over 10,000 interviews with potential candidates two stand out, one candidate
left his resume and cover letter in a huge envelop at the receptionist desk with my name on it. He followed up with a phone call to make sure that I received his resume. Of course he got an interview. One candidate went so far to send me a box with a shoe in it, and asked if he could get his foot in the door. We did recruit him and hire him on his creative way to get in front of our management team.
Most candidates now days don't send a thank you. Guess they are too busy interviewing to remember social graces but are always welcome when we hear a thank you for your time and consideration from a potential candidate. After all wouldn't you rather hire someone who is appreciative?
The biggest complaint I hear from those seeking a new opportunity is that it is hard work? Months later I receive emails and phone calls seeking my help to help them find employment. I explain to people to research firms that they are interested in working for and than send them your resume and cover letter asking them for an opportunity. Generally, these firms do not advertise opportunities.
The Best is yet to Come!! Turn change into opportunities to seek out new ways to create your success!
