When In An Interview Paint A Picture by William Lemerond - Nov, 2009 In order to captivate someone's imagination and attention, particularly an employer in your case, you must paint picture with your words. When the mind thinks deeply and critically, it thinks in pictures. If you're not creating mental images to get your point across, you're missing out on a lot of potential interest. You're just not hitting the nail on the head, or scoring points. Involve the person interviewing you, by gettin... |

Who Does Your Grandma Know? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 Networking in a job search is critical. Often people don’t do it because they think they have to know hiring managers in their field in order for it to be productive. Not True! It’s not who YOU know. It’s who you know, knows, and who THEY know! Many people may think of their grandmother as a poor job networking contact. However, you may not know who her neighbors are, or who she knows at her church, or seniors club. You ... |

Why Isn't My Resume Working? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 You’ve created the “perfect” resume! In 5 pages it lays out every great thing you’ve done in your career in terrific detail. It’s a work of art! It’s a literary masterpiece and shows ALL the reasons any company should want to hire you! So why aren’t you getting called with job offers? A “masterpiece” is often very different from an effective resume. First, it’s important to understand what happens in the selection proces... |

Your Ideal Resume! by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 Ask 10 “experts” their opinion of your resume and you’ll get 10 different, often contradicting answers. Some will tell you to include and ‘Objective’, others will tell you not to. Some will tell you to use a Functional style, others may tell you that it always has to be a Chronological style. Some will tell you to write your job responsibilities in detail, others will tell you to write only in short bullet points. Some wi... |

Are You “Professional”? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 What makes someone “Professional”? I’ve read interesting takes on that question lately. Some good points, and some...not so much. What defines professionalism? Based on various pieces I’ve read, it’s certainly subjective. Whatever the definition anyone uses, it’s often THE factor that tips the scale from one candidate to another in the hiring process. In trying to define it, the dictionary doesn’t seem to be much help. ... |

Branding Versus Branded by Karen Burns - Nov, 2009 There’s nothing so annoying as a buzz word and this year there’s no word out there buzzier than “branding”. As in, “You’ve got to establish your brand.” Ugh. WG keeps thinking of what Alina Tugend said in this NYT piece a while back: “What if I don’t want to be a brand? What if I like the security and camaraderie of being ‘just’ a worker in a company?” Working Girl suspects there’re a lot of people out there who wou... |

Career Happiness: Expect It or Aspire To It by Todd Rhoad - Nov, 2009 Too often we confuse our expectations with our aspirations. You may know it as expecting too much. Career dissatisfaction results from a misalignment of these two factors. To stay on track, you need to only understand the difference and ask a few questions. In this article, I’ll tell you what they are. I recently asked MBA grads to tell me how the degree has met their expectations. I wanted to know specifically what they so... |

Coach Your Own Career by Deborah Brown-Volkman - Nov, 2009 When we struggle in our career, we usually look outward. Maybe there is a book, TV show, or colleague who can tell us what to do. The truth is the answers you seek come from within. You can tap into outside sources for information or validation, but the true next steps usually come from you. It takes courage to have a career you are passionate about; a career you enjoy that makes a difference in the world. Seem like a lonel... |

Cover or Uncovered??? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 I’m often asked how important a cover letter is when submitting a resume for a position, or if one is even necessary at all. My answer is: “It depends.” Who is receiving your resume? If it’s being sent to a recruiter, or you are applying to an online system, you can be virtually guaranteed that a cover letter would not be even looked at, much less read. The volume of resumes that go through a normal recruiting process makes... |
