Presenting a Consistent Image During Your Job Search by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Jul, 2010 There’s an old adage in communication: “Tell the audience what you’re going to tell them, then tell them, and then tell them what you told them.” In other words, preview, present, and review. The objective of this communication strategy is to make sure your message gets across. While saying something five times may seem redundant to you, you can be sure that it will stick in the mind of your listener. The Preview: Your R... |

Thinking Like a Recruiter by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Jul, 2010 People often ask me why anyone would seek professional help with writing his or her resume. The great part about resume writing is that I often work with educated professionals who have years of great experience. Unfortunately, they just don’t know how to get their resumes in front of people with the power to give them a job. Generally, they’re too busy being a great nurse, project manager, executive, or whatever else to un... |

What To Do About An Employment Gap by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Jul, 2010 Historically, having a significant gap in your professional employment has been seen as a huge negative on a resume. However, given that a May Gallup poll showed that 19% of the American population is underemployed (either not working or working part-time instead of full-time), there are many, many job seekers out there wondering how to handle this resume issue. The good news is that there are ways to present gaps in employm... |

Why I Won't Be Reading Your Cover Letter by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Jul, 2010 We recently had an open position we were trying to fill and I was amazed—or should I say appalled—at the blanket responses we received from job seekers. Potential candidates sent us cover letters describing experience they possessed that was completely irrelevant to our opening; it was the same as someone having a degree in veterinary medicine but seeking employment as an IT director. Did these job seekers really think that ... |

Reflecting on Career Mentoring – 4th of July Raspberry Picking by Julie Walraven - Jul, 2010 Yesterday, I picked raspberries at my father-in-law Bob’s house. The raspberries are early this year. In other years, the raspberries were at their peak during the week of the fair in early August. But spring came early and so did the raspberries. No ordinary raspberry patch Bob has no ordinary raspberry patch with just a few bushes. It feels like a jungle in there. I picked for over an hour, emptying my container severa... |

Four Job Search Frustrations - Fixed by Kevin Donlin - Jun, 2010 I recently reviewed several hundred emails from job seekers across the country. As you might imagine, many things are bugging many job seekers in this economy. But I boiled their frustrations down to four common ones. Here they are, with suggested solutions. Which of them apply to you? Frustration #1: “I submit my resume for a posted job and never hear back from employers. Did they even read my resume?” Solut... |

You Won’t Hire Me Because I’m Unemployed? REALLY? by Harry Urschel - Jun, 2010 CNN.com posted an article titled “In the job hunt, the stigma of being laid off is hard to erase”. In it, Stephanie Chen, writes: “As if securing work in a jobless recovery isn't tricky enough, being labeled unemployed brings additional obstacles.” I was privileged to be interviewed by Stephanie for this article and quoted briefly: “Many companies will consider hiring jobless applicants, said Harry Urschel, an indepen... |

Three Tips To Shore Up For A Career Flood by Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter - Jun, 2010 Ankle-deep in water, we waded across the ramp to our dock. The next day, after a satiating weekend of sailing, we returned to the ramp for departure, and alas, the water had risen to our knees. Granted, we had slept the prior night ‘on the water,’ and then sailed through the day, water skimming our hull and sails pulling us through this liquid highway. As sailors, water clearly is our friend, but it was the unexpected cree... |

How to Learn Everything You Need to Know About Interviewing in One Day by Barbara Safani - Jun, 2010 My daughter landed a plum internship this summer as an assistant to a musical director and casting director for the national tour of a very well known Broadway musical. On her first day she observed a typical theater audition, cattle-call style and in less than eight hours learned what it takes most people decades to learn about interviews. Here were her take-aways. 1. Having strong skills in multiple areas makes you a bett... |

Six Tips To Help You From Being Overwhelmed By Your Job Hunt by Miriam Salpeter - Jun, 2010 "The secret of getting ahead is getting started. The secret of getting started is breaking your complex, overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one.” – Mark Twain, in The Success Principles, by Jack Canfield It seems obvious – you can’t be successful until you get started. Earlier this week, I wrote about how making a plan for your job hunt is a big step in the right direction. You ca... |
