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 ... |

How Having A Blog Can Help You Get A Job by Miriam Salpeter - Nov, 2009 I am so excited to share news from a client who just landed a great job. In and of itself, a client landing a job isn’t extraordinary – that is the point of hiring me to help, after all! What is special about this client is that she was in a transitional search. She was finding that there were not a lot of opportunities in her field, so she needed to make a change. She was looking for jobs doing things she had not done before... |

Learn to Dig Your Well Before You’re Thirsty! by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 If you’ve been reading much on this site or reading virtually any other job search advice, you know that networking is critical to landing a new job.

LinkedIn Invitation Etiquette by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Nov, 2009 Lately I have noticed a flurry of LinkedIn invitation activity. What bothers me is not the amount of invitations being sent or received but how users are going about the invitation process. So I've put together this brief blurb on LinkedIn invitation etiquette.
