Frankly, it feels as if the discipline of job search has taken a turn for the worse.\r\n\r\nIt’s a new job search era, candidates. Not only are hiring managers using technology to screen, but there are fewer jobs and more applicants. The competition is fierce, hiring managers are feeling more pressure to hire the best, and those who are hunting to WIN a job <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">are</span> landing quicker.\r\n\r\nAfter 30+ years in sales and marketing positions in Fortune 500’s, I’ve interviewed, hired and coached thousands during their job search. Some common “crap” prevents a candidate’s success.\r\n\r\n<strong>4<sup>th</sup> Top Reason</strong><b> You Are <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not</span> Employed Right Now: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Unwilling to describe and be passionate about what job you want</span></b>\r\n\r\n<b>3rd Top Reason You are Not Employed Right Now: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not Making the Time Commitment</span> </b>\r\n\r\n<b>2nd Top Reason You are Not Employed Right Now: \"<em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Silver Platter Syndrome\"</span></em></b>\r\n\r\nYes, you are talented, you have solid experiences, you deliver great results, and you’ll be a great hire for some lucky hiring manager. Having said all that, the good ole days of someone contacting you to apply for a position are over. (<i>Now, I believe those days will come back in a very different way. In the future, companies won’t even post a position; they will recruit from LinkedIn and use search engine key words. But that’s for another blog.)</i>\r\n\r\nToday, candidates, you need to go aggressively after posted positions. And you need to go after multiple jobs at one time vs. one at a time. Build a pipeline of at least 10 job opportunities and hunt to win!  Write a powerful, customized cover letter that spells out why you are the best candidate for their position. It’s all about them! You are the product and you need to appeal to them; not the other way around. Check your ego at the door and pivot your background around the job description and company’s needs.\r\n\r\nFinally, another symptom of the <em>Silver Platter Syndrome</em> is your coolness barometer. If you are judging jobs, industries, hiring managers or companies based on how “cool” they are, then you have just limited your available job market for all the wrong reasons.  I worked in office supplies, container shipping and other industries, but got amazing experiences under world class leaders.\r\n\r\n<b>1st Top Reason You are Not Employed Right Now: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not meeting Maslow’s hierarchy of hiring managers’ needs.</span></b>\r\n\r\nThe needs are really quite simple, yet most candidate’s mistakes in the below categories are glaringly enormous.\r\n<table width=\"659\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\"><b> </b></p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\">\r\n<p align=\"center\"><b>Hiring Managers’ Needs</b></p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">\r\n<p align=\"center\"><b>Why is this Important?</b></p>\r\n</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\">1.</p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\">Candidates need to <b>write</b> with excellent grammar and no spelling errors.</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">On the job, you will be expected to write, so your communications are a sample.</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\">2.</p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\">Formal, proper <b>communications.\r\n</b>Written, verbal, presentation, non-verbal.</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">On the job, you will be conversing and writing with senior executives, customers, vendors.</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\">3.</p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\"><b>Passion</b> and energy for their job opportunity.</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">Hiring managers want to hire eager, positive people, who are passionate about their space.

Spinning your wheels looking for your next career move, or waking up each morning wondering what to do next? Most job seekers are doing the same thing since this is not a process that is taught in school, there is nothing natural about it, and there is no one clear way to enter the job search tornado.\r\n\r\nWell, now there is a better mousetrap. It’s called the <b>Cut the Crap (CTC) Job Search Process</b> and it has three phases:\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">1:  Attitude &amp; Goal-Setting</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">2:  Preparation</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">3:  Applying &amp; Interviewing</p>\r\nReady, aim, fire.\r\n\r\n<p>Everybody needs to be on a program. Little babies need a schedule to eat and sleep, our classrooms are structure all the way through college and graduate school, and employment has set hours, meetings and requirements. Even the best freelancers or self-employed put specific activities in their calendar to assure they are building their business. Then why is it that your job search project is random? <b>You</b> need a schedule, lists of things to do, a framework to work within <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">and</span> a way to know when you are wasting time on activities that are not going to result in anything.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>The <b>first benefit of a new job search program</b> to you, the job seeker, is that you get in control and that you have a path forward for your journey, no matter how short or long your journey will be.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>The second benefit</b> of following a process is that you will retain great information that will benefit you well beyond landing your next position. You will develop network contacts, information about companies, and valuable research that you will want to revisit at a later time. Because my process requires documenting your every move, you will automatically develop a contact list to not only thank after you are employed, but to stay in touch with for long term personal and professional success.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Benefit #3:</b> Eliminate wasted time. After 30 years as a hiring manager in Fortune 500 companies, I see more “<em>R.A.A</em>.” or Random Acts of Applications. Candidates are applying to jobs they have no experience in yet they are missing open positions that are right in their sweet spot. Other job seekers are wasting time and money trying to change their resume to make it perfect for each job posting. Why?</p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Benefit #4:</b> You will be able to juggle more than 10 job opportunities at a time. Today, job-seekers are dropping  follow-up balls, fumbling with yellow sticky notes, and appearing unprepared, missing commitments, and feeling out of control.</p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Enable your PC to Organize the Details. </b>There are many good books and blogs about job search tips. What you need is an end-to-end program and the tools to begin execution today. You should be using your PC to track your daily job search activities, who you meet, when you talked or e-mailed someone, and then have your calendar remind you to follow up. Sounds crazy? Those who do this appear more professional, stand out from other candidates, and win the jobs from the competition…faster.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>If you’re next question is <em>“HOW?” </em>then go to <a href=\"http://danamanciagli.com/\">http://danamanciagli.com</a> and get <b><i>“Cut the Crap, Get a Job!

The calculators moved to Excel, typewriters to WORD, mailed résumés and cover letters are now submitted through online tools, and the game has changing massively in the past two years! You need to get current and stay current since the hiring practices will change even more rapidly in the next 5 years. Amazingly, there are so many online articles and tools to help you that it may be overwhelming. But how many hours have you invested in yourself by reading some?

I recently coached Robert, a job seeker, and asked him if his profile was at 100%, which he promptly replied “yes”. And it was by LinkedIn’s measurement but it was terrible!

On most LinkedIn profiles, I learn about their prior job description or see industry acronyms, but don’t get an at-a-glance understanding of their skills they can bring to me, a hiring manager!\r\n\r\n<b>Rule #1</b>: If you’re not on LinkedIn, you don’t exist to recruiters and hiring managers. And when I say “recruiter”, many companies have in-house recruiters who do the primary searches and screens of candidates. They are fluent in LinkedIn.\r\n\r\n<b>Rule #2:</b> If your LinkedIn profile is poor or inaccurate OR embellishes the truth, you could be knocked out of the running.\r\n\r\nThere is so much more you need to learn as job seekers and it’s all at your fingertips (and quite fun, too!).  I have been working for Fortune 500’s for 30+ years and have had to work hard to keep up with the current and important job search approaches.  As a result, I have invented some new, proprietary best practices and tools.

Don’t get me wrong. I was one of the most ambitious, career-minded MBAs…and that ambition helped me throughout my 30 year career. But I made mistakes, too.\n\n<p>There are good ways to show your skills, pride, strengths, confidence and fit for a new position either within your current company or outside.  And there are really bad ways. The best way to check yourself is to prepare a short term career plan, script the answer to “tell me about yourself” and write down your interview answers RIGHT NOW.  Yes, before you even apply to a job. You will be able to hear how you sound when you see it in words. Plus, rehearse with supporters such as friends, parents, career counselors, etc.  If John had written out his plan, he would see and hear how words such as “after I graduate” or “demand” sound.\n\n<p><b>What is magical about the day after you receive your diploma on graduation day</b>?  Did you transform into this super-human brainiac? NO! You are the same John who has shown good work ethic, smarts, follow-through and more while you have been working for your company. Will you be able to go out with your freshly-minted MBA and get a better job that pays 10-20% more, gives you management responsibility and “leverages” your new education?  Probably not.\n\n<p>So here is your checklist for early preparation.

As a professional speaker, she will engage, educate, and entertain your audience.\r\n<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td>\r\n<div>\r\n<h3 align=\"center\"><strong><em>\"Dana was energetic, passionate, direct and fun!\"</em></strong></h3>\r\n</div></td>\r\n</tr>\r\n</tbody>\r\n</table>\r\n<strong>Dana has two presentations ready to help job seekers <em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">and</span></em> career seekers:</strong>\r\n<ul>\r\n<h2><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Cut the Crap, Get a Job!</span> </strong>A New Job Search Process for a New Era</h2>\r\nOnly the best candidate wins the job. Yes, it is a competition.  Hiring managers want to hire someone who has the skills they need and someone who is going to be successful.  However, the way job-seekers are hunting for jobs is working against them.  There are two types of “crap” in the job search today:  One: the excuses job-seekers make for themselves that hold them back.  Two: if they get past the first barrier, they’re making errors that sabotage any chance they had.\r\n\r\nThis presentation, which can also be delivered as a hands-on workshop, will not only teach job-seekers and career coaches how to win against both barriers, but it will give them new, innovative ways to stand out and win the job they want.\r\n\r\nWarning:  this is not for the thin-skinned or the one who wants the easy way out.  My job process calls for discipline, attention-to-detail and incredible organization. I show samples and engage with the audience to assure they understand the do’s, don’ts, tricks and traps.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Program Take-Aways:</strong></p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Discover the high bar required to pass every step of the job search process, including setting a goal, preparing, networking and applying.</li>\r\n	<li>Learn how a three-step process and tools will change your game and odds.</li>\r\n	<li>Practice what you learned and leave ready to win the job you want and need.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Cut the Crap, Network for Success! </strong></span>A New Networking Process for Today’s Era</h2>\r\nThe old techniques of “schmoozing,” asking contacts if they’ve <em>heard of any jobs lately</em>, or asking someone you don’t know if they’ll meet with you are GONE.  And new social media techniques, which I’m a fan of, have further enabled an even sloppier, lazier approach.  Plus, there are two types of “crap” in the networking process today:  the first is the excuses networkers make for themselves and second, the errors that sabotage their chances of developing high quality, two-way relationships.\r\n\r\nThis presentation (or hands-on workshop) will not only teach college students and professionals how to win against both types of “crap,” but it will give them new, innovative ways to stand out develop important connections for life and career success.\r\n\r\nWarning:  this is not for the thin-skinned or the one who wants the easy way out.  My networking process calls for discipline, attention-to-detail and incredible organization.   I show samples and engage with the audience to assure they understand the do’s, don’ts, tricks and traps.\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><strong>Program Take-Aways:</strong></p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>Discover the high bar required to engage in a professional manner, follow through, and track your contacts for the long term.</li>\r\n	<li>Learn how a three-step process and tools will change your networking approach.</li>\r\n	<li>Practice what you learned and leave ready to network more effectively and in a higher-quality way.   Be better.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<iframe src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/MwiOZKSra8s\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\" frameborder=\"0\"></iframe>\r\n<strong></strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Recent presentations:</strong>\r\n\r\nFebruary 1, 2013, University of Washington MBA, 100 MBA students\r\n<ul>\r\n\r\nNovember 14, 2012,  <a href=\"https://secure.www.alumniconnections.com/olc/pub/CTY/event/showEventForm.jsp?form_id=137793\">City University</a> Career Seminar, 100 students and alumni\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\r\nOctober 25, 2012,  WTIA <a href=\"http://www.cvent.com/events/2012-tech-job-fair/event-summary-5c04383daa4248038c459a06f8935f9d.aspx\">Tech Job Fair</a>, 550 Job Seekers\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Upcoming presentations:</strong>\r\n\r\nMarch 5, 2013, <a title=\"City University Job Search Workshop\" href=\"http://bit.ly/CityUCareerGetAJob2\" target=\"_blank\">City University Job Search Workshop</a>,  100+ students\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nJune 22, 2013, Creative Freelancer Conference, 500 Freelancers - Network for Success\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2></h2>','Speaking','','inherit','open','open','','11-revision-v1','','','2013-03-01 02:45:19','2013-03-01 02:45:19','',11,'http://www.danamanciagli.com/set-your-goal/11-revision-34/',0,'revision','',0),(1071,1,'2013-03-03 02:42:36','2013-03-03 02:42:36','<h3>[dividers style=\"2\"]</h3>\r\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Where to <a href=\"#Find Jobs\"><span style=\"color: #000000;

Frankly, it feels as if the discipline of job search has taken a turn for the worse.\r\n\r\nIt’s a new job search era, candidates. Not only are hiring managers using technology to screen, but there are fewer jobs and more applicants. The competition is fierce, hiring managers are feeling more pressure to hire the best, and those who are hunting to WIN a job <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">are</span> landing quicker.\r\n\r\nAfter 30+ years in sales and marketing positions in Fortune 500’s, I’ve interviewed, hired and coached thousands during their job search. Some common “crap” prevents a candidate’s success. Crap comes in two forms: mistakes and excuses and it\'s everywhere.\r\n\r\n<b>4<sup>th</sup> Top Reason You Are <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not</span> Employed Right Now: </b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Unwilling to describe and be passionate about what job you want.</b></span>\r\n\r\nYou’re not unable, but you are unwilling to pinpoint the type of position you are hunting for. What job do you want, candidates?\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li>What function (inside sales, outside sales, what kind of marketing, what kind of finance)</li>\r\n	<li>What industries and why</li>\r\n	<li>What city (and don’t say anywhere!)</li>\r\n	<li>What level, based on your experience and their job description</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nHere are some of the crap answers we hear to the most common question of “What Are You Looking For? Or, translation, “What are you passionate about doing?”:<i>  “I can do so many things, it’s hard to pick just one,” “I have a dual MBA emphasis in finance and marketing.” “What do you have and I’ll tell you if I’m interested.” “I want to be a general manager,” “I want to leverage my skills in collaboration and find a challenging role that lets me tackle challenging problems.” </i>Or my favorite:<i> “I’d like to create a position for a company, based on my unique skills.”</i>\r\n\r\nCandidates, figure out what you want to do based on posted job descriptions, have a goal, write it out and share your next job goal with your network. Not your 10 year plan or your vision for greatness. Just the next step job goal. Also, a talented ex-Microsoft executive also asked candidates to share WHY you are passionate about that goal. Have a response to “why this industry, why this function, why this company?” when you are interviewing.\r\n\r\n<b>3rd Top Reason You are Not Employed Right Now: </b><b><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not Making the Time Commitment</span> </b>\r\n\r\nCut the crappy excuse of <em>“I don’t have time</em>.” Then your job search must not be that important to you, right? I’ve been there. A full-time-job, two kids under 3, want to get those work-outs in, errands to run, AND a job search. It takes so much time to research the companies, find the right connections who can help, write tailored cover letters, and track my applications so I follow up. Not to mention have meetings with people, make phone calls, then interview.\r\n\r\nCandidates, you use your calendar for your meetings, your parties, and you certainly used it in college to track your mid-term and final due dates. Why, then, for your job search, you’re using yellow sticky notes and squishing some search activities in during your free time? Make yourself job #1 and prioritize the work it takes to win a job.\r\n\r\nCome back to <a href=\"http://danamanciagli.com/\">http://DanaManciagli.com</a> for the TOP TWO <b><i>Most Ridiculously Obvious Reasons You Are Not Employed Right Now.</i></b>','The 4 Most Ridiculously Obvious Reasons You Are Not Employed Right Now - Part I of 2','','inherit','open','open','','810-revision-7','','','2013-02-04 20:08:23','2013-02-04 20:08:23','',810,'http://www.danamanciagli.com/set-your-goal/810-revision-7/',0,'revision','',0),(1094,1,'2013-03-05 18:22:33','2013-03-05 18:22:33','<h3>\"Cut the Crap, Get a Job\" Media Inquiry?  Want to quickly get assistance with an article or story?</h3>\r\n<h3>Simply contact us immediately at <a href=\"mailto:Dana@DanaManciagli.com\">Dana@DanaManciagli.com</a></h3>\r\nDana Manciagli was featured in the following Forbes article: <img alt=\"\" src=\"http://ts3.mm.bing.net/th?id=H.4893467599374050&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=239&amp;h=155&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" width=\"164\" height=\"85\" />\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.forbes.com/sites/work-in-progress/2013/02/19/6-tips-for-women-starting-a-career-in-a-male-dominated-field/\">http://www.forbes.com/sites/work-in-progress/2013/02/19/6-tips-for-women-starting-a-career-in-a-male-dominated-field/</a>\r\n</a>\r\n\r\nDana Manciagli was the sole content provider for a prominent women\'s blog called Mom365:\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.mom365.com/Pregnancy/Posts/2013/Mar/5-Ways-to-Find-Part-time-Work.aspx\">http://www.mom365.com/Pregnancy/Posts/2013/Mar/5-Ways-to-Find-Part-time-Work.aspx</a>\r\n</a>\r\n\r\nDana Manciagli was featured in a prominent social media driven online feature magazine:\r\n\r\n<a title=\"Dana Manciagli on Jenningswire\" href=\"http://anniejenningspr.com/jenningswire/career/what-job-interview-questions-keep-you-up-at-night/\" target=\"_blank\">http://anniejenningspr.com/jenningswire/career/what-job-interview-questions-keep-you-up-at-night/</a>\r\n<h3>Click below to view our newsletter archives:</h3>\r\n<a href=\"http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs162/1111368946227/archive/1112350180592.html\" target=\"_blank\">February 3, 2013</a>\r\n</a>\r\n<a href=\"http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs162/1111368946227/archive/1112136191226.html\" target=\"_blank\">January 14, 2013</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs162/1111368946227/archive/1111809949299.html\" target=\"_blank\">December 8, 2012</a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Media','','inherit','open','open','','15-revision-v1','','','2013-03-05 18:22:33','2013-03-05 18:22:33','',15,'http://www.danamanciagli.com/set-your-goal/15-revision-26/',0,'revision','',0),(1095,1,'2013-03-11 15:44:58','2013-03-11 15:44:58','<h3>\"Cut the Crap, Get a Job\" Media Inquiry?  Want to quickly get assistance with an article or story?</h3>\r\n<h3>Simply contact us immediately at <a href=\"mailto:Dana@DanaManciagli.com\">Dana@DanaManciagli.com</a></h3>\r\nDana Manciagli was featured in the following Forbes article: <img alt=\"\" src=\"http://ts3.mm.bing.net/th?id=H.4893467599374050&amp;pid=1.7&amp;w=239&amp;h=155&amp;c=7&amp;rs=1\" width=\"164\" height=\"85\" />\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.forbes.com/sites/work-in-progress/2013/02/19/6-tips-for-women-starting-a-career-in-a-male-dominated-field/\">http://www.forbes.com/sites/work-in-progress/2013/02/19/6-tips-for-women-starting-a-career-in-a-male-dominated-field/</a>\r\n</a>\r\n\r\nDana Manciagli was the sole content provider for a prominent women\'s blog called Mom365:\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.mom365.com/Pregnancy/Posts/2013/Mar/5-Ways-to-Find-Part-time-Work.aspx\">http://www.mom365.com/Pregnancy/Posts/2013/Mar/5-Ways-to-Find-Part-time-Work.aspx</a>\r\n</a>\r\n\r\nDana Manciagli was featured in a prominent social media driven online feature magazine:\r\n\r\n<a title=\"Dana Manciagli on Jenningswire\" href=\"http://anniejenningspr.com/jenningswire/career/what-job-interview-questions-keep-you-up-at-night/\" target=\"_blank\">http://anniejenningspr.com/jenningswire/career/what-job-interview-questions-keep-you-up-at-night/</a>\r\n<h3>Click below to view our newsletter archives:</h3>\r\n<p><a href=\"http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs162/1111368946227/archive/1112350180592.html\" target=\"_blank\">February 3, 2013</a></p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs162/1111368946227/archive/1112136191226.html\" target=\"_blank\">January 14, 2013</a></p>\r\n\r\n<p><a href=\"http://archive.constantcontact.com/fs162/1111368946227/archive/1111809949299.html\" target=\"_blank\">December 8, 2012</a></p>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','Media','','inherit','open','open','','15-revision-v1','','','2013-03-11 15:44:58','2013-03-11 15:44:58','',15,'http://www.danamanciagli.com/set-your-goal/15-revision-27/',0,'revision','',0),(1718,1,'2013-04-13 22:33:04','2013-04-13 22:33:04','<p>Hello friends, family and associates,<b> </b></p>\r\n<p>I have good news!

Frankly, it feels as if the discipline of job search has taken a turn for the worse.\r\n\r\nIt’s a new job search era, candidates. Not only are hiring managers using technology to screen, but there are fewer jobs and more applicants. The competition is fierce, hiring managers are feeling more pressure to hire the best, and those who are hunting to WIN a job <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">are</span> landing quicker.\r\n\r\nAfter 30+ years in sales and marketing positions in Fortune 500’s, I’ve interviewed, hired and coached thousands during their job search. Some common “crap” prevents a candidate’s success.\r\n\r\n<strong>4<sup>th</sup> Top Reason</strong><b> You Are <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not</span> Employed Right Now: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Unwilling to describe and be passionate about what job you want</span></b>\r\n\r\n<b>3rd Top Reason You are Not Employed Right Now: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not Making the Time Commitment</span> </b>\r\n\r\n<b>2nd Top Reason You are Not Employed Right Now: \"<em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Silver Platter Syndrome\"</span></em></b>\r\n\r\nYes, you are talented, you have solid experiences, you deliver great results, and you’ll be a great hire for some lucky hiring manager. Having said all that, the good ole days of someone contacting you to apply for a position are over. (<i>Now, I believe those days will come back in a very different way. In the future, companies won’t even post a position; they will recruit from LinkedIn and use search engine key words. But that’s for another blog.)</i>\r\n\r\nToday, candidates, you need to go aggressively after posted positions. And you need to go after multiple jobs at one time vs. one at a time. Build a pipeline of at least 10 job opportunities and hunt to win!  Write a powerful, customized cover letter that spells out why you are the best candidate for their position. It’s all about them! You are the product and you need to appeal to them; not the other way around. Check your ego at the door and pivot your background around the job description and company’s needs.\r\n\r\nFinally, another symptom of the <em>Silver Platter Syndrome</em> is your coolness barometer. If you are judging jobs, industries, hiring managers or companies based on how “cool” they are, then you have just limited your available job market for all the wrong reasons.  I worked in office supplies, container shipping and other industries, but got amazing experiences under world class leaders.\r\n\r\n<b>1st Top Reason You are Not Employed Right Now: <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Not meeting Maslow’s hierarchy of hiring managers’ needs.</span></b>\r\n\r\nThe needs are really quite simple, yet most candidate’s mistakes in the below categories are glaringly enormous.\r\n<table width=\"659\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\"><b> </b></p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\">\r\n<p align=\"center\"><b>Hiring Managers’ Needs</b></p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">\r\n<p align=\"center\"><b>Why is this Important?</b></p>\r\n</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\">1.</p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\">Candidates need to <b>write</b> with excellent grammar and no spelling errors.</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">On the job, you will be expected to write, so your communications are a sample.</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\">2.</p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\">Formal, proper <b>communications.\r\n</b>Written, verbal, presentation, non-verbal.</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">On the job, you will be conversing and writing with senior executives, customers, vendors.</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"29\">\r\n<p align=\"center\">3.</p>\r\n</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"241\"><b>Passion</b> and energy for their job opportunity.</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\" width=\"389\">Hiring managers want to hire eager, positive people, who are passionate about their space.

Job-seeking dinosaurs. And you come in all generations, genders and cultures. Now, I’m sure none of you reading this are dinosaurs but if any of your friends say the following phrases, then break the news to them gently:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>“If you hear of a job that I’d be a fit for, then call me.”</li>\n<li>“Let’s do coffee sometime. I’m looking for a new gig.”</li>\n<li>“What do you think I should do next?”</li>\n<li>“I’m looking for a challenging position that leverages my skills in…”</li>\n<li>“I don’t know anybody, so can you introduce me to your network?”</li>\n<li>“I’ll send you my résumé. Will you look at it and recommend jobs you might know of?”</li>\n<li>“After I get my MBA, I’m going to go get a bigger job.”</li>\n<li>“There aren’t any good jobs posted. I’ll know it when I see it.”</li>\n<li>“I’ve applied three times to &lt;company&gt; and they never get back to me. How inconsiderate.”</li>\n<li>“I don’t get that social media stuff for job searching. It’s a waste of time so I’ll just focus on strong face-to-face connecting.”</li>\n<li>“I’ll reconnect with some headhunters I used to know.”</li>\n</ul>\n<p><b>Welcome to the new era of job search.</b> Regardless if you are looking within your current company or in other companies, today’s competitive field for executive positions requires new techniques. The calculators moved to Excel, typewriters to WORD, mailed résumés and cover letters are now submitted through online tools, and the game has changing massively in the past two years! You need to get current and stay current since the hiring practices will change even more rapidly in the next 5 years. Amazingly, there are so many online articles and tools to help you that it may be overwhelming. But how many hours have you invested in yourself by reading some? Basic reading should be the LinkedIn tutorials and multiple résumé websites who can help get your résumé up to date. But go beyond and re-tool yourself now. From your attitude to your preparation and all the way through applying and interviewing.</p>\n<p>While my upcoming book <b>“Cut the Crap, Get a Job! A New Job Search Process for a New Era”</b> will coach you through every step, here is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">one immediate action</span> for you:</p>\n<p>Build a high quality, 100% complete LinkedIn profile. I recently coached Robert, a job seeker, and asked him if his profile was at 100%, which he promptly replied “yes”. And it was by LinkedIn’s measurement but it was terrible! It had a goofy picture, his full résumé was not detailed within each section, no powerful introduction, and only one endorsement. On most LinkedIn profiles, I learn about their prior job description or see industry acronyms, but don’t get an at-a-glance understanding of their skills they can bring to me, a hiring manager!</p>\n<p><b>Rule #1</b>: If you’re not on LinkedIn, you don’t exist to recruiters and hiring managers. And when I say “recruiter”, many companies have in-house recruiters who do the primary searches and screens of candidates. They are fluent in LinkedIn.</p>\n<p><b>Rule #2:</b> If your LinkedIn profile is poor or inaccurate OR embellishes the truth, you could be knocked out of the running.</p>\n<p>There is so much more you need to learn as job seekers and it’s all at your fingertips (and quite fun, too!).  I have been working for Fortune 500’s for 30+ years and have had to work hard to keep up with the current and important job search approaches.  As a result, I have invented some new, proprietary best practices and tools. Invest in yourself!  Hire a coach, read, mirror great examples that are free on the web (résumés and cover letters) and much more. Best of luck!</p>','Executive Job Seekers – Are you a Dinosaur?','','inherit','open','open','','868-autosave','','','2013-08-02 00:05:34','2013-08-02 00:05:34','',868,'http://www.danamanciagli.com/set-your-goal/868-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(1717,1,'2013-04-13 22:32:14','2013-04-13 22:32:14','<p>Hello friends, family and associates,<b> </b></p>\r\n<p>I have good news!

You’re stuck. You don’t know what you want to do next and it’s blocking you from finding a job.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Well, you know what? There are ways to figure it out. Time to get over that hurdle and move into job search mode. Get out of “goal-land” and into the active pursuit of your next career chapter.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Some motivating principles for you:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li><strong>It’s not a life sentence. </strong>Your next move is not a life sentence. You can try something new and if you don’t like that, you can re-group later. Oh, and don’t focus on 5-year goals or what you want to do in 10 years. Just think about what you like and don’t like for your next gig.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You’ll never be sure. </strong>You’ll never be 100% sure it’s the right move until you’ve been in your next role for at least two years. And give it that much time. Year one is just learning. Year two is when you can really make an impact and gauge if you are satisfied.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You’re not alone.</strong> There are many people in the same boat you are. However, will you be the one who picks something and gets off the boat? Or the one who sits in the boat, using the same old, “I don’t know what I want,” excuse for not looking for a job?</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You’ve got choices. </strong>Look at the process of picking your next career move as if it were a shopping experience. You get to “window shop” at multiple opportunities, and then pick a few career targets for your next experience to “try on.”</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You CAN take two. </strong>It’s okay to have two job search goals. I don’t recommend more than that. One of my clients today, Michael, is aiming at two quite different career changes. One, an information technology (IT) applications specialist and, two, a customer-facing consultant. They are very discreet and we are separating his search efforts by these two goals. He is applying to positions in both and we’ll see where he lands soon.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Have a Plan B.</strong>Imagine a dartboard. Draw one. First, define the position that is smack in the middle, the bull’s eye. Now have a career goal that is in the second circle, as well. Call them Plan A and Plan B.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>You have many choices to accelerate your career move decisions. After all, the sooner you resolve what you want to do next, the sooner you can search more effectively and begin working at your new position, right?</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li><strong>Books </strong>such as my own <em>Cut the Crap, Get a Job!</em> and many others are designed to share insights to help you assess your goal and then reach that goal via a more effective job search process.</li>\r\n	<li>Read many <strong>job descriptions.</strong> Hundreds. It’s simple and fun, so block some chunks of time. Try this exercise on picking your goal:Go to any of the big job boards such as Monster.com, Indeed.com, Glassdoor.com. Don’t be selective about city location or industry or company. Focus on function (roles, responsibilities) to figure out what you would enjoy doing eight-to-five.Make a “Yes” pile and a “No” pile - no “maybe” pile - based on the descriptions and key words you read and envision yourself in each job. If you enjoy helping customers, then look at sales and customer service roles. You will find many different titles and roles within each function. For example, within sales, you will see inside sales, outside sales, sales operations, etc. Learn about them and identify the titles and job descriptions you will apply for in the future.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Coaches.</strong> While we coaches are an investment, we can accelerate the time to complete your goal-determination process. I quickly guide my clients through the steps to define their goals; then we head immediately into job search mode.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>How do you know when you are there? You’re on track when you can fill in the following blanks:</p>\r\n\r\n<p>I am looking for a position in the [fill in blank] or in [fill in blank]  .</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Example: <em>I am looking for a customer service job in the banking or consumer goods industries in Minneapolis, Minnesota. </em></p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kudos to you for recognizing you need to resolve your goal barrier. Now you can start searching with a lot more confidence, conviction, and energy!</p>','Lost in Your Career?

She was one of five selected to interview out of 52 applicants. Anne had the skills and qualifications on paper and presented herself well face-to-face in the first three minutes. Richard was positively predisposed.</p>\r\n<p>After the social warm-up, the first question he asked her was, <i>“Please describe the job that we are interviewing for today so I can clarify any areas.”</i></p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Anne did:</span> Stumbled. She could not articulate the primary roles and responsibilities. She made up information on the fly and did not even have a copy of Richard’s job description with her.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Anne could have done:</span> Pulled out the printed job description from her neatly organized research, placed it on the table, and summarized the 3 key points that she had written on the document or in separate notes. This would demonstrate she had studied it and extracted some key insights.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Richard expected:</span> A high level overview that demonstrated that Anne understood what he wanted. Richard would have been fine with Anne saying that she had some questions but that this was her best understanding at that time (humility is good). Richard would have also been fine with notes in front of Anne. It would have demonstrated that she took time to prepare.</p>\r\n<p>The second question Richard asked Anne was: <i>“What do you know about my company and my team, division, or organization?</i>”</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Anne did:</span> Stumbled again. She could not describe the industry, what Richard’s company sold to what type of customer (service or product), how they were different from their competition, or the various divisions that comprised the company. More importantly, she was unable to talk about Richard’s division within the company, even though that information was widely available on the web.</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Anne could have done:</span> Anne should have gone to Richard’s website, read their <b><i>About</i></b> section, and much more. She could have printed key pages to bring in with her to show she did her research. She could have written out a brief bullet-point list of her description based on her research. She could also end her well-done summary with, “I have a question about your division when you have time.”</p>\r\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">What Richard expected:</span> A decent summary, showing she researched his business. He was looking for not only an understanding but some display of passion, energy, or excitement about what they do. Richard wanted to hire someone who would enjoy the space his company is in. He was also inspecting her ability to synthesize a large amount of data into a summary. Again, Richard would have been fine if Anne brought her preparation notes in with her.</p>\r\n<p>Within the first 10 minutes, it was clear Anne had not done any research on Richard’s business, industry, or customers that the role supported. You can guess the result. Anne did not get hired.</p>\r\n<p>Get a copy of my book, <b><i>Cut the Crap, Get a Job!</i></b> here <a href=\"http://www.danamanciagli.com/book/\">http://www.danamanciagli.com/book/</a> and avoid situations that are guaranteed to sabotage your odds of getting a job in today’s highly competitive job market.</p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;</p>','Got a Job Interview?

Then, I might look at titles to gauge level of experience.  At this point, I will delete, toss, or put in a “maybe” pile.</p>\r\n<p>I don’t read objectives since they are one of two things:  Written exactly for my position, so I know they are being tailored for each application, or, two, so general and squishy, this person has no focus.  An example of #2: “Proven executive searching for an exciting position that leverages my strengths with people, technology and process.”   Huh?</p>\r\n<p>What I do like at the top of the resume is an Executive Summary.  A set of 10-12 skill sets that describe you, in two columns of short bullets.  Net out the “so what” from your years of experience.  LinkedIn is a great resource for identifying those skill words, assuming you have a 100% complete profile, which you need. Example, my bullet points might say:  Global Sales Leader, Marketing Strategist, Strategic Planner, Team Builder, Channel Chief, Cross-Team Leader, etc.</p>\r\n<p>There are many great resume-writing resources on the web…use them.  Make it clean, easy-to-read, and error free.</p>\r\n<p>Since there is no one right way to format a resume and I find ALL resumes a hard way to find my candidates, I recommend the following:</p>\r\n<ol>\r\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Always do a cover letter</span>.  Even if the hiring manager doesn’t read them, for those hiring managers that do, or IF all of the other candidates have one, you need one. DON’T regurgitate your resume in your cover letter.   Study the job description and tell me, the reader, three reasons why you are the best candidate for my position.</li>\r\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Make the 1-page cover letter the top page in your word or PDF file</span> with your resume starting on page 2.  This saves me from having to open multiple files in your attachment.  Many sites only allow for one document, too.</li>\r\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Use the same technique when sending a resume to a network executive.</span>   “Dear ____, thank you for offering to give me some advice as part of my job search.  Attached is…</li>\r\n</ol>\r\n<p>Candidates, always put yourself in the hiring manager’s shoes and raise the quality bar.  Cut the Crap, Get a Job!  Best of luck!</p>\r\n','Whoever Invented Resumes Ought to be Shot','','inherit','open','open','','255-autosave','','','2013-04-11 18:40:32','2013-04-11 18:40:32','',255,'http://www.danamanciagli.com/set-your-goal/255-autosave/',0,'revision','',0),(1704,1,'2013-04-11 16:47:30','2013-04-11 16:47:30','<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\"> </td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\"><b>Main Category</b></td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\"><b>Sub-Categories</b></td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\"><b>Resources</b></td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td rowspan=\"10\" valign=\"top\"> </td>\r\n<td rowspan=\"10\" valign=\"top\"><b>Find Job Opportunities </b></td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\">General Job Search Engines</td>\r\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\"><a href=\"http://www.monster.com/\">http://www.monster.com/</a>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.indeed.com/\">http://www.indeed.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.simplyhired.com/\">http://www.simplyhired.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.careerbuilder.com/\">http://www.careerbuilder.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.linkup.com/\">http://www.linkup.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https://www.usajobs.gov/\">https://www.usajobs.gov/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.careeronestop.org/\">http://www.careeronestop.org/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://jobs.aol.com/\">http://jobs.aol.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.social-hire.com/search-jobs\">http://www.social-hire.com/search-jobs</a></p>\r\n</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\">Local Job Engines</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\">\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.craigslist.org\">www.craigslist.org</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><cite></cite><a href=\"http://geebo.com/\">http://geebo.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.jobdig.com/\">http://www.jobdig.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.jobing.com/\">http://www.jobing.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://www.snagajob.com/\">http://www.snagajob.com/</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">And your Local Newspaper Classifieds Online</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">And your local Business Journal online or subscription publication</p>\r\n</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\">Networking Sites</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\">\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://LinkedIn.com\">http://LinkedIn.com</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://Facebook.com\">http://Facebook.com</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://GlassDoor.com\">http://GlassDoor.com</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://Twitter.com\">http://Twitter.com</a></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://Viadeo.com\">http://Viadeo.com</a> (Europe, Latin America)</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"http://BranchOut.com\">http://BranchOut.com</a></p>\r\n</td>\r\n</tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td valign=\"top\">Company Websites</td>\r\n<td valign=\"top\">Your target companies have “career” or “jobs” sites.

of your job search has the most avoidable mistakes that prevent you from winning the job?  There are more resources on the web and in the book store about job interviewing techniques, pitfalls and tricks, yet I continue to be shocked and dismayed at the performance in interviews.  Yes, it is a performance, and a very critical one.   No, I’m not saying you need to act or be someone you are not.   Quite the opposite.  You need to be the most “prepared-to-interview” example of yourself.\r\n\r\n<strong>Understand what Interviews are For:</strong>   The interviewer is not just listening to your answers. They are examining your behaviors and comparing them to their vision of the “ideal candidate.”    From your hand shake to your interview closing to your follow up…all of it matters.   They are watching you to see if the skills you exhibit in the interview are close to what they need in the day-to-day job.  If you are not prepared, then you won’t be well-prepared for a critical meeting.   If you are late with some excuse like “there was an accident on the highway” then you will be late for work.   If you don’t make eye contact, then you won’t make eye contact with peers and customers.   You get it.\r\n\r\nSo it’s important to know what to do and what NOT to do every step of the way. In this short space, I’m going to share the most common pitfalls that interviewers fall into so you can, at least, recognize when you are heading to the edge of the cliff:\r\n\r\n<strong>#1 Being Late.   </strong> This includes phone meetings, informational meetings, or the first interview of the day.  Rule:  if you are not ready by the phone or in the waiting room by 30 minutes prior to the start time, then you are late.    When you are late, the perception the interviewer is building is that you are not committed, do not have good time-management skills, and you would be late to meetings once hired.\r\n\r\n<strong>#2 Being Unprepared. </strong>  Two areas are key:  (1) Prepare for the questions, bring good questions and (2) Bring the right things to the meeting.   Rule:  Always bring printed copies of your resume and cover letter and the job description.   Always bring paper and 2 pens (back-up).  When you are unprepared the perception created is that you did not take the time to research their company, the job, you have no insightful questions, and that you might be unprepared for key events once hired.\r\n\r\n<strong>#3 Having an “Attitude” </strong>  This comes in many shapes and sizes and can sabotage your entire interview. The most problematic attitudes are egotistical, negative about a prior manager, company or experience, and the victim. The egoist claims to have no weaknesses or gaps in their skills relative to the job, and believes they are the perfect person for the job.  The negative interviewer either blames their exit from a prior company on that company or manager’s weakness, or admits to something they don’t like to do in any job.   Finally, the victim deflects all accountability, is not self-aware of their strengths and weaknesses and has a good reason why something external was done to them.   Rule:  Hiring managers and interviewers want to hire happy people.   Remember, they are watching if you would be a fit for their existing team and culture.\r\n\r\nIn summary, change your interviewing approach, stand out and “Cut the Crap, Get a Job”.   (<a title=\"Newsletter Sign-Up to Pre-Order the Book\" href=\"http://www.danamanciagli.com/book/\" target=\"_blank\">pre-order my forthcoming book of the same title here</a>)','Interview Mistakes are for Dummies.

They are examining your behaviors and comparing them to their vision of the “ideal candidate.”    From your hand shake to your interview closing to your follow up…all of it matters.   They are watching you to see if the skills you exhibit in the interview are close to what they need in the day-to-day job.  If you are not prepared, then you won’t be well-prepared for a critical meeting.   If you are late with some excuse like “there was an accident on the highway” then you will be late for work.   If you don’t make eye contact, then you won’t make eye contact with peers and customers.   You get it.</p>\r\n<p>So it’s important to know what to do and what NOT to do every step of the way.

You’re stuck. You don’t know what you want to do next and it’s blocking you from finding a job.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Well, you know what? There are ways to figure it out. Time to get over that hurdle and move into job search mode. Get out of “goal-land” and into the active pursuit of your next career chapter.</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Some motivating principles for you:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li><strong>It’s not a life sentence. </strong>Your next move is not a life sentence. You can try something new and if you don’t like that, you can re-group later. Oh, and don’t focus on 5-year goals or what you want to do in 10 years. Just think about what you like and don’t like for your next gig.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You’ll never be sure. </strong>You’ll never be 100% sure it’s the right move until you’ve been in your next role for at least two years. And give it that much time. Year one is just learning. Year two is when you can really make an impact and gauge if you are satisfied.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You’re not alone.</strong> There are many people in the same boat you are. However, will you be the one who picks something and gets off the boat? Or the one who sits in the boat, using the same old, “I don’t know what I want,” excuse for not looking for a job?</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You’ve got choices. </strong>Look at the process of picking your next career move as if it were a shopping experience. You get to “window shop” at multiple opportunities, and then pick a few career targets for your next experience to “try on.”</li>\r\n	<li><strong>You CAN take two. </strong>It’s okay to have two job search goals. I don’t recommend more than that. One of my clients today, Michael, is aiming at two quite different career changes. One, an information technology (IT) applications specialist and, two, a customer-facing consultant. They are very discreet and we are separating his search efforts by these two goals. He is applying to positions in both and we’ll see where he lands soon.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Have a Plan B.</strong>Imagine a dartboard. Draw one. First, define the position that is smack in the middle, the bull’s eye. Now have a career goal that is in the second circle, as well. Call them Plan A and Plan B.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>You have many choices to accelerate your career move decisions. After all, the sooner you resolve what you want to do next, the sooner you can search more effectively and begin working at your new position, right?</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n	<li><strong>Books </strong>such as my own <em>Cut the Crap, Get a Job!</em> and many others are designed to share insights to help you assess your goal and then reach that goal via a more effective job search process.</li>\r\n	<li>Read many <strong>job descriptions.</strong> Hundreds. It’s simple and fun, so block some chunks of time. Try this exercise on picking your goal:Go to any of the big job boards such as Monster.com, Indeed.com, Glassdoor.com. Don’t be selective about city location or industry or company. Focus on function (roles, responsibilities) to figure out what you would enjoy doing eight-to-five.Make a “Yes” pile and a “No” pile - no “maybe” pile - based on the descriptions and key words you read and envision yourself in each job.<br />\r\n\r\nIf you enjoy helping customers, then look at sales and customer service roles. You will find many different titles and roles within each function. For example, within sales, you will see inside sales, outside sales, sales operations, etc. Learn about them and identify the titles and job descriptions you will apply for in the future.</li>\r\n	<li><strong>Coaches.</strong> While we coaches are an investment, we can accelerate the time to complete your goal-determination process. I quickly guide my clients through the steps to define their goals; then we head immediately into job search mode.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>How do you know when you are there? You’re on track when you can fill in the following blanks:</p>\r\n\r\n<p>I am looking for a position in the or in .</p>\r\n\r\n<p>Example: <em>I am looking for a customer service job in the banking or consumer goods industries in Minneapolis, Minnesota. </em></p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kudos to you for recognizing you need to resolve your goal barrier. Now you can start searching with a lot more confidence, conviction, and energy!</p>','Lost in Your Career?
