HOT TOPIC
If you are not employed, your full time job IS your job search. In our Job Seeker webinar this week, one of the participants said that he didn’t want his job search to "consume" his day - but that is exactly what you need to do. If you are not working, you should be spending at least 35 hours a week working on your job search. This includes submitting resumes, identifying targets where you can send your resume directly to the person who would be your bosses boss, follow up calls on past activity and networking efforts.

Declare today as the first day of the Second Phase of your job search. Don’t let your disappointments from the past affect your actions going forward. You can't walk forward and backward at the same time! If you keep focusing on what has happen in the past, you can't progress your search forward.

Make a commitment today to a certain level of results daily. This should include: How many resumes you will submit, how many phone calls you will make, how many people you will add to your network, how many interviews you will schedule and how much research you will conduct.

The economy is improving, the job market is improving and it’s time for your job search to "consume your day"!

MUST READS
The people in your network and possibly hiring authorities must actually take the time to read your resume in order for you to schedule interviews. Your resume is your ticket to the interview whether it is an informational or job interview.

If you are not scheduling interviews, it could be your resume. Remember we are willing to review your resume once for FREE and tell you exactly what changes you have to make to improve your results.
