The Face of Change
Bob down the street told you today that he has 30 days left at his current job. Then, Mary tearfully explained that her family was about to lose their home while you were at swimming lessons with the kids this week. You even noticed that your own budget seem impacted with the recession. Is it time for change?
The market is not what it use to be, that is almost an understatement. Does it have to be all doom and gloom? It is crucial that you stay in a dead end job just to stay afloat? Perhaps, for a while this is key. Yet, even more important than just staying is changing. Changing how you think about your work. Take efforts to increase your standings at work, improve your records, your attendance, your recommendation pile, that is why staying is important at this moment.
Even more important than just staying, is staying connected and current. Even if you are similar to Bob, the neighbor down the street, and your current position is ending soon, you still have a chance to take a few key steps now before it ends. Get letters of recommendation, make new connections, reconnect with coworkers who have changed venue. Join sites such as LinkedIn and PlaxO. Most importantly update your resume and be ready for the future - where change is happening.

Career Expo Ready - Are you?
Are you Career Expo ready? Yes? How do you know? Here are a few FAST tips to make sure you are ready when you walk in the door. Don't pull up to the parking space without first taking these few steps to make sure you walk out with an interview - or maybe even a JOB!
1. Dress professionally. Don't over do it, a suit and tie or fancy dress is not necessary. Even if you wear jeans, make sure that your clothes are clean and neat. Taking time to present your self as professional is a great "first impression."
2. Bring your equipment. Pencil & Paper, Resumes, & List of References are essential not optional.
3. Research. Do a little research before you show up at the door. Find out which companies are coming to the job expo. If you can't locate this information ahead of time, try to at least be prepared to answer some basic skills questions by reading up on interview techniques. Paul Falcone is always a good author to start with in this department.
4. Present & Respond. When you approach a booth to inquire about work - smile, meet eyes, and present yourself as both friendly and approachable. Be confident (not cocky) about your skills and abilities.
5. Remember to obtain call back information. When at a booth if you leave a resume, make sure you get a business card of company information packet. Write down the name of the person you spoke to so that you can follow up later.
6. Find out the process. When you speak with the company recruiter make sure you know what they are looking for. Ask questions and find out when the interviews are taking place. Will they call you? Do you need to show up somewhere at a specific date and time? Get the specifics.
7.Don't stay too long! After you meet and greet and find out about the positions don't linger too long looking desperate for work. Leave your name, resume, and move on. Your first impression is what counts!
Remember as you leave the Expo you should have no resumes left but a pile of company business cards or information packets, dates and times to follow up on, and at least a few names for call back and reference information. Now, are you ready?

The Best of Times & The Worst of Times
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." As is evident in today's economy life can be likened to the simple quote by Charles Dickens. For some life has remained the same. Work, home, and play continue in the same carefree fashion. Yet, for a vast majority life has changed dramatically creating a sense of urgency and need. Where and how do we find work? Although that answer might seem to elude even the most diligent job seeker the real answer is that there are still jobs out there for the having. However, instead of them seeking you out of the pile you are going to have to pursue them.
The job market is rapidly changing from an employer seeking market to an employee seeking market. What does that mean for you? In short, it means that if you want a job you are going on a hunt. It will require that you submit not just 10 resumes this time around, rather 100 resumes. Thank you notes, follow up telephone calls, and pursuit are a must and not an option in this market. Does that mean it is the Worst of times? Not exactly. You can and will find work. But you will need to be a little more creative and a "lot more willing" to seek it out.
