Finding a Job Without a Harvard MBA by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 Too many people treat their job search as if they had an MBA from Harvard. They send their resume or apply online for an appropriate job opening and wait for the phone to ring. Unfortunately, most of us don’t have that highly valued sheepskin, or some other ‘bell ringer’ that will jump off the pages of our resume to reliably cause recruiters or hiring managers to call. So the rest of us have to be more proactive in our sear... |

I Can’t Get a Job Because... by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 There is hardly a job seeker that can’t give you a really “good” reason why their situation is worse than most and they can’t get a job because of it. Certainly there are challenges that many people face that may make it more difficult, but most people over estimate how large those challenges are. Also, there is almost no challenge that can’t be overcome with the right attitude, approach, and determination. I regularly hea... |

I Didn’t Get the Job! by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 Most people in a job search will have at least one experience where everything looks promising, and then they don’t get the job. That can certainly be discouraging, but what you do in the process and how you look at the situation can have a huge impact on what happens in your job search going forward. Here are a few points to consider: ~ It’s probably not personal. It’s a very competitive job market and, like yourself, t... |

I Hate My Job! by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 Most people, at some point of their career wake up one morning and realize they dread the thought of having to go to work. Not because they didn’t get enough sleep or they don’t feel well, but because they hate their job! Often, however, it’s not the ‘job’ they really hate, it’s the company, boss, peers, or circumstances. When you’re immersed in it every day though, it’s sometimes hard to distinguish the difference. Many p... |

There’s no question, a recruiter can be a wonderful resource. I am one...have been for over 20 years and love the fact that I often get to help people find their dream job. I feel like it’s been a good day when I’ve been of value to someone... |

I've Got a Contact Name! Now What? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 So, you were...Networking, or Searching on LinkedIn, or Running a Google Search, or some other way you got a contact name at a company that you are interested in pursuing! Terrific! But NOW WHAT? What do you do with that name? Call them? Email them? Send “Snail Mail”? What do you say? As an introduction, a well planned phone call is ALWAYS more effective than an email or Snail Mail. When making the introduction...reme... |

It’s All About My Skills...Right? by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 In a job hunt, I often hear job seekers complain about not getting a job even though they were a “perfect fit”. Maybe they had done exactly the same kind of work at a competitor. Why wouldn’t they get hired for this position? I usually don’t have to talk to them very long, before it becomes obvious why they didn’t get the job, and usually it has nothing to do with their skills! Employment history, track record of advan... |

Looking For a Job? Turn OFF the TV! by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2009 One of the most valuable assets you can have in a job search is a PMA (Positive Mental Attitude). It makes you a more attractive candidate to any employer, and makes your search much easier to endure. One of the biggest killers of a positive attitude is the TV! Watching the evening news or one of the 24-hour News Networks, you’d think the unemployment rate was 92% rather than 8%! They obviously don’t believe in putting... |
