AARP® Crash Course in Finding the Work You Love by Samuel Greengard Pdf

The authoritative resource for finding new work and new purpose after fifty. Whether they’re old enough to have earned their AARP card or not, a new generation of American workers is no longer counting the days until retirement. Instead, they’re seeking greater fulfillment in their personal lives by tackling new—and often much more socially significant—work. Switching careers is a challenge at any age, yet boomers may have more to overcome than their younger counterparts: They must beef up their education or seek out retraining; cope with seismic lifestyle shifts such as less income and a new circle of friends; and reconcile themselves to the fact that even the most rewarding position is no panacea for life’s problems. After decades writing about career issues for publications as diverse as the Chicago Tribune, Family Circle, Workplace Management, and Wired, Sam Greengard brings a wealth of knowledge to this timely topic. He shows how to sort out your feelings about your existing career; successfully transition to a new one; and work toward a greater sense of balance in your daily life. Profiles of those who’ve attained their own goals are included, along with tips, quizzes, worksheets, how-to sidebars, and other practical resources.

Team Up! Find a Better Job Faster with a Job Search Work Team by Orville Pierson Pdf

You already know that job hunting can be difficult. It can be tough in a good job market. In a bad job market, it can be brutal. You get rejection after rejection. You're constantly faced with the Black Hole of job hunting: You complete applications, post resumes and make contacts, but get no response at all. It can be hard to keep going, and many job hunters have periods of doing far too little - and even slowing down just when they need to speed up. And sometimes it's hard to know what kind of effort to make. Should you make more phone calls? Use more social networking sites? Find more job boards? Make more contacts? A professional career coach could assist you with all of this. However, many job hunters are unemployed and not in a position to hire a coach. A PROVEN SYSTEM But now, there's another solution. Rather than hunker down alone in a home office, you can do your job hunting as part of a Job Search Work Team. Team members do not need to be experts, since they're using a proven system - one that's been successfully used by a 300-office global career services company for over 20 years. Job Search Work Teams have helped thousands of job hunters find great new jobs faster. Team Up! shows you the university research that explains why and how these teams are so successful. And the book tells you exactly what to do to join, start or lead one of these teams. Teams have been shown to shorten job searches by 20%. That could cut a five-month search to four months, and save you a full month's salary. ENDORSED BY EXPERIENCED CAREER PROFESSIONALS Career professionals who have used Job Search Work Teams are enthusiastic about their value for job hunters. On the first two pages of Team Up!, you'll see endorsements from people with a combined total of 200 years experience as professional career coaches. On the back cover of the book, you'll see endorsements from leaders of church, synagogue and nonprofit programs that use these teams. In that kind of program, teams are usually led by the job hunters themselves. The teams have proven successful when led by professional leaders, volunteer workers, or team members. But however they're led, it's important that all team members understand exactly how they work and what to do in meetings to help make every member's search more effective, more comfortable and faster. Team Up! explains the whole thing, step-by-step, telling you exactly how you can start, join or lead one of these teams. JOB SEARCH WORK TEAMS OFFER: *** A comfortable, supportive weekly meeting that's focused on making every team member's job search more effective this week than it was last week. *** Networking assistance, since every member has two dozen eyes and ears on the lookout for job leads and job market information -- not just two. *** An advisory group to answer questions, enumerate options, and provide objective advice. *** A simple progress measurement system that allows job hunters to answer three key questions: (1) "Before you start getting job interviews, how do you know whether you're making progress? (2) How much progress did you make this week? (3) Which of your efforts are producing the progress? TEAM UP! TELLs YOU: +++ How to join an existing Job Search Work Team. +++ How to start your own team if there isn't one near you. +++ How to ensure that every weekly team meeting is safe, comfortable and highly productive for everyone in the room. +++ How to use teams in church, synagogue or community job search assistance programs. +++ How to make your job search more effective - even if you decide not to join a Job Search Work Team. The book is written for career professionals as well as job hunters. It includes a message for career coaches and a complete manual/workbook. It is not available as an e-book because it is in 8 1/2 by 11 inch format and includes numerous full- and two-page graphics that cannot be viewed on those device

You’re Hired! by Rae A. Stonehouse Pdf

Looking for work? Having difficulty in landing your dream job... or any job? Don't know how to do it? You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work provides powerful strategies and tactics to land your next job. Searching for and landing a job can be a stressful, demoralizing experience, especially, if you don't know how to do it properly. The 'old ways' of finding a job often don't work anymore. Finding rewarding work ... is work! You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work, puts you to work in learning how to use 'best practices' to land your 'dream' job. This easy-to-read book is a systematic program providing strategic tactics to maximize your job searching effectiveness. Did you know there is a psychology behind the process of job searching? You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work helps you understand the psychology of job-searching and sets you up for envisioning your success. Resumes... It is often said that “resumes are your ticket to job searching success.” Resumes are still the not so secret weapon to landing a job. You won’t win a lottery if you don’t have a ticket and you are unlikely to be invited for a job interview if you don’t have a dynamic, effective resume that features you as the solution to a problem. Your resume is your ticket that leads to being invited for an interview where you can expand upon your value. An effective, eye-catching resume will get you an interview. We show you how to craft and fine-tune a magnetic resume that will attract an employer’s attention. Are you networking? Many job search industry professionals say that networking is the single most effective strategy for landing your next job. You may think you don’t know anyone who can help you with your job search. But you know more people than you think, and they are willing to help you. However, you need to reach out and connect with them first. “It’s not who you know... it’s who knows you know...” You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work helps you build upon your existing network of contacts and take it to the next level, an opportunity-creating machine. References... Do you have your professional and personal references in place? Are they primed to be your personal cheerleaders? No? Well they should be. You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work provides you with proven tactics to leverage your references to help nail the job for you. Job Interviewing... While looking for a new job and going though hiring interviews can be exciting for some people, for many of us it can be a stressful experience. Is the thought of a job interview keeping you awake at night? You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work systematically builds your skills to excel at interview questions and help you sleep at night. From our experience, one of the biggest problems job seekers often face is they feel they are coming from an inferior position and they don't have a lot of personal power. The belief being that the Employer has the superior position and has all the power. Sound familiar? Yes, they have the job and they have the power to give you the job ... or not. What you may not realize is many Hiring Managers are under similar pressures as you, the job seeker. They are accountable to their superiors should the person they hire not work out. They have the pressure of finding the right candidate for the vacancy they need to fill. You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work levels the playing field between you and the employer. Your task is to become the only choice. The right choice!
