Notas do Editor

  1. I may or may not share anything with you today that you would consider “EARTH SHATTERING.” However, what I hope to do is … challenge you to maintain a positive outlook on your job search so that you remain engaged and encouraged in the process.
  2. You can’t control how quickly a potential employer calls you back or whether or not they decide to hire you. Rather than wasting your precious energy on things that are out of your hands, turn your attention to things you can control during your unemployment,, such as writing a great cover letter and resume tailored to the company you want to work for and setting up meetings with your networking contacts. The good news is that despite the stress of job loss and unemployment, there are many things you can do to take control of the situation and maintain your spirits.
  3. EXERCISE: 60 seconds … write down what you believe to be true about your job search
  4. You can’t control how quickly a potential employer calls you back or whether or not they decide to hire you. Rather than wasting your precious energy on things that are out of your hands, turn your attention to things you can control during your unemployment,, such as writing a great cover letter and resume tailored to the company you want to work for and setting up meetings with your networking contacts. The good news is that despite the stress of job loss and unemployment, there are many things you can do to take control of the situation and maintain your spirits.
  5. A wise man once said that we must guard our thoughts or we are like a house without doors and windows.We choose the things we believe in – just like we chose what clothes to put on before coming to this event. Many of our beliefs may be unconscious beliefs and we may not even know the why and when we adopted that belief. We we have the ability to choose. Oftentimes what we believe is not even based on “the truth” … it is based on “our perceived truth”Since you have the ability to choose your beliefs, you have the ability to adopt new beliefs that serve you better. AffirmationsJournalingVisualization It’s about removing or reducingthe mental interference that impacts flow and performance
  6. EXERCISE: What do you think of when I say Walmart? … Burger King … Mercedes Benz … Nordstroms … YOU!
  7. EXERCISE: What sets you apart from others in your field?What do you do better than others?What promise of value, benefit, or service will deliver?What do you want to be known for?
  8. Manage your online identity – According to the 2011 Social Recruiting Survey, 89% of US companies will use social networks for recruitingIn December 2009, research commissioned by Microsoft found that 79% of U.S. hiring managers and job recruiters reviewed online information about potential job candidatesPLAN IT – Great communicators craft and design their message. There is no room to wing it. Your opening is where your audience formulates and settles into their impressions of you. KEEP IT SIMPLE -- Average American sees 3,000 advertising messages per dayForgetting Curve –classic memory study by Hermann Ebbinghaus which tells us people forget …40% by end of the meeting60% by end of day90% by end of weekBE CONSISTENT -- Don’t minimize your brandTo develop a strong and resilient career, it is important to know what makes you remarkable THEN: Look for ways to reinforce that branding message throughout your job search (marketing, social medial, follow up)
  9. What are the objectives of an interview?Do you have the skills to successfully do the jobAre you motivated to do the jobAre you a good fit for the organization’s cultureKnow the rules of the game and PREPARE – why type of interview (HR, HM, panel, serial)Realize you are being judged as soon as you arrive – Always maintain your professional composure (i.e., parking lot, lobby, interview, interaction with others) First 3 minutes of the interview is the most critical – Stand, sit, walk like you belong. Remember to make eye contact and smile. Offer a firm handshake; Focus on your communication and image. Engaged participant – What are this job’s current challengesWhat specific skills or qualities are necessary to succeed If you hire me, what projects would you like me to complete within the first 3 months?Is there anything that would keep you from offering me this job?
  10. EXERCISE: What do you think of when I say Walmart? … Burger King … Mercedes Benz … Nordstroms … YOU!
  11. Whirlwind = Energy, Time, Attention required to maintain the job search.Can sabotage your energy, motivation, and progressGoals = critical strategies for moving your job search forward To stay on track with your job search, and to prevent being consumed with the day-to-day whirlwind of a job search, it is important to set monthly, weekly, and daily goals. The “whirlwind” is the energy, time, and attention required simply to maintain the job search. It is the “whirlwind” that can sabotage your energy, motivation, and progress of your job search. Your goals, however, are the critical strategies that keep your job search moving forward. Identify specific goals you need to accomplish for the month. Break those down into a weekly schedule and then daily tasks. Schedule your job search efforts and then honor that commitment.
  12. Creating focus … the one thing you could take action on so you don’t have to hear it again in a few weeks … or the next presentation you attend.
