The majority of executive job seekers prefer to undertake their campaigns as efficiently as possible: find a prospective employee, prepare and send a resume, wait for a response. Many, however, lose time and opportunities needlessly or, worse, settle for lower job offers because they have not promoted themselves in an effective manner.The following approach can help you create an impact in the job market – and help make your executive job search a success.A Frequent Occurrencecal first step is to face your fear, recognize it, feel it and endure it. Here’s the secret of leaders: Fear is uncomfortable but it doesn’t have to stop you. The goal is not to rinse fear out of your body (which is something most people attempt to do), or wait for it to disappear altogether before taking action, (you’ll be waiting a long time). Rather, take action while simultaneously feeling the f
I have seen way too many discouraged job seekers in recent years. And not just here at home, in Detroit, where the auto industry is truly shaken. Certainly the economy is troubling, but that’s not the main reason I find job seekers are discouraged. I think the internet has created a 'monster' of a problem for job seekers.The beauty of internet job search sites is that they give you instant access to a large list of opportunities. The ease factor is very appealing. You can upload your resume
Everyone admires those who can just do it. That’s why the Nike ads were so successful--they resonated with people. Many of us at some time or another will complain of feeling “stuck”. We say we’re not ready; we need to do more research or get another degree or more experience. We blame our parents, ourselves, the job market. We complain about all those things we still haven’t done and yet we postpone taking action. When will we be ready to just do it?
When I lived in San Diego, California, I produced an afternoon radio program that went to air live from 3 to 6 p.m. I used to arrive early and start digging for good stories to feature. I was always searching for what we called in the business “good radio”—people and stories that would touch the heart and add value to daily life. My search for the perfect show could have been endless. There was always one more telephone call I needed to make or one more lead to chase down. But every day at 3 p.m. I had to go to air with a show. There could be no more preparing or postponing. It was showtime. I was forced to just do it.
Wouldn’t it be great if our lives worked like that—at a certain time every day or week, our “producer” walked in and said: “Okay, it’s show time. Just do it!” If you were forced to just do it, how would your life be different today? What have you been postponing?
Knowledge may be power, but knowledge that lies dormant in your brain will not move your life forward. It’s what you do with what you know that will make a difference in your life.

Several years ago I decided to quit my job as a charge nurse at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital and travel the United States as a travel nurse. The thought of being paid to visit the beaches of Hawaii and California or participate in the culture of New York City had become just too appealing. Looking back, there are several things I wish I had known prior to signing up with my first travel nurse agency. The following includes a checklist of some of the things I wish I had known from the beginning: heart and add value to daily life. My search for the perfect show could have been endless.

Recruitment is a delicate and complicated procedure. You have to find the ideal candidate for the vacancy within your company, and the candidate will have to find out if your company is the right one for them. Perhaps the most stressful part of recruitment is the interview – many candidates will be stressed and anxious, which does not make your job any easier. Though it is near impossible to eliminate all the stress, there are ways to make the interview stage a more fruitful and enjoyable experience

Let's be straight up honest for a moment....success can really suck. Not all success, of course. Just the kind that sneaks up behind and knocks you down. The wading-through-the-swamp-wrestling-alligators kind of success that leaves you panting, breathless, staring deep into the gator's mouth.How does success go so terribly wrong? And could it happen to you? Oh yeah. It's as simple as having a great idea, promoting it, and discovering that you are utterly unprepared for the impact your business
In October 1994, the Scandinavian ferry Estonia sank off the coast of Sweden. A violent storm had created an imbalance in its load. The vehicles that had been lined up in neat rows were thrown to one side, making the ship lopsided. It didn’t take long for water to pour in and start pulling the vessel down. The crew told the passengers that each of them had a choice to make: jump into a tiny lifeboat and hope to be rescued or stay on board and risk sinking. The majority of the 1000 passengers looked out at the raging sea and opted for the comfortable, dry surroundings they were in. Only one hundred people had the courage to jump into the darkness. The ride was rough, but they held on and were eventually rescued. They took the step and pushed beyond their fear and their comfort zone, and today those one hundred brave hearts are still alive. The rest of them—the nine hundred who stayed on board—went down with the ship.
You have a choice to make: Do you stretch yourself beyond your comfort zone and feel uncomfortable or do you stay comfortable but stuck? Do you take risks and grow or settle for less? Do you opt for the se
