I'm seeing more signs every day that the economy is improving for a lot of people. There are more job openings at different levels.
If you're just starting out, or in a job you don't like, this is the time to get a head start before everyone else is networking and sending resumes.
There are a lot of talented people who want to make career changes or work for organizations that have reputations as being "best place to work."
Have you developed your strategy to be the only person worth hiring? What are you doing to demonstrate the added value you could bring.
You need to meet and be seen by senior people in your target industry or company. Find out what organizations they belong to and attend one of those meetings. Know who you want to meet in advance and prepare questions so you can interact in a meaningful way and be remembered.
Before you go, google the industry, organization and people you want to meet. This will help you develop your game plan and connect on a personal level.
Please send in questions or let me know how we can help you this month.
