Manage Your Job Search

ebook

"

A job search is an emergent project. How do you handle an emergent project? By creating a system that allows for serendipity and flexibility: personal kanban and one-week timeboxes.

Once you have a system, you can use the tips in Part 2 to prepare for your job search: choose your career, write your resume, prepare for your interviews, and decide how you will decide on an offer. In Part 3, you'll learn how to network without feeling slimy. You'll learn to build your target network, where to look for the jobs that you need, and how to spot the warning signs of a job that organizations might no longer need. There are many traps for unsuspecting job hunters, so Part 4 has a section on traps to avoid and tips to try. If you're in special circumstances, such as being a new grad, in a career transition, or over 50, then Part 5 is for you. Even if you've been diligent, any job search can take more than three months. Part 6 addresses your feelings and how to persevere when your search seems as if it takes forever.

Written with her trademark practicality, humor, and empathy, Johanna will help you learn how to find your next job.

This book was written and produced entirely by the author. We are proud to be distributing it.
