I severely thought I already wrote this weblog put up however, properly, right here we’re. A month in the past tomorrow I printed Get Hired the guide, to assist people who find themselves in a job search at the moment. I introduced IT final July and as I used to be writing IT felt like IT was my magnus opus… a end result of what I’ve been doing since 2006. This guide got here collectively, on paper, rapidly, however solely as a result of I had spent the final 18 years centered on job search. As I’ve travelled the U.S. talking to job golf equipment, job ministries, and different organizations, I’ve contemplated methods and ways. I’ve talked to job seekers and profession professionals who assist job seekers.
All of this got here collectively to develop into Get Employed the guide. I’m happy with this guide. That is my first guide that’s available in paperback and Kindle and soon, Audible.
I’m going to share a really good evaluate I obtained from a pal of mine, Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter. I included a few of this on the again of the guide, however IT didn’t all match. Jacqui is an professional wordsmith and has been serving to folks, principally executives, craft their branding statements and paperwork (like resumes) since I’ve identified her. Her enterprise is Career Trend, here. Right here’s what she stated:
Jason Alba doesn’t simply advise you as a job seeker, he additionally empowers you.
He does this by describing how one can change your self-perception and affect how others understand you. By doing so, you’ll be able to higher focus and align your job search to a significant conclusion.
This isn’t a light-weight, rah-rah guide; as an alternative, IT’s stuffed with sensible, sweat fairness (psychological AND bodily) suggestions which you could begin doing at the moment.
As an govt resume author, I zeroed in on Precept 2 (Private Branding); considered one of my favourite takeaways was Jason’s reference to renew templates—{that a} resume template produces an bizarre end result, which ‘might’ be sufficient, however how no skilled marketer shoots for ‘simply sufficient.’
Maybe you wish to pull your self out of the depths of a ‘dreary job search journey,’ or possibly you’re at present employed however wish to construct strategic muscle that advances your future targets; both means, this guide will present the compass to propel you ahead in your next-phase journey.
Make investments on this guide—in these “profession nutritional vitamins,” at the moment!
I recognize these considerate phrases, and the endorsement. You may get your own copy of Get Hired the book on Amazon here.
NOTE: Get Employed the guide shall be accessible on Audible quickly… for now, IT is on the market in paperback and kindle.
