- [Sites You Should Be Using](https://careerandresume.com/2012/12/17/sites-you-should-be-using/) - I am often asked by clients, seminar and workshop attendees and colleagues to recommend websites to bolster professional development, career and networking/business opportunities. With the myriad of sites available on the Internet, culling the herd can be exhausting and time consuming. My recommendations will come in blog posts over the upcoming months in three subject areas:
- [The Unemployed and the Electronic Application Nightmare](https://careerandresume.com/2012/10/31/the-unemployed-and-the-electronic-application-nightmare/) - Links for articles and blogs with similar topics, some of which I am citing are pasted below and I encourage you to read them, as the information is exceptionally topical. From the time I started my full time resume writing and career coaching business in 1999, scanning systems - called ATS (applicant tracking systems) have
- [Think Before You Post!](https://careerandresume.com/2012/10/23/think-before-you-post/) - A new TLNT article regarding "Caustic Twitter Rants Cost Employee His Job AND Unemployment Benefits" showcases the need for common sense in all Internet-based communications (email, social media, article comments, etc.). Thus why I tell clients, just because you think it, doesn't mean everyone has to hear about it. While we have freedom of speech,
- [Lying on a Resume](https://careerandresume.com/2012/10/04/lying-on-a-resume/) - Years ago, around 2006/2007, a survey was done by a large national media outlet on how many people admitted to lying on their resume - this was prior to the full economic meltdown. Answer - 83% admitted lying on a resume in the past! During a critiquing session at a career fair, I once had
- [Unemployment Discrimination](https://careerandresume.com/2012/10/03/87/) - Too many articles are currently talking about the talent shortage, but the sad thing is many of these companies that say they have difficulty finding good candidates are discriminating against the unemployed, sometimes those with as little as one month of unemployment. I highly encourage organizations to take a hard look at their system if they
- [The Issue of Employee Engagement and the Talent Shortage](https://careerandresume.com/2012/09/03/the-issue-of-employee-engagement-and-the-talent-shortage/) - A recent article stated that HR is the main issue in employees not staying with an organization or not feeling engaged, however I would like to counter that this is a combined problem of HR and the Executive Suite. Too much work and no reward for extra effort, limited, cost of living, or no raises, employee
- [Top 25 Interview Questions](https://careerandresume.com/2012/07/17/top-25-interview-questions/) - Whether you are unemployed or seeking career advancement, job searching can be very stressful. Although it’s natural to feel anxious when you’re “in the hot seat,” being prepared for that interview can go a long way towards making you feel more confident and presenting yourself in a polished way. Even though you don’t know in
- [Attitude](https://careerandresume.com/2012/05/17/attitude/) - “It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect its successful outcome.” William James 1842-1910, Psychologist, Professor and Author
- [The One-Page Rule](https://careerandresume.com/2012/04/17/the-one-page-rule-2/) - We (Resume Writers, Career Coaches, HR, Hiring Managers, Recruiters) really need to teach job seekers to stop listening to the one-page rule. While one page can be appropriate for some job seekers it is absurd for highly experienced candidates and damages their search by becoming a chronological obituary instead of a marketing document. Two to
- [Determination](https://careerandresume.com/2012/03/17/determination/) - “People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don’t know when to quit. Most people succeed because they are determined to.” George E. Allen 1832-1907, Publisher and Author
- [Self Image](https://careerandresume.com/2012/02/17/self-image/) - “Our self image and our habits tend to go together. Change one and you will automatically change the other.” Dr. Maxwell Maltz 1899-1975, Author
- [Top 7 Tips for Week of 12/05/11](https://careerandresume.com/2011/12/05/top-7-tips-for-week-of-120511/) - Networking is a habit cultivated to create opportunities throughout your career, not a one-off activity exclusively for the job search. Networking with others isn’t about you, but about the other person. Ask questions about their career and job search and see contacts increase. Follow up with those networking contacts, and don’t let the “holidays” excuse
