| Tip of the Month |
When using the web for your job search, set time limits for each session. Use your PC if it has a timer feature, or your phone, or even the kitchen timer.
Why do this? It's easy when using the Internet to get lost in your screen. One job posting leads to reading about the company which leads to reading a news story which leads to checking email....
All of these are good things, but not during "prime time" for networking: during the hours of 8am to 8pm, when it's most possible to be WITH people. That's your priority in your search.
You'll never look at the kitchen timer the same way again!

| Stuck or Stalled in Your Search? |
Your career funds your life. So are you tired of waiting for
"something" to happen in your career while watching
others land good jobs? Are you
ready to take
action and land where you should be?
Do you want to laugh at the Great Recession?
Then
consider a Quick Consult with the Queen -- Job Search
and Resume Queen, that is!
Here's what one Sales Engineer said about
his Quick
Consult: "I feel like a Sales Engineer for the first time in 12 months."
Why let more
time go by with no salary or a too-low salary? Find out
what's
right AND what's wrong during a Quick
Consult with the Queen. This
1 1/2 to 2-hour session gives you concrete steps
to follow for getting unstuck. It also gives you practical
insights into what
YOU bring a new employer, knowledge about what
sets you apart from the crowd of other candidates.
The fee is $175 and the results are priceless!
And if you
choose to work with Joanne on these steps,
that fee is applicable to any job search project
package.

does Quick Consults in person, via Skype, or over the

Ever since a colleague called Joanne Meehl
"The
Resume Queen" years ago, and she then
trademarked the title, Joanne has worked to live up to
the name by constantly keeping her resumes in tune
with what employers will read. Since then, she added
"The
Job
Search
Queen" (now also trademarked), and uses this
title more often,
because it
better reflects the breadth of
her services.
