Dealing with “The Jerk” by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2010 Someone in one of my job search classes had a terrible experience at a recent interview and wasn’t sure how she should have responded. The interviewer/hiring manager was rude, confrontational, aggressive, and belittling. Essentially… he was a Jerk! It’s pretty rare that it happens… but sometimes it does. What should you do if you are confronted with that kind of situation, and does it necessarily mean the potential oppo... |

What’s an Employer Really Looking For in Your Resume? by Teena Rose - Nov, 2010 Most job-seekers write their resumes with one thing in mind—themselves! They toot their own horn so loud the interviewer is blown away by the sound. The “I did this” and “I achieved that” approach is important, of course.

Reading Between the Lines BUT—he or she is also lo... |

Your Elevator Speech: Keep It Simple Silly by Harry Urschel - Nov, 2010 So often, when job seekers give their Elevator Speech at a networking event or when asked in a formal environment, they give an overly “slick” or a too detailed recitation.

If you come across as if you’re trying to impress them too much, or if they don’t “get” what you do, you won’t get results. Furthermor... |
