Career and Job Finding Tactics - Keep In Touch With Those Who Might Help

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

A key part of your simple and fun job finding tactic is to find a way to get the best - yes, even more -  from who you already know (remember those hundreds, maybe thousands of people in your ‘army’ of supporters?).

Keep in touch from time to time - have fun even! If you have to rebuild relationships that have withered away, then make sure that you don’t let that happen in the future - keep in touch occasionally and make the bridge more solid. You just never know when it might come in handy!

Provide a resource for them as they will for you, into the future, for the success of you all.

Networking savvy is just one great, free job finding tactic that you can use. It’s easy, it requires no tricky meetings with people you don’t know, who only want to take from you.

Of all the job finding tactics, this is the one you need and you can start tomorrow!

Career Networking Skills - Provide Value For Who You Know

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

If you want to know how to absolutely ensure that you will get the support from your friends, family and other acquaintances, then you have to do only one thing.

You have to recognize ways that you can help them and provide that help.

So, OK, that doesn’t sound easy maybe, does it? But if you really listen well, then you are already offering far much more than anyone else. A listening, objective ear is unusual!

People are always trying to fix them; offer advice; tell them how to fix their lives. But not you - in fact you help them solve their own problems by listening and asking great questions that can help them discover their own solutions.

That’s great value!

Don’t underestimate the value of being a nurturing, supportive ear and help others to find their own ways to solve their own problems - likely enough, no-one else will!
