I’m going to keep this short.
Many job seekers have trouble with interviews. Some are excellent candidates but struggle with presenting themselves effectively.
By completing a reputable sales training course, job seekers in this category can gain skills in areas where they struggle, including:

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average duration of a job search is currently close to 5 months. This estimate is just that – an estimate.
It does not spell out every job seeker’s situation. Some gain employment within days, others weeks, and a few months for a select number of people. Some job searches go on for…

Job seeker John applies for a job and is called in for an interview.
The company likes job seeker John and offers him the position.
The salary is below job seeker John’s expectations, so he opts for negotiations.
The company obliges, but during negotiations, job seeker John…

Last week I touched on the fact that job seekers in the private sector have issues explaining their workplace accomplishments on their resumes or during interviews.
Many times, they don’t know what to say.
I recommended that they leverage their past performance reviews and capture the data for use in these…

Has this happened to you?
If so, you’re not alone.
You found the perfect federal job you wanted to apply for and thought you had enough time to submit your application.
Time got away from you, and you returned, thinking you had made it just in time.
And then, boom.
The job had expired.
How could this happen?

To help you understand the importance of clearing your mind before an interview, read the job search folktale below.
Tim, a sales professional, applied for a job at Tompkins, Inc. and received (and accepted) an interview invitation.
The night before the interview, Tim had family over for dinner.
Things were going well until…

Have you checked out the latest Employment Situation Summary from the Bureau of Labor Statistics?
According to this release, the number of unemployed persons in the U.S. rose by 440,000 to 6.1 million in May.
While this number may not encompass all individuals who are unemployed due to inclusion criteria, it provides us with…

This won’t take long at all, I promise.
When your resume enters the room, metaphorically speaking, does it talk for you?
After a quick review, does it say to the hiring team “call {your_name}?”
If it doesn’t, call us.
We are ready to get your resume talking.

Because some folks believe something to be true doesn’t negate the fact that the fallacy in question is incorrect.

Stories about layoffs, wrongful terminations, and quitting jobs are in abundance, on and offline, among the job-seeking population.
Discourse about self-inflicted employment terminations, not so much. And I get it, as this is a touchy subject, and people don’t want to be judged upfront for past behaviors.
Therefore, I’m going to…

While this story might be old news for some, others may not have heard about it.
Some time ago, a North Carolina woman who was laid off from her job did something out of the ordinary.
After receiving advice to “think outside the box” to get a company’s attention from her former colleague, she printed her resume on a cake and…

The higher the number, the greater the impact, and in turn, the more successful a post is, right?
While this sounds good, it isn’t necessarily true.
When a job seeker shares a post, their objective in most cases is to shine a positive light on themselves to help them land their next opportunity.
Sometimes, the…

As with the private sector, there are job seekers who apply for loads of federal jobs indiscriminately, without considering the requirements or their suitability for the open role.
Not a big deal, right?
Well, it’s a huge deal. Why?
I’ll give you one reason. When federal agencies release a vacancy announcement, they specify…

I’m going to keep this short and sweet.
There is a high likelihood that you are about to fall for a scam if you “take the bait.”
Making thousands of dollars by putting in only a few hours of work per month, if on a legitimate path, can take years of work.
If it were as easy as some would make it, a lot more people would be…
