Managing the Job Search: Actions and Attitudes
• Actions– Refresh your resume at least once a month.– Invite people to go for a walk.– Acknowledge feelings and recognize them as
simply that. Then take action. Do not be distracted
– Attend Workshops and Seminars in your field
• Attitudes– Handle Staffing Agency calls quickly, but
firmly– Be assertive, not arrogant, and stay in
contact with the HR recruiter– Be friendly and open to new ideas– Always try to be helpful to recruiters. They
are connectors. Be a connector for them.

Final Pearls of Wisdom• Whenever you are asked if you can do a job, tell 'em, 'Certainly I can!' Then get busy and find out how to do it.
- Theodore Roosevelt
• Emergencies have always been necessary to progress. It was darkness which produced the lamp. It was fog that produced the compass. It was hunger that drove us to exploration. And it took a depression to teach us the real value of a job.
- Victor Hugo
• All Happiness comes from thinking of others. All suffering comes from thinking of one’s self.
- Dalai Lama
