#Job Search Tweet-140 Job Search Nuggets

#Job Search Tweet-140 Job Search Nuggets Im excited to announce that my second book, #JobSearchTweet will be released shortly. The book delivers 140 tweet-like tips on just about every aspect of job search. Its a book that you can read quickly but continue to reference for the duration of your career. Resumes, cover letters, thank you letters, references, recruiters, networking, social media, interviewing, and salary negotiation are all addressed. Heres a sneak peak at a few of the tweets.When writing a resume, include graduation dates; omitting them raises suspicion and calls more attention to the very thing you are trying to hide.Half of hiring managers read cover letters and the other half do not; but you never know which half you are dealing with so always send one when applying for an open position.Have a phone interview? Sit in front of a mirror to anchor you during the conversation and make you feel like you are talking to someone (even if that someone is yourself!)When networking, ask people you meet a lot of questions about themselves. People think you are a great conversationalist when you let them do most of the talking.With traditional networking you can only be in one place at a time; with online networking you can be interacting in multiple communities simultaneously.The negotiation process begins the moment you submit your resume and continues until the offer is finalized. You can’t position yourself at one level on the resume and expect to be compensated at a higher level later on.Interested in the other 134 tweets?
