  How to Succeed in an Internship
by Lindsey Pollak - Jan, 2009
As spring break approaches, many college students are making plans for summer internships. As I’ve blogged about previously, internships are more important for young professionals than ever. Thanks to Heather Huhman, of the Entry Level Careers Examiner, for sharing eight of my tips for internship achievement. 1. Learn how work is different from school. Of course, the most exciting difference between college and the real wor...
 
  13 Steps To Help Secure Your Job
by Ramon Greenwood - Jan, 2009
There may be forces at work beyond your control that can disrupt your career path and put your job at risk, but there are at least 13 steps you can take to help secure your employment and advance you toward your career goals. 1. Come to work early and stay late. This schedule demonstrates, like nothing else, that you are making the extra effort. The extra time enables you to plan your day and review your performance at the ...
 
  Are You a Thermostat or Thermometer?
by Valerie Sokolosky - Jan, 2009
Habits are easy things to get into – the good, the bad and the ugly. For all of us in these difficult economic times, one particularly critical habit to embrace is “proactivity.” Proactivity is the power, freedom and ability to choose the way we respond to whatever happens – around us and to us - based on our values. As we make these choices, we can be a thermostat or a thermometer. As a thermostat, our choice can either...
 
  What’s Your Brand?
by Valerie Sokolosky - Jan, 2009
If you think you’ll get ahead, simply by just working hard, think again. If you have a job, you have a responsibility to do the work, but you simply must be more than that. If you’re looking for a job, you must set yourself apart to be distinctive in the minds of those who can influence your career. Think of it as creating a brand for “You, Inc.” Consider a strong company brand that’s familiar – like Starbucks, Disney,...
 
  A Bad Workplace Habit to Nip in the Bud This Year
by Marcia Robinson - Jan, 2009
Like fire on a dry California hillside during the Santa Ana winds, office rumors can spread really quickly. I just got off the phone with a friend who was a little disgusted by a co-worker who had called her at home - on a Sunday, no less - to share information about what was rumored to take place at the office this next week. I am thinking that my friend's office will be like many others this year, where employment fears ...
 
  Carve Your Success Key
by Nan S. Russell - Jan, 2009
I had just finished commenting to my husband how much I liked the use of copper in the Parade of Homes' kitchen we were touring, when I overheard another woman telling her husband how much she disliked the look. It made me laugh. It's funny how we see things differently. Work is like that too. It's fraught with differences of opinion. One of the more confusing areas can involve your performance. Early in my career, my boss ...
 
  How to Not Feel Guilty About Leaving at 5 p.m.!
by Marcia Robinson - Jan, 2009
If you are returning to work after a long absence, know that some workplace protocols have changed. One of the changes you might notice is that people are working longer hours. You will also notice that many managers expect employees to work beyond the published hours, since company productivity and competition demands it. For the company, greater productivity means greater output, which translates to higher revenues and ultim...
 
  Transferable Skills Alone Won't Win That Job
by Joe Turner - Jan, 2009
Given the massive layoffs and shrinking numbers of jobs in many industries, it is possible, if not likely, that you will be forced to leave your industry or specialty area. To assure that you’re successful in winning a job, it is necessary to master survival skills. To this end, many job search experts and career coaches talk about transferable skills, but what does this mean to you if you're the one receiving the pink slip? ...
 
  Stop Bashing Gen Y Workers!
by Lindsey Pollak - Jan, 2009
I try to read everything in the news about Generation Y and careers. This means I regularly find myself plodding through frustrating stories about how the Millennials are “entitled,” “coddled” and “disloyal.” Friday’s article on MSNBC.com is yet another maddening example. When did the Baby Boomers mantra “Don’t trust anyone over 30” turn into “Don’t trust anyone under 30”? Why, during the worst economy in over 60 years, ...
 
  Are You Suffering From An Expectation Hangover?
by Christine Hassler - Jan, 2009
Dear Christine, I read about "Expectation Hangovers®" in your book and I feel like I am having one because of my job. I enjoy the work and environment less and less every day, which is disappointing because I thought I'd really love working in this field. I have totally lost my motivation. I don't know whether I can get over this or if I should start looking for another job. - Hungover at Work, 24 Dear Hungover at Wor...
