  1. Why Now is THE Best Time of Year to Find a New Job (2024-2025) | Job Search Challenge®

    Why Now is THE Best Time of Year to Find a New Job (2024-2025) | Job Search Challenge®

    I realize it’s mid-November and the Christmas décor has already draped many stores for an entire month, but your career doesn’t take a holiday (nor do I). Today, I’m serving up a major lesson on why now is literally THE BEST time to job search. You’re at the start line of a 3-month hiring frenzy. It doesn’t matter whether the year is 2005, 2010, 2015, 2020 or 2024 or any other years I omitted. It doesn’t matter what you do. Who you are. Who you were. Or, who you want to be. It's the SAME every single year. As an executive recruiter, I could have rolled out of bed on Halloween. Worked until the end of January. And taken the rest of the year off. Every year. Employers start hiring like crazy NOW. You might consider me nutso for thinking this. After all, it’s contrary to what most think. But just because many think it doesn’t make it so. I’ll debunk the myth for you. What’s more, I’ll teach you how to swap out couch duty for my Job Search Challenge®. That way you’ll know exactly how to approach this target-rich, job-searching time. There’s no time to waste. Just like I said right there on page 313 of The Zebra Code in Chapter 21 My Gift to Find Your Gift (which, by the by, is my all-time favorite chapter and prose I’ve ever written)… “Have faith that true champions are made in the darkness. They’re the ones that practice before the sun rises. The treasure that time and know their effort is what will help them make a better life for themselves and others.”   Let’s get to it!

Check out the milewalk Academy, my coaching and training site, for freemiums and premiums. 2. I have hundreds of educational and inspirational videos on my YouTube Channel. 3.

    The Best Way to Prepare for a Job Interview

    In my lifetime, I’ve prepared, oh, conservatively, about a bajillion job candidates for their interviews. Most are so worried about the wrong stuff. Most prepare backwards. They think What questions will I be asked? I need to come up with a good answer for [insert the dumb ones here about disagreements and conflicts and weaknesses, etc.]. Uh, no. As is, heck to the no! It’s not about what the interviewer asks. It’s about what the interviewer needs to know—so they hire YOU!

    10 Techniques to Sound More Accomplished in Your Resume and Job Interviews

    Who doesn’t want to sound more accomplished? Amiright?!?! More accomplished = more attractive to potential employers. I’m not talkin’ “accomplished “in the “overqualified” sorta way.

If you sound more accomplished, you have a better chance of getting more too. True story. But, what if you’re, well, junior? Or, what if you’ve been doing the same job for a long time? Or, don’t have a “big” title? Or, interviewing for a job that manages lots of people? And you haven’t, like, ever? For the bajillionith time, “Don’t worry!” Your Houdini of a career coach has you covered. Join me today for 10 nifty ways to punch up your resume and job interview stories to sound more accomplished, senior, and all-around desirable!

    9 Unconventional Habits That Lead to Success

    It hurts me when I see people make a mistake. It practically kills me when I see them repeating—on purpose—the same mistake. I’ve made lots of mistakes, so please don’t think I think I’m a know-it-all. I don’t judge anyone because they made different mistakes than I did. We’re all different and have walked different paths, experienced different things, and built different perspectives. I like to think, however, that age and experience have helped me test different theories and note the results. Today, I’m sharing 9 unconventional pieces of wisdom, tactics, and habits I’ve learned through my testing of life. It’s a gamut from building skills to solving problems to dealing with people I’ve learned from running all those tests and making those aforementioned mistakes. A real rainbow of goodness. I hope you enjoy it… If you'd like to build a great career and lead a rewarding life, check out some of these other places where I share my teachings: 1.

Were self-aware to know what to look for, how to evaluate whether it fits, and make great career decisions? Good habits? Effectively plan and run your (job-search) day? Have more confidence? Become more empathetic and use it to your advantage in interviews? Uh, network more effectively? HELLO! Communicate better?

    The Career Profile is the Most Important Part of Your Resume | How to Write One That Wins

    I spent more time coming up with complete title of The Zebra Code: A Step-By-Step Guide to Mastering Career Skills That Make You a Standout Professional than writing the entire book. 7 months for the title. 6 months to write the entire book (really 5, because I spent a month polishing). True story. Why? I wanted to get in… Something unique (and avoid generic leadership-y titles like The Leadership Code yawn). Short main title (2-3 words only). A metaphor people will understand. Ability to coin, copyright, unique URL for the title, etc. Ongoing books in a series (for future offsprings). Tell them what’s inside (of course). Demonstrate there’s a framework (but didn’t want to be wordy). Make a promise as to what will happen when they read the book. Be specific about reader avatar (title needed to include something about the “who”). So, it shakes out… Code = Takes care of the item on methodology inside. Guide = It IS a guide, but I could have used the word “system” here instead. Mastering the Career Skills = It’s really about this and there are detailed lessons inside. Standout = This is what will happen to you and picks up zebra metaphor. Professional = The book is genuinely for white collar professionals even though anyone can read it. Don’t even get me started on the number of sleepless nights I had thinking about the cover design. Wondering what gives with my analogy? Seconds baby. Seconds. As in S-E-C-O-N-D-S. That’s what YOU have to make the impression. You don’t actually think you get your entire resume to make an impression??? Uh, heck to the NO. Your career profile, the executive summary of your ENTIRE professional life if you will, is your billboard. It’s your title and subtitle. It’s your ONE and BEST chance to get them excited. To entice them to review the rest of your glorious resume which substantiates everything you CLAIMED in your career profile. Just like The Zebra Code. I enticed you with the title and subtitle. Then, fulfilled my promise on the 352 pages that sit inside the cover. You get 2 paragraphs and then the remaining 1.875 pages to make good on your promise. It happens in seconds. Or 2 paragraphs.
