No B. S. Job Search Advice: Winners and Everyone Else

by

[svp]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ualDntRyIv4[/svp]

There are career winners and then there is everyone else.

This show emerges from the archives that is 1 of my earliest videos.  Although the employment statistics that quote or hold, the core of the show is timeless.

As I look back on it, it is a video that really lays the groundwork for me deciding to become a coach.  A lot of you feel like losers, not simply because you’re out of work or can’t find the job.  You haven’t been able to figure out how to have the career, the business or the life that you want. 

Let me help you. 

 

[spp-transcript]

As I talk with you today, there are almost 25 million people who are out of work or underemployed.  There are countless millions beyond them who hate their jobs and the test waking up in the morning to go to work.

There are also people who are champions, thoroughbreds… Winners!  These are individuals that the system just loves and were hired throughout this awful economic time that we lived through.  

What’s the difference between them?

How can we help the losers become winners?

How can we turnaround a life, help individuals achieve and make their dreams come true?

That’s what I hope to do with this video – – take people that society considers losers and help them become winners and help them make their dreams come true.  In order to do this, wouldn’t take individuals who could be in their 20s or 30s, male or female… It doesn’t really matter.  We want to help deconstruct them, not just for their skills and help them get better skills.

We want to look at the box that they’ve put themselves into that helps them become a “loser.”  I want to help them break out of that box and help them achieve their dreams.  At the end of the show, I want to help them turnaround on lives, step forward and make great things happen.

They Are Watching You | No BS Job Search Advice Radio

by

Jeff Altman, The Big Game Hunter reminds you of all the people that are evaluating you when you interview for a job.

 

[spp-transcript]

Today, let’s talk about 1 of the most underappreciated, under reminded about tips I can give you about job hunting.  There was a song many years ago with the refrain, “I’ll be watching you.”  On an interview, it is not just the interviewer who is watching you.  Every person that you meet, even for a moment, is taking note of you and having an impression of you.

That can be the security guard in the visit in the building that you will be visiting.  That can be the receptionist on the floor that is buzzing you in.  Very truly and confidently speaking to her with a smile on your face, “Hi! My name is so-and-so.  I have a 2:30 appointment to meet such and such person.“

“Great. But you have a seat.“

“Terrific. Happy to do it.“

Then, sit facing the greatest number of entry points to the room so that you can see someone approaching you.

With the interviewer, as well, who may take you around the floor. Later, or introduce you to other people.

The tower seriously doesn’t serve you.  What will serve you, at least in the United States, is a friendly, affable smile, a great handshake, a confident demeanor about you – – these go a long way toward letting people like you.

People get hired for a number of reasons.  Hopefully, 1 of them is that you are  competent enough to do the job.  Then, there are the tiebreakers.  Among the tiebreakers are:

Do I think I can work with this person?

Do I like this person?  Often, this is the 1st question the hiring manager may ask subordinates.  Do you like them? What do you like about them?  Things along these lines can be the tiebreaker between you and another person.

Again, remember, everyone is watching you.  Everyone is noticing you.  Everyone is commenting about you if they meet you.
