Looking For Your Dream Job? Get Active And Get Noticed, Says Career Expert
Jobs, Careers & Resume Tips...
Charlotte, NC (PRWeb) January 4, 2007 -- Languishing in a job that doesn't match your abilities? Tired of boring work and low pay? Need to find a really good job fast?
Career coach Don Monteith faces these questions every day as he helps people everywhere find and get the jobs of their dreams. "Often a bad job will keep you too busy and too discouraged to look for a better position. I find the best advice for most job seekers is to get busy, get active, and get attention," Monteith said.
"Coach Don" is author of the book "How to Get Your Dream Job in 30 Days or Less" and was CEO of a large staffing service for 25 years. His seven-lesson mini-course "Seven Secrets to Getting Your Dream Job" is available free at Monteith's http://www.HowToGetYourDreamJob.com .
Monteith advises workers to speak up when they have something of value to share with employers. "Being shy can make you look far less valuable than you are. You'll notice the people who move up in an organization are those who are pretty good at tooting their own horn," Monteith said.
One other major tip for job seekers is to try to be different from the crowd. A resume, a cover letter, the way they are delivered, and an interview can be different and creative in a way that makes a person stand out from other applicants. Strive to point out the aspects of experience, education and outlook that are likely different from others the employer is interviewing.
"Showing you can stand out from the crowd proves to an employer you could be a fine leader. Every employer needs a leader who can get jobs done, solve headaches, and make the organization run more smoothly. Those people are almost always the most appreciated employees in the company," Monteith pointed out.
Monteith offers more ideas for job seekers at his site http://www.career-coaching-central.com . There, he gives job seekers a wide range of tips, tricks and surefire strategies ranging from career options and career development to help in changing careers at any stage in life. "Whether it's time for you to move up in your current job or you need a new job fast, I've got the strategies that can help you," Monteith said.
