I am a bit behind on completing the update today because I am trying to get a step ahead of things I usually do on Friday. I may post additional resources on February 5.

I'm going to take next week to work on taxes, so it is likely I will not post an update until February 18.

New This Week

Here's an FYI for you. Susan Ireland, my favorite resume expert, has added YouTube videos to her website with great information for you. They are short (under 2 minutes) but very much to the point and cover several specific topics including resumes, interviews, handling a layoff, and more. Each page of her site features a different video, or you scan look at the entire collection on YouTube . Check them out.
  • Job Search Guidance: Advice for the Mature Job Seeker -- added a link to the Age 50 Plus Career Coach Blog by Camille Grabowski, a career coach specialized in working with mature workers.
  • Job Search Guidance: Finding the Hidden Job Market -- added a link to the Unlock the Hidden Job Market blog authored by Duncan Mathison.
  • Western Europe: France -- added Qual.fr, a resource for connecting professionals in many fields with premiere opportunities in this country.
  • Executive Search Firms: D E F -- added FPC of Concord, recruiting managers, executives, and professionals in the following fields: engineering and technical, including chemists, R&D, and quality; supply chain and logistics; healthcare (physicians, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistants).
  • Interviewing: The 30-Second Elevator Pitch -- we're taking it a step farther -- 6 seconds! Check out the new article on Your Personal Branding Statement.
  • Networking Tips and Pointers -- added one article from Walter Feigensen with networking tips for Introverts plus a second article by Duncan Mathison who advocates networking with people you like to find a more satisfying employment situation.
  • Healthcare & Medicine: Multiple Fields: Recruiters -- added EMP: Emergency Medical Physician, a physician-owned staffing and recruiting company working with emergency departments in various locations in the US. Also added HMG: Hospitalists Management Group, a physician-owned and managed provider of hospitalist services offering opportunities for physicians and nurse practitioners/physician assistance in numerous settings.
  • Corporate Finance / Banking / Accounting -- added the Accounting Career Network and the Banking & Financial Services Career Network, both associations of executive recruiters specializing in these particular aspects of financial recruiting.
  • Teen / Seasonal / Kinda Cool Opportunities: Seasonal -- added a link to the summer employment page for iD Tech Camps, offering award-winning technology programs at top universities in the U.S. and Canada. They have special Gaming, Visual Arts, and Programming Academies, so they need some totally geeked summer staff.

He emphasizes patience at this point and details items to look for in the offer and contract you receive along with steps to take if you do not see what you would like or if you see things that are not in agreement with what you had earlier discussed.
  • Social Sciences: Language Skills -- added a link to the Russian Opportunities Blog, posting ads for jobs, internship and volunteer opportunities, fellowship opportunities, and other tidbits for people who are seeking to work in the area.

More Scams

There is yet another scam hitting persons who are out of work. Several states are issuing warnings about a new scam where UI recipients are receiving text or voice messages on their cellphones saying their accounts have been closed and asking you to provide your account number and PIN to them to reactivate their account. NEVER GIVE THIS INFORMATION TO ANYONE, and never give your account information to anyone who calls you with this message. The scammers are trying to gain access to your funds. Go home, find the number for your local agency in the phone book, and you call them to find out what is going on. For more information, check this notice from the State of New York
