Download Nail It! How to Land Your First Job and Thrive Once Hired Book in PDF, Epub and Kindle
The intent in writing this book is to help anyone starting their first job, a new job, and for high school and recent college graduates. I provide lessons I learned, over my 35-year career, taking me from a college graduate to a successful COO of a major company with a seven-figure compensation. Along the way, I had some falls, everyone does. But, hopefully, through reading this book and the guidance I provide, you can minimize your stumbles. In college, you learn book knowledge, principals, and best-case scenarios. There are things you don't learn in college, but you should know before you start your job. Or, if you are fortunate to learn them in college, they are not provided with enough emphasis for you to understand how vital they can be in shaping your career. I have identified several activities/actions you have to know before you send out your resume, apply for a job, interview for a job and your first day on the job. Following them puts your career on the fast track. If you don't follow them, you have a greater chance of stumbling and having to regroup, like I had to do at times. I review and give suggestions on your resume, the face-to-face interview, selecting the right company culture for you prior to getting hired.Once hired, I then provide you with activities that are key to succeeding at work and life including your attitude, first impressions and their significance on your career. I also provide career advice based upon my 35 years of experience. During your career you need to embrace change, have a 5-year plan and know when to not compromise.
