I took a step back from doing this podcast to take a break and other reasons. Now I’m back, when I can and when I want to share with you “I’m back!” I also share some new tips in your job search.
I held mock interviews and gave an opportunity to those in gaining that interview experience. Listen as I talk about the process for how I held those. If you are interested in holding them yourself, email me at ConsultLancaster@gmail.come for additional information.
Why is going into a trade or craft still considered as something bad or “beneath” parents’ children and people? My thoughts on going into the blue collar workforce and families being okay with their bit or girl wants to play with Tonka trucks as adults.
The holiday season is the best time to apply for jobs. People who are on leave or vacation don’t even want to look at their computers or think about applying for jobs during the chaos of the holiday season. Take advantage!
In this episode, I talk about it name dropping helps during an interview and some things to consider. I also discuss “topping” and interview panel or panel member.
I want to talk to you about the importance of doing your job versus box checking for education, training, etc. #Job #JustDoIt #Training #Work #Education #ShowUp

Perceptions of job hopping is bad. Sometimes it needs explained and you need to be up front with why you are switching from one job or company to another.
When I help someone with a resume, up front I’m going into it as a 50/50 responsibility between the client and me. This is because I don’t know anything about you so there’s a lot of information I need to help the client’s resume look good.
In this episode, I talk about LinkedIn and how using the search function can grow your network, but it also helps you learn from connections or others who you may follow. LinkedIn is a great tool for high school students who are trying to want to start networking with their future college professors or fellow students.
Have you ever had a dream where you didn’t graduate high school and you had to go back and retake those classes? I did. Why? I never had closure from not walking at a graduation from my college degrees. My first day of work included a motorcycle guy, beer, a dunk tank, and a new mentor.
