The keys to finding and landing a new job come down to one simple truth --
job-seekers must develop and follow a detailed job-search plan.
That was part of the message QuintCareers.com founder Dr. Randall Hansen delivered
to interested students and other guests at a QuintCareers workshop at Missouri Western
State University (MWSU) yesterday. Both Dr. Hansen and Dr. Katharine Hansen addressed some of the
fundamental truths of job-hunting, as discussed in our Job-Search 101 Tutorial.
Whether you're new to job-hunting, seeking an internship, or re-entering the job
market, you'll find some valuable pointers in our tutorial that will lead you to more success.
Go to: Job-Search 101, where you'll
find information on resumes, networking, interviewing, and salary negotiation, as well
as planning for career fairs, using the Internet for job-hunting, and following-up.
The visit to MWSU is part of the Fall 2008 QuintCareers.com/EmpoweringSites.com Tour.
