>>
>> THAT'S
>> THAT'S A LOT TO KEEP UP ON. >> WILL THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING
US.
US.
US. WE
US. WE ARE REVIEWING COMMON
MISTAKES MADE BY PARENTS WHEN
THEY ARE REENTERING THE
WORKFORCE.
WORKFORCE. >> SO IF YOU ARE WONDERING
SITTING AT HOME LIKE I WANT TO
DO SOMETHING ELSE, AND WENT TO
GET A JOB, I'M HERE TO HELP
YOU.
YOU.
YOU. >>
YOU. >> GOING TO TELL YOU MISTAKES
THAT YOU MIGHT DO AND REMEDY
THAT.
THAT.
THAT. >>
THAT. >> WEIRDLY ENOUGH, I HAD SAW A
POST WHERE I WAS TALKING ABOUT
SUPPORTING A YOUNG FRIEND WHO
HAD BEEN OUT OF THE WORKFORCE
FOR 15 YEARS AND AND I ASKED
HER HOW THE INTERVIEW IS GOING
SHE SAYS YOU KNOW I KIND OF
FORGOT WHAT MAKES ME SPECIAL AND
SO I WROTE HER A LONG LETTER
AND I SENT IT TO HER.
LIKE THIS IS WHY YOU ARE
SPECIAL.
SPECIAL.
SPECIAL. AND THEY ARE THE HEAD OF THE
HOUSE HOLD.
HOUSE HOLD. AND MAYBE THOSE ARE THEREFORE
AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME.
MAYBE YOU GOT LAID OFF SO YOU
JUST KIND OF NEED TO JUMP BACK
IN.
IN.
IN. >>
IN. >> THAT IS SO KIND OF YOU.
>> THE FIRST ONE IS SENDING OUT
YOUR RESUME TOO SOON.
THIS I LIKE BECAUSE IT SAYS
TAKE A MOMENT AS SOON AS YOU
DECIDE YOU ARE READY TO GO BACK
TO WORK DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD
START SUBMITTING.
START SUBMITTING. MAKE SO THAT YOU ARE READY,
MAKES IT IRRELEVANT AND BY THAT
I THOUGHT RELEVANT?
YOU KNOW BUT THAT MEANS IS
BRUSH UP ON YOUR FIELD LOTS OF
THINGS HAVE CHANGED TAKE AN
ONLINE COURSE, TAKEN INTERNSHIP
DO SOMETHING TO GIVE YOURSELF
SOME TIME TO GET READY.
>> AND THE COMPLEX.
>> AND IF YOU GIVE YOUR RESUME
OUT TO QUICKLY IT'S MISTAKEN
THAT MAYBE HE WANTED TO PASS
THROUGH SEVERAL SETS OF EYES FOR
YOU FINALLY SEND IT OUT.
YOU KNOW.
YOU KNOW.
YOU KNOW. >> BUT IT'S TRUE.
>> AND ANOTHER MISTAKE THEY
MAKE IS THE ONLY APPLY FOR PART-
TIME.
TIME.
TIME. I
TIME. I THINK WE DO IT A LOT.
WE HAVE IN OUR MIND AWAY THAT
THINGS ARE GOING TO GO.
AND THEN WE TRY TO MAKE EVERY
DECISION THAT FITS THE MOLD.
BUT SOMETIMES AS WE KNOW LIFE
DOESN'T WORK LATER YOU HAVEN'T
PLANNED OUT.
PLANNED OUT. SUPPLY FOR PART-TIME AND FULL-
TIME.
TIME.
TIME. WHEN YOU GET IT AS LONG AS YOU
GET YOUR FOOT IN THE DOOR YOU
SHOW THEM HOW MARKETABLE YOU ARE
MAYBE THEY'LL SAY YOU CAN DO
ALL THE WORK THAT WE EXPECT IN
A PART-TIME CAPACITY.
>> GOOD ADVICE.
IT IS SO COMPETITIVE.
>>> NUMBER THREE, NOT LEVERAGING
SOCIAL MEDIA.
SOCIAL MEDIA. SO, THIS IS SOMETHING WE ALL
HAVE TO LEARN.
IF YOU ARE NOT BROUGHT UP IN
THE OSHA MEDIA
>> YOU ARE.
>> WELL KNOW HORRIBLE AT IT.
I JUST WENT ON TO UPDATE IT AND
I CONFUSE EVERYONE.
EVERYONE IS GRADUATING ME AND
UNLIKE KNOW.
UNLIKE KNOW. YOU KNOW THANK YOU AND THAT I
DIDN'T WANT TO BE WEIRD AND BE
LIKE A NEW JOB IS JUST TRYING
TO FIX SOMETHING.
IF YOU ARE LIKE ME THIS
INTERESTING.
INTERESTING. THE CUTS, YOU CAN PUBLISH
ARTICLES.
ARTICLES.
ARTICLES. SO IF AN EMPLOYER IS LOOKING AT
YOUR SKILLS THEY WILL SEE HOW
ACTIVE YOU ARE SEEKING MAKE
YOURSELF SEEM A LOT MORE
QUALIFIED THAN YOU ARE.
>> ISN'T THAT WHAT EVERYBODY
DOES?
DOES?
DOES? >>
DOES? >> YOU HAVE TO.
YOU REALLY HAVE TO.
>> IT IS A MUST.
ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE BEEN OUT
OF A JOB MARKET FOR SOME TIME.
AND HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU ARE
CONNECTING WITH.
CONNECTING WITH. MAYBE SOMEBODY FROM YOUR PAST
LIKE THEY CAN HELP ME.
AND THEIR REMEMBER WHAT A GREAT
WORKER I LUST.
>> EVERY JOB I HAVE EVER GOTTEN
HAS BEEN FROM SOMEBODY I'VE
KNOWN.
KNOWN.
KNOWN. THAT I WORKED WITH BECAUSE THE
NEWS WORLD IS PRETTY SMALL.
AND I WORKED WITH A PRODUCER OR
A WRITER AND EDITOR IT'S CRAZY.
>> AND IT'S A GOOD CASE POINT.
NEVER BURN A BRIDGE BECAUSE
NUMBER FOUR IS NOT ASKING FOR
HELP.
HELP.
HELP. THEY SAY LEVERAGE YOUR
RELATIONSHIP.
RELATIONSHIP. >> WHICH IS TRICKY BECAUSE YOU
FEEL BAD ASKING PEOPLE FOR
FAVORS.
FAVORS.
FAVORS. BUT, IF THEY ARE IN AN INDUSTRY
THAT YOU WANT TO BE AND ASK FOR
HELP.
HELP.
HELP. YOU
HELP. YOU KNOW HELP A SISTER OUT.
>> THEY HAD TO HAVE SOMEBODY
HELP US.
HELP US.
HELP US. THE MAC THAT'S RIGHT.
>> MISTAKE NUMBER FIVE IS
DISCOUNTING THESE SKILLS.
>> IF YOU'RE OUT OF THE
WORKFORCE BECAUSE YOU ARE BUSY
RAISING YOUR KIDS, YOU ARE
TRULY CEOS OF YOUR HOUSEHOLD.
AND THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH BETTER
WE ARE MANAGING TIME, MONEY AND
THEN YOU HAVE ONE KID AND IT'S
LIKE HEIDI HAVE TIME FOR
ANYTHING ELSE?
ANYTHING ELSE? YOU JUST MAKE TIME.
>> IT IS SO TRUE.
WE REALLY DO DISQUIET COUNT
THAT.
THAT.
THAT. AND
THAT. AND IT'S UNFORTUNATE.
I THINK IN THE LAST TWO YEARS
OBVIOUSLY WITH THE EMPOWERMENT
MOVEMENT WE REALIZE THAT THE
SKILL SET IT TAKES TO RUN THE
HOUSEHOLD THEY CAN TRANSLATE.
AND BE CONFIDENT.
>> LET'S TAKE THIS OVER ONLY
SUBMITTING YOUR RESUME ONLINE?
SO, IF YOU HAVE A FRIEND THAT
COULD GET IN A BUILDING OF
WHERE YOU WANT TO WORK I'M NOT
SAYING BREAK IN SOMEWHERE.
LIKE SCALE THE WALLS THAT HAND-
DELIVER YOUR RESUME.
>> YES.
>> YES.
>> YES. DON'T DO THAT.
YOU KNOW LIKE ON THE WINDOW.
>> I LOVE LISTENING TO OLD-TIME
PODCAST BUT LIKE I LOVE
LISTENING TO PODCASTS THEIR
FIRST JOBS LIKE 60s 70s 80s AND
THEY ARE LIKE I JUST LOOKED UP
IN THE PHONE BOOK AND I KEPT
CALLING.
CALLING.
CALLING. I GUESS MAYBE MODERN-DAY WOULD
BE YOU JUST KEEP TWEETING THEM.
>> EXACTLY.

MY DAUGHTER WOULD BE PROUD OF
ME.
ME.
ME. AND
ME. AND I
ME. AND I WAS LIKE TO LISTEN TO
PODCASTS AND UNLIKE KNOW.
SHE SAYS KERRY DOES.
AND I WAS LIKE WHAT I LOOK FOR?
THIS IS 50.
I'M LOOKING FOR PODCAST AND I
FOUND PEOPLE.
FOUND PEOPLE. >> I HAVE A LIST.

PERSONALITY.

THE LAST ONE I WANT TO SAY IS
REVEALING HER PREVIOUS SALARY
DON'T TALK ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY
MADE MOSTLY BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY
AS WOMEN WE ARE SO UNDERPAID.
DON'T UNDERVALUE YOURSELF
ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE
