>>BRUCE HAMILTON: WE’VE SEEN THE UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS AS A RESULT OF THE PANDEMIC THEY ARE
STAGGERING AND WITH THE VIRUS
CONTINUING TO SPREAD AND THE
ECONOMY STAGGERING MORE THAN
HALF OF AMERICANS FEAR LOSING
THEIR JOBS. AND THERE’S A
SEGMENT OF THE COMMUNITY THAT
BELIEVES THEY ARE TOO OLD TO
FIND A NEW CAREER LET ALONE
A JOB HIRING EXPERT MICHAEL
GOLDBERG FROM HIRING TRANSFORM
DURING THE AGAIN HERE ON THE
MORNING SHOW AND MICHAEL.
GOOD MORNING. HOW ARE YOU
VERY WELL, THERE HAVE BEEN A
WAVE OF LAYOFFS FINANCIAL
LOSSES ARE MOUNTING AND THERE
IS NO DOUBT PEOPLE OR
WORRIED. IT’S A PROBLEM.
>> IT IS A BIG PROBLEM IS AND THEY HAVEN’T REALLY PLAN FOR THIS. I THINK BY NOW PEOPLE
ARE KIND OF BRACING JUST KIND
OF SEE WHERE IT’S GOING TO JOE.
AND I REALLY THINK THE BEST
THING YOU CAN DO IS IS IS HAVE
A STRATEGY. BEFORE
YOU EVEN START LOOKING FOR JOBS
TO HAVE A REAL JOB SEARCH
STRATEGY
IN PLACE. OTHERWISE YOU’RE JUST
GOING TO BE APPLYING TO JOBS IN
THE NEWS AND YOU’RE YOU’RE
RESUMES GOING TO BE GOING INTO
WHEN THEY CALL THE AFRICAN
TRACKING SYSTEM BLACK HOLE.
SOME GOOD TO BE SEEN MOST ARE
NEVER SEEN OR REPLIED TO SO YOU
MENTIONED THEY DON’T HAVE A
STRATEGY.
>> AND THEY DON’T KNOW WHERE DO
YOU BEGIN WHERE DO YOU BEGIN
DEVELOPING THAT STRATEGY.
>> SO THE WAY I COACH MY
CLIENTS IS REALLY BASED THIS
2 THINGS FIRST YOU’VE GOT TO
START WITH YOURSELF YOU HAVE TO
REALLY LOOK AT THE VALUES, WHAT
ARE
YOUR VALUES, WHAT’S IMPORTANT
TO YOU WITH THE TYPE OF
POSITION YOU WANT TO DO.
HOW DO YOU.
CUTTING PLAN WHEN YOU’RE
LOOKING AT
YOUR CONNECTIONS ARE YOU
LOOKING AT MEANINGFUL
CONNECTIONS THAT
CAN HELP THE TOOLING DINNER TO
2 FAMILY FRIENDS. THEY CAN
CONNECT YOU TO
MAYBE SOMEBODY IN A TARGETED
COMPANY LOT OF PEOPLE DON’T
HAVE THAT
TARGETED COMPANY TARGETED
INDUSTRY TARGETED COMPANY SIZE
AND THOSE ARE THE THINGS THAT
THEY NORMALLY RECOMMEND THAT
THEY START WITH SECOND
COMPONENT IS STRUTTING OUT
YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS TALKING
TO SOMEBODY YESTERDAY YESTERDAY
AND BASICALLY.
THEY HAD AND THEY HADN’T
STARTED THAT PROCESS YET BUT
THEY WERE FEELING DOWN SUITORS
SUGGESTED TO THEM.
JUST WRITE DOWN ALL OF YOUR
ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND THEN.
STARTED DIGGING A LITTLE
FURTHER INTO THOSE SUCCESSES
THAT
YOU HAD RIGHT OUT THE STORIES
IN THE STAR MISS ADELE A
SITUATION TASK ACTION AND
RESULTS. WE WRITE THAT OUT YOU
HAVE A NICE STORY TO TELL
DURING THE INTERVIEW PROCESS.
HE ALSO SUED MATION YOU CAN PUT
ON YOUR RESUME.
>> SO WHAT’S THE BIGGEST
MISTAKE PEOPLE MAKE. THEY JUST
STARTED PLAYING
RIGHT AWAY. THEY THE JUMP ON
THE MEGA JOB BOARDS.
AND WE DON’T KNOW WHAT THOSE
ARE AND THEY SHOULD AND THEY
JUST START APPLYING AND THEY
THINK WELL,
YOU KNOW AND THANKING BE THE
FIRST YOU KNOW TENNIS YOU HAVE
TO BE IN THE FIRST 10
APPLICANTS. I HAVE A GOOD SHOT
OF GETTING RECOGNIZED HER CALLS
AND THAT’S NOT
NECESSARILY TRUE. ALSO IN
PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY DON’T
REALLY KNOW WHAT THEY’RE TRYING
WHAT THEY WANT IN
TERMS OF IN TERMS OF THEIR
NEXT POSITION. THEY THEY JUST
START APPLYING FOR EVERYTHING
THAT THEY SINK THEIR REMOTELY
QUALIFIED FOR AND THAT ALSO
KNOW THE BIG MISTAKE AND IT’S
ALSO A WASTE OF TIME.
>> YEAH, HOW ABOUT FOR THOSE
WHO SAY I’M TOO OLD TO FIND A
NEW CAREER I CAN’T REINVENT
MYSELF THAT NEGATIVITY IS NOT
GOING TO HELP HERE.
>> NO THAT’S THAT’S A GREAT IS
AGE ISN’T REAL.
YES.
BUT THE WAY TO GET OVER THAT IS
TO KEEP YOURSELF BOTH
PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY FIT.
AND YOU KNOW AS THEY SAY AGE IS
A NUMBER BUT
THAT PEOPLE CAN TIME 55 YEARS
OLD. BUT THE ACTUAL SIZE EVERY
DAY EAT HEALTHY
AND REALLY WOULD A LIGHT WOULD
YOU SHOULD BE DOING WHEN YOU
WANT TO REINVENT YOURSELF IS
TEACH A LOOK
AT THE SKILLS THAT YOU HAD IN
PREVIOUS SHOWS AND THEN IF YOU
WANT TO REINVENT YOURSELF.
LOOK AT THE SKILLS THAT ARE
REQUIRED IN THAT
NEW POSITION AND WHAT’S GREAT
IS WHAT YOU WRITE ALL THAT OUT
YOU HAVE THIS NICE LIST AT THE
AT THE READY. YOU’LL SEE THAT
YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A LOT OF.
COMMON AND YOU KNOW COMING
SKILLS WITH THE POSITION YOU
WANT TO
GO INTO I’M NOT SAYING YOU’RE
NOT GOING TO GO FROM IRAQ, IT,
YOU ROCKET ENGINEER. TO
YOU KNOW, NOR FROM A
ROCKET ENGINEER TO TO A BRAIN
SURGEON, YOU KNOW IF YOU WILL
TO DO THAT RIGHT.
SO THINK REALISTICALLY ABOUT
WHAT SKILLS YOU HAVE AND HOW
YOU CAN TRANSFER THAT TO
ANOTHER TYPE OCCUPATION.
>> SO HOW ARE THEY BEST
APPLICABLE. SO YOU KNOW YOU
ALSO FIGURE OUT HOW DO YOU BEST
SELL YOURSELF AND MOST TIMES
THESE DAYS. IT’S VIRTUALLY.
>> THE BEST WAY TO DO THIS IS
REALLY SICK
THINKING ABOUT YOU’RE YOU’RE
YOU’RE STORY SUE THE OLD THAT’S
THE FIRST QUESTION EVERY
INTERVIEW TELL ME
ABOUT YOURSELF AND THAT’S WHERE
A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL DRONE ON
FOR ABOUT 10 TO 15 MINUTES IF
THEY HAVEN’T REALLY THOUGHT
ABOUT IT BECAUSE YOU’RE GETTING
NERVOUS. SO THEY START RAMBLING
SO THE BEST WAY TO TELL YOUR
STORY IS TO THINK SUCCINCTLY
ESPECIALLY WITH THE TELL ME
ABOUT YOURSELF TELL ME WHO YOU
ARE WHAT
YOU DO. YOU KNOW WHAT YOU BRING
TO THE TABLE WHICH THAT UNIQUE
SUPERPOWER THAT YOU BRING TO
THE TABLE NOBODY THAT SOME
PEOPLE MAY HAVE. BUT THE YOU
HAVE AND YOU’RE CONFIDENT AND
WHEN YOU PRACTICE TELLING THAT
STORY AND IT SHOULDN’T BE NO
MORE THAN 2 TO
3 MINUTES LONG. SHE JUST
TALKING ABOUT HIGH LEVEL
ACCOMPLISHMENTS, YOU’RE
INTRODUCING YOURSELF AND THEN
YOU’RE ENDING WITH THE LAST
STATEMENT IT’S GOING TO REALLY
PRESSURE
VIEW SIR.
>>BRUCE HAMILTON: SO HERE’S
WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU THAT
NOBODY ELSE CAN MICHAEL
GOLDBERG. SOME GOOD ADVICE AND
HOPEFULLY IT WILL HELP SOME OF
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE WATCHING
GHT NOW GET THAT J
