Hello readers! We’re finally getting a break from the snow storms here in the Northeast. Although the weather as been well below freezing, causing the foot or so we have left to be covered with a layer of ice. It’s funny watching our dogs walk across the snow in the back yard. Fortunately March, and the thaw that it brings, is right around the corner.
The beginning of this month, we ran Laid Off or Fired? You’re Not Alone (Part 1) as the lead article. It was the most-read article in that newsletter. In this issue you’ll find Part 2 of the four-part series. Here eight career experts offer advice on how to avoid the biggest mistake people make when they are let go.
Stay tuned for the remainder of this series which covers everything from how to handle the initial trauma to how to alleviate an employer’s concerns when you’ve been out of work for several months.
Please take a minute to answer our February Office Romance poll when you visit the website. So far over 60% of respondents say they would “Never” date someone from the office. What about you? We’ll give you the final results in an upcoming newsletter.
We had a great response to the Goals-centered newsletter we sent out last week. Our next Special Edition will focus on “dealing with difficult co-workers.” Other upcoming topics include interviewing skills, personal branding, resume writing, communication and more. I hope you’ll find the subjects we’ve chosen helpful in managing your career.
Thanks again for your continued interest in career-intelligence.com. I hope you'll enjoy this issue as much as we enjoyed putting it together. As always, please contact me directly at arichmond@career-intelligence.com with any thoughts, comments or suggestions.
It's your life, make the most of it :)
