Happy Fall! Even though the leaves aren't changing yet according to the calendar Fall has officially arrived. Vacations are over and most associations have resumed their monthly meetings.
Whether you're happy in your current position or looking for a new one, it's time to step up your networking efforts. Just make sure that your efforts are not having a negative impact on the people you are trying to impress (Are You A Negative Networker?).
If you're looking for a new job you're in luck. Any recruiter will tell you that Fall is one of the best job search seasons. Just make sure you're ready. Update your resume (How To Create A Resume That Gets Results) and get ready to knock them dead in the job interview.
To sail through your next job interview make like a girl scout: be prepared. Before you sit down with a potential employer practice answering the questions that every interviewer always asks. You know the ones, they often begin with "Tell me about yourself." (What's Behind The Five Most Difficult Interview Questions?).
Fall is also the perfect time for an image upgrade. After a summer of dressing down, it's also time to take a look at your wardrobe. Spend a day going through your closet. Try to update your wardrobe with a few new pieces (Best Buys For Fall 2005).
Thanks for your continued support, please help us continue to grow by forwarding The Career Intelligencer to your friends and colleagues.
It's your life, make the most of it :)

By Annette Richmond
All month you've been looking forward to tonight's event. Several people you'd like to do business with will be there. This should be a great opportunity to make some new connections.
