I loved all the points you mentioned; the fact that one should take coaching from experts is a good option, It's always a good idea to find help in making a good resume. Thanks for sharing! Hi Jacqui,

There is no doubt about the fact that finding an appropriate job is becoming hard these days especially when you have a tough competition in the interview session. I loved all the points you mentioned; the fact that one should take coaching from experts is a good option, It’s always a good idea to find help in making a good resume. Thanks for sharing!

I recently had an interview for a job that I thought would be so easy (both the job and the interview). I was so unprepared -- all these questions came my way, and I had no good answers! Needless to say, I didn't get the job, and I will be practicing my responses for the future. I totally agree about practicing the pitch.

Because the likelihood of receiving several rejections before getting the esteemed job offer is great. Learning how to not only manage, but surmount that roadblock to move onto the next great (right) gig is integral to surviving, and hopefully thriving in our job search and careers! Thanks!

As with the Olympics, competition abounds in job search, and through dedicated practice, the odds for success DO increase. So, even though (like with the Olympics), you may not earn the 'gold,' your likelihood of rising to a new level of performance WILL increase each hour, day, etc. that you put forth the focused effort to improve. Thanks for your compliment on my writing, as well! Much appreciated. Jacqui Hannah,
