Article: New Networking Strategy: Get Naked (Tim's Strategy)

Posted by: "Eric Nilsson" ericnilsson@earthlink.net   eric_s_nilsson

Networking Strategy: Get Naked

At first blush, you might find this a bit unnecessary. But after you sit
with it for a few minutes, I think you'll come around. To my way of
thinking.

The normal advice for networking is to go in strong. Confident. Be that
person someone wants to hire. Tomorrow.

And normally I'm right there with you. It is the correct posture for most
people. Not cocky, of course. But sure enough of your skills and abilities
that folks will want to spend time with you. That you are worthy of an
initial five minutes of networking. Instead of someone else.

But what if you are not in that great place everyday. You are in a rut of
epic proportions. And genuinely need help from your network. And instead
of asking for help you act like you don't need it. It's all good, you say.

What then?

Well, after the networking event is over and you've high-fived all those
people you always act confident with. You head to your car and sit there.
Just sit wondering what you are going to do next. Because even though
everyone got the impression that you are well organized, have a full
schedule of coffee meetings and a slew of new leads. The truth?

You aren't. You don't. And don't.

And the problem is you are the only one who knows the truth.

And because you put on such a good performance, everyone is spending their
networking time with others. Some who have asked for help or at least
opened up a small window to what was really happening in their job search.

I hear from some of the people who are feeling a little stuck. I respond
with an invite to say hello by phone. To help with a few new ideas. During
my commute to work.

Some call and some don't. But at least they are reaching out to someone.
And recognize in themselves that not all is rosy. At least not right now.

So the idea here is to take off the heavy coat that's hiding the real
situation. If you need help, ask for it. And when someone answers the
call, pick up the phone. And then say confidently "Hey, if you've got a
minute. I could really use your help with something."

But let me be clear. This is not your invitation to soapbox your job search
issues. With a loud and public cry for help. Because some will see that as
it is. A train wreck.

If your pride is preventing you from saying so. Take this advice.

And get naked.

Article: IRKSOME BEHAVIORS (Find the Perfect Job Newsletter)

Posted by: "Eric Nilsson" ericnilsson@earthlink.net   eric_s_nilsson

Thu Feb 11, 2010 1:04 pm (PST)



IRKSOME BEHAVIORS

* UNWILLINGNESS TO LEARN: Why? WIth so many resources out there, why
do some people not invest in themselves? Or seek out new information to
expand their horizon? Whatever it is you do for a living, did you know how
to do that right out of the box? Of course not. What about stuff around the
house? Wiring? Cooking? Gardening? Playing guitar? You read. You learned.
You paid for lessons. Why are you not doing that with your job search?

* RUDE HIRING AUTHORITIES: If you were referred to someone in a
company, especially if that person actively and verbally referred you, and
then you follow up, they should get back with you. Even if it's to say
thank you, we're not hiring. Or thank you, please submit your resume on
line. Even if they have their admin get back with you. To stay silent is
rude and unprofessional.

* IRRESPONSIBLE RECRUITERS: Who lie. Who send your resume out
without your permission. And by the way, not doing that should go without
saying, but it's good to say it anyway. "Please make sure you contact me
prior to submitting my resume." Recruiters who submit you with your
knowledge, then never return your call. Probably because the company dumped
them.

* PROCRASTINATION: I don't care if it's fear of change, you hate to do
your resume, you're afraid of the unknown. Get about it. You're the only
one who has the power to change your life. It's a choice. Your choice.
You can a) go forward into the unknown, learn, fall on your face, learn, get
better, continue to learn, grow, and change your circumstances, b) complain
while things get worse (because they never stay the same - you're either
moving forward or moving backward), c) choose to not do anything now and
know why you're choosing that (rather than complain) or d) drive your car
off a bridge. Pick one.

* WHEN I FORGET TO ATTACH THINGS: It's an extra few minutes, more
clicks, and extra email in your box. Everyone does it occasionally. I do
it a lot. Although knowing I do it, I like to think I'm getting better at
not doing it. I hope anyway. When I have too much gonig on, I tend to move
too fast and drop details

* CAPITALIZING THINGS THAT SHOULDN'T BE: I see it in resumes. I see
it in ads. What is with this trend? It drives me nuts. This was the norm
in the 1700s, but it's 300 years later. So why are people still
capitalizing things that aren't proper nouns? (Real examples)

* Responsible for Project Management, Business Operations, and
Organizational Change (if those are actual departments, they get capped,
but my guess is they are activities, and thus they do not get capped).
* Institute a Common Framework (The Common Framework as a title, but a
common framework as a general description)
* Driven by the Onboarding process (I can't begin to even understand
this one)
* Building relationships with Transformation Team Leadership, Business
and Operations leads and counterparts, and Vendors (how do you build a
relationship with leadership? Leaders, yes, but leadership? and by what
stretch of the imagination does vendors get a capital V?)

* HYPOCRISY: Companies who are interviewing require things they'd
never stand for if they were on the other side of the desk. Just remember
that. All of you looking for a job will someday be employed, many of you in
positions where you make hiring decisions. Remember what it's like to look
for a job and deal with all that stuff and try not to do it to others now
that you're working.

* INVESTING IN YOURSELF: Nothing is for free. Yes, I know there is a
lot of free information out there, but nothing is for free. People who make
their living doing something don't give everything away. And you get what
you pay for. Let's take career coaches. Lots of opportunists and bogus
ones out there that seem to be simply reselling other's information. So
sign up for a lot of newsletters, see who you like, then take some of their
courses. Go a bit more in-depth. Pay for the information because what is
free is only the tip of the ice berg. What you pay for is what will help
you more effectively.

* CHARGING YOU TO FIND YOU A POSITION: Last year a bunch of companies
- and people - sprung up, charging asm uch as $10,000 to find you a
position. In the case of one woman, all she does is open the door for your
resume. She doesn't even function as a go between. I don't know for sure,
but some of these people might have been recruiters who can no longer get
company clients. I know a lot of recrutiers who are very busy with client
companies because they're very good recruiters. So I only have one thing to
say: don't do it.

* HATING RECRUITERS: Not smart. Many are very good and many aren't.
Learn how to tell the difference. Since I was one for 22 years, I have a
teleseminar I do on it. Recruiters get paid by the company. If you sent in
your resume and didn't hear, they have no obligation to follow up with you
or return your call. They're on commission - when, and if, they have
something for you, they'll call you. Trust me on that. If they never call,
it's probably because your experience isn't recent, your job record is
spotty, your expectations are unrealistic. The exception is if they've
submitted you to a client company. Then they should call you back even to
close the loop.

* LOOKING FOR A MAGIC BULLET: There isn't one. Networking alone
isn't going to get you the job in under 3 months. A generic cover letter
may be easy, but it's not going to get your letter read. You can change
your resume every time someone tells you why the one you have is bad, and
you probably will until you learn what the components of a good resume are
and stop listening to the people who want your money so they can do it their
way. That includes the latest trends: company logos on it, narrative
versions (NEVER!), and by category (just another version of functional,
which was never a good option anyway. If you knew what I know about some
resume writers, you'd be a tougher sell. Constantly switching directions
and focus and methods trying to find the one that works best is only going
to zig zag you to taking twice as long - if not longer - to get where you're
going.

Article: Want to Tweet Yourself to a new Job? (InternsOver40)

Want to Tweet Yourself to a new Job?

<http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_MQYqokt5jJk/S3OOncVEcKI/AAAAAAAACGU/iPOyBlP_63M/s
1600-h/twitterindex.jpg>
http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_MQYqokt5jJk/S3OOncVEcKI/AAAAAAAACGU/iPOyBlP_63M/s3
20/twitterindex.jpgWould you believe that you can tweet yourself to a job
opportunity 140 characters at a time? It's been done! Statistics show that
job search networking is much more effective when you make "loose"
connections - touching base with people beyond your immediate circle whose
networks and contacts are much different from your own. With over 3 million
users, Twitter offers an unparalleled opportunity to create an extended
network.

Not convinced that Twitter is actually a high-powered job search tool? Read
on to learn how Twitter can uniquely position you for job-hunting success!

What Can Twitter Do For You?

1. Afford access to other professionals in your field. When you follow
industry leaders, you'll know who spends time with them, what conferences
they attend (and what they think of the speakers!), what they're reading and
what is on their minds. This is great information to leverage for your
search.
2. Provide exposure and credibility as well as personal and professional
relationships when you connect to others in your industry.
3. Offer you a venue to demonstrate your expertise and share information in
quick, pithy bursts of wisdom. This is perfect if you don't have the time or
energy to create a blog.

Unique Aspects of Twitter

1. It is casual and immediate and a great place to "meet" informally.
2. You'll find an array of people on Twitter, including CEOs, top-level
executives, hiring managers, recruiters and everyone in-between! It's
one-stop shopping for your networking needs. You'll be surprised to find
that stars in your field (mentors) may follow you if you reach out to them!
3. Unlike Facebook, where it is kind of creepy if you start trying to
"friend" people who are connected to your contacts, it is acceptable (and
expected) to follow people on Twitter because another friend or colleague
does.
4. It forces you to be brief. Coming up with your "Twit-Pitch" - what you
have to offer in 140 characters or less - will help you clarify your value
proposition. Remember: less is more!

Convinced? What To Do First?

1. Brand yourself professionally. If you are planning to use Twitter for a
job search, set up a designated profile and account. Choose a professional
Twitter handle using your name or some combination of your name and
profession that sounds good and is easy to remember. For example, JaneSmith
or MarketingExpertJane.
2. Take time to create a professional profile that will attract your target
market. If you don't have a website, link to your LinkedIn profile.
3. Before you follow anyone, start posting some tweets! Don't succumb to the
temptation to share your lunch menu.Tweet about an article, an idea or share
a link of professional interest to your targeted followers. Do this for a
few days. It may seem strange to be tweeting when no one is following, but
you may be surprised to gain an audience before you even try. Once you have
a great profile and a set of interesting tweets, start following people in
your industry. Aim high! Follow stars - some will follow you back.
4. Continue to build your network by using Twitter Search and Twitter's Find
People tool. Manually review profiles and use Twubble to help you find new
people to follow. Use directories such as Twellow and TwitDir. Grow your
network slowly - you don't want to follow 1000 people and have only 30
following you. That makes you look spammy, not professional.
5. Give, give, give! Think about what you can do for others. Don't blatantly
self-promote. Instead, help promote others. "Retweet" (pass along
information someone else shared, giving them credit) - you will earn
followers and friends this way. Those who know (and like) you will become
part of your network and will be willing to help you. (See picture for an
example of when I retweeted @AnitaBruzzese's post.)

Sustain Your Twitter Network

1. Twitter doesn't have to be very time-consuming, but if it's going to be
part of your job search strategy, make a point to keep up with it by sending
out something useful every day.
2. Read what other people write and respond. Join conversations and start
your own.
3. Don't be afraid to send a message directly to a star in your field.
Simply address your tweet to @their Twitter name, and they should receive
it. (Be aware that Twitter isn't 100% reliable, so feel free to try again if
you don't hear back or have reason to believe your message wasn't
delivered.)
4. Use the direct message feature if you have a private or personal note.
Remember that the recipient may respond publicly, though.
5. Feel free to tweet that you are looking for an opportunity. (See below
for a success story!)

People Who Found Jobs and How!

1. Jessica Smith found her current "dream job" as Chief Mom Officer simply
by tweeting to approximately 400 followers, "Anyone looking for a marketing
or biz dev person?" Within minutes, she received a DM from the founder of
Wishpot.com, asking for a phone interview that resulted in a perfect
position!
2. Kyle Flaherty used Twitter to find a job that moved him and his family to
Austin, TX from Boston. He tweeted to approximately 650 contacts that he had
left his job. He included a link to a blog post outlining his interest in
connecting. He explains, "Within hours I had several emails, IMs, phone
calls and tweets about the topic and it actually ended up that I took a new
job." Follow this link for an interview with Kyle's new boss, Pam O'Neil,
who explains how she and Kyle used Twitter to fill the position.
3. Heidi Miller, the "Podcasting Princess," found a freelance project using
Twitter by tweeting updates about her job hunt. Many of her colleagues
questioned the wisdom of being so open about her search; they worried she
look desperate or foolish. However, the ends justified the means.

As more and more get involved (dare I say addicted?) to Twitter,
opportunities to leverage this tool for job search networking will grow
exponentially. Don't be the one left behind! Get on board and start
connecting for success!

Twitter to help you search for a Job. Follow Miriam on Twitter

Article: Is Using "and/or" in a Sentence Just Plain Dumb? (WritingMa

Posted by: "Eric Nilsson" ericnilsson@earthlink.net   eric_s_nilsson

Thu Feb 11, 2010 1:10 pm (PST)




Is Using "and/or" in a Sentence Just Plain Dumb?

A colleague of mine-an expert online editor and web content manager-sent me
this e-mail last week:

Leslie -

Can you give me some style guidance or a citation that says "using 'and/or'
in a sentence is just plain dumb"? I was editing some web pages and ran
across this construction at least four times. I wanted to tell the writer to
NEVER do this again but wanted some source material. I struggle to keep our
pages from sounding too "researchery" or "lawyery" and, given where I work,
that's tough.

Always interested in being helpful, and in stamping out anything that's just
plain dumb, I did some quick research online to see if style guides or other
editorial experts also dislike and/or. Here's what I found:

* The Writing
<http://www.techcommunicators.com/pdfs/style-diction.pdf> Styleguide and
Dictionary of Plain English, published by Duncan Kent & Associates, advises
writers to avoid using and/or where either and or or will do.
* The UC Berkeley iNews Style Guide
<http://inews.berkeley.edu/guide/style> tells writers to avoid the slash,
avoid and/or, and to just use or.
* The American
<http://www.oup.com/us/samplechapters/0841234620/?view=usa> Chemical
Society's Style Guide places and/or in Chapter 1 under the heading "Words
and Phrases To Avoid," stating that writers should replace and/or with
either and or or, depending on their meaning.
* In the American <http://www.aaanet.org/publications/style_guide.pdf>
Anthropological Association's Style Guide, the and/or advice is simple:
"never use." And leave it to anthropologists to put the advice in a chapter
titled "Orthography."
* The APA
<http://www.psychwww.com/resource/APA%20Research%20Style%20Crib%20Sheet.htm>
Research Style Crib Sheet doesn't waffle either: "Do not use and/or."

So the verdict is in: and/or is JPD (just plain dumb). Do you agree?
Comment here or e-mail <mailto:Leslie@ewriteonline.com> me with your
opinion.

Article: Proofreading Tips for Finding Errors in Your Own Writing (W

Posted by: "Eric Nilsson" ericnilsson@earthlink.net   eric_s_nilsson

Thu Feb 11, 2010 1:10 pm (PST)



Proofreading Tips for Finding Errors in Your Own Writing

Reading the newspaper each day, I catch frequent errors in grammar and
usage. It's easy for me to find errors in newspapers-and, in general, in the
writing of others. What's hard is finding errors in my own writing. By the
time I get to the proofreading stage, I've looked at the document so many
times that I see what I think is on the page, not what's actually there.

My failsafe remedies for finding errors-asking someone else to proofread or
putting the document aside for a while before a final proofing-aren't always
practical, especially with tight deadlines.

Feeling like I've exhausted my arsenal of proofreading techniques, I've
looked to experts (including the <http://ualr.edu/owl/proofreading.htm>
Online Writing Lab at University of Arkansas, the
<http://www.unc.edu/depts/wcweb/handouts/proofread.html> Writing Center at
the University of North Carolina,
<http://grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/proofreading.aspx> Grammar Girl) for
advice beyond the tried-and-true (read aloud, use spell-check). Here are
some new-to-me techniques for catching errors.

1. Proofread for only one kind of error at a time. For example, proof
one time for punctuation (or even commas) and look for spelling errors in
another read-through.
2. Check for spelling errors by reading the document backwards. Start
with the last word on the last page and work your way back to the beginning.
Because content, punctuation, and grammar won't make any sense, your focus
will be entirely on the spelling of each word.
3. Print in an unfamiliar font so that the document looks different.
Try a smaller font to force you to read more slowly and concentrate.
4. Make a list of your proofreading gremlins. Are there words you
frequently misspell? Do you capitalize headings inconsistently? Do you
forget end quotes or the closing parenthesis? Proofread one time for your
common errors.

Do occasional typos and other mechanical errors really matter? In a recent
Washington Post column on the
<http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/01/15/AR201001150
2419.html> increase in grammar and usage errors in the newspaper, ombudsman
Andrew Alexander quotes a reader on how these errors erode credibility: "If
they don't care about basics like grammar and spelling, how much do they
care about factual accuracy?"

Add your proofreading tips to this list. Leave a comment or
<mailto:marilynne@ewriteonline.com> send me an e-mail.
