| Publisher Description: Reboot Your Career: A Blueprint for Finding Your Calling, Marketing Yourself, and Landing Great Gigs gives readers an insight into the changing world of work; then tools to help identify their calling, their values, and their work-style; then tools to help create compelling resumes and social media profiles; and finally, tools for networking and job hunting in the 21st century. In the introduction, you will get to grips with the essentials of the career mindset, the most important megatrends affecting the world of work, and which career myths might be holding you back. In section one, you will understand yourself better through a series of profiling exercises - this helps uncover the "authentic you", where your talents belong in the world, where you will flourish, and what your passions and values are. In section two, you learn to brand yourself online, on social media, and in formal descriptions (such as resumes and LinkedIn profiles). Since your personal brand is based on the authentic you, you can create these with passion and verve - making you stand out from the crowd because what you say and who you are are aligned. In section three, you see why most job hunts fail - the hidden job market. This leads to counter intuitive suggestions on how to look for gigs, and how to network based on 21st century science. In short - Reboot Your Career covers "who am I and what am I passionate about", "how to brand and present myself", and "how to look for gigs." |
