Helpful Suggestions from Ken Turnbull, founder of Rocky Mtn. Rogues
network:
On Reading and Asking Questions:
I often exchange emails or talk to the younger set on advice for getting
a job. I try to focus on having candidates TALK LESS of their own skills,
talents, and wonderfulness... and LISTEN MORE to answers to their "intelligent
and insightful" questions they ASK potential employers. This enables
the job seeker to understand the problem(s) to be solved. The task is
to package yourself on-the-fly, to be "part of the solution the employer
is seeking". (They already have lots of "wonderful people"...
and they still have problems.)
Impressing employers can be more easily done by "quality of questions",
rather than by "I am wonderful because ..." statements.
(Trust me on this one!)
And don't forget to read, read, read -- every day.
("Avid reader" always looks good on a resume and the investment
of time will be well worth it.)
On Business Cards:
I have used VistaPrint
in the past; they are free (except for shipping) and they are good.
I recommend you print your "individual" business card, unaffiliated
with any company, and carry them with you.
Whereas handing out a resume can be rude and creates the wrong impression,
a simple business cards says "I know the process."
A b-card is NOT a piece of promotional sales literature; it is a convenient
means to convey your contact information (KISS).
But, you can use it to expand or narrow the responses you receive.
If your title is really "President," no one will talk to you;
make it "Principal" or "Partner" or "Owner;"
this opens the door.
If you specialize in one function, state what it is: "Technical Writer
or Web Developer," etc.; this qualifies people.
If you are a generalist, provide a definition: "Regional Marketing
Manager or Branch Manager;" this means you are approachable.
Avoid "Consultant," as it is often synonymous with "unemployed."
If you want to generate conversation, use "Entrepreneur" or
"ROGUE;" it invites the question.
But, if you don't have your response path practiced and polished ... don't
do this!
