prepare your “emergency career toolkit”
Career Coaching 360 has a post enumerating the things you need in an “emergency career toolkit” to rebound from career setbacks:
- A professionally critiqued resume.
- An “Interview Prep Kit” including a polished portfolio, briefcase and power suit.
- List of high powered references.
- A Deep and Wide Professional Network.
- Your Plan “B”.
The Houston area is lucky enough to still be doing relatively well (employment-wise) when compared to the rest of the country. But tougher times are coming our way. Be prepared.
