A Great Job Search Blog, Plus What I Help People Do
Of all the job search blogs I follow, my current fave is C.M. Russell's Secrets of the Job Hunt.
I was going to choose one recent post of his to highlight, but they're all great - just go check out the blog. The advice is up-to-the-minute and covers everything from networking to resumes to why you should be nice to the receptionist.
I especially enjoy a blog with audio posts and interviews. (Hmm...note to self!)
I'm going to let go giving so much job search advice in my coaching business and in my blog. Bloggers like C.M. who are focused intently on job search do a great job covering that area.
After a stint of coaching clients through job search processes and helping them with interviews I'm realizing that what I'm truly passionate about is helping people find the courage and the gumption to decide what they really want in their careers.
I love working with people way before they get into job search mode. My favorite clients are the ones who feel a nagging tug that they want something different or something more from their careers, but they can't nail it down or don't know where to start answering questions such as:
- What do I want?
- What's next for me in my career?
- How will I find career happiness?
- How do I start figuring this all out?
Getting clear myself about the people I best serve is part of the process of finding my own career happiness.

I agree, Heather, "Secrets" is a great job search blog. There are others as well, including Guerrilla Job Hunting, that bear mention. (I won't use this as an opportunity to toot my own horn).
Keep up the great stuff!

Hi Heather, congrats! And as we say in the marketing communications business, determining your niche audience and how you can use your unique value proposition to serve it better is the first, but most significant step, toward healthy sales.
