The Job Search Survival Kit – Job Search And LinkedIn Tips. Part 38

Getting The Upper Advantage No Matter The OddsBy: Anthony Hines

A Reminder Of Who Am I & Why Am I Sharing What Helped Me?

Who Am I….I am a hardworking guy who, like many others, found himself out of work during the economic downturn in 2010. After a long battle of wrong turns, job search strategies that led to no where, and dead end leads, I decided to take a more strategic approach to my job search. Like anything else in life, I needed to treat my search like a full-time job and create a plan that would allow me to stand out above the competition.

Why Am I Sharing What Helped Me…because I quickly realized that to handle an event like that is to focus on what you can control and share the experience to help others. I believe that an experience not shared is a lost opportunity in life, and that smart people learn from their mistakes and smarter people learn from other people’s experiences.

Step By Step By Step By Step.

BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING MORE.Get Your Resume Checked Email your resume to [email protected] and tell them I sent

you. That way you will get a free comprehensive and detailed report of how your resume looks and flows. Go for it because without a great resume, you have no chance of getting any job much less a great job. The turnaround is quick and the service is stellar.

Read My Job Search Tip Document First .These are the Free documents that tell you everything that I did to get activity & visibility in my search. Email me at [email protected] and I will send you them.

Skills Or Jobs That Get No Respect

The next group of slides will discuss jobs or skills that you may take for granted or get no respect that can make you money and or get you back to work fast.

I will tell you the tip or idea and let you know why I like it to help you in dealing with the process.

Remember, I am by no means a professional and never claim to be. I am just giving you things as I see them to help you to see through the ‘fog’ and get ahead in your career.

I hope my ideas help you out and help me to end unemployment one person at a time.


With the movement to offshore jobs and take services out of the local environment there is a giant gap that is created.

It is called “Client Relations”. Not all of these offshore companies can

properly deal with the US client that the services are provided to.

Perhaps a job for you is the client relations person who is the liaison between the two.

I bet you have done this in a secondary role in other jobs. Why not highlight it as a new skill?


Are you bilingual or able to speak multiple languages?

Why would you not highlight that as a skill?

Aren’t most companies presently international or are looking to become international?

How about the local population, couldn’t that customer base benefit from this skill?


Are you in transition and really good with your hands building or fixing things?

Get the word out that you can do “Handyman” work and watch the offers just flow on in.

People have no time to do this type of stuff as they are working so many hours, they are exhausted when they get home.


Laugh all you want about driving for UBER or LYFT.

People around the world are making solid money on their own schedule driving people or packages around.

No money is transacted in person, it is all online.


How many hours are you online and you don’t get paid for it?Check out Pennyhoarder.com .They have all kinds of offers that you can signup for that make you money in ways you maybe never thought possible. I heard about this site via my Facebook friends but it seems pretty cool at first glance.Of course, search and or ask around and make sure that they are legit, but at first glance, they look to be. Check out the offers. You never know.


People think that the job of “Office Manager” is no longer needed.

Not so fast… If you need one tell me how hard it is to find someone who knows how to do it and can do it well.

If you have the skills, you may want to think about looking into those type of jobs.


How about “Personal Assistant” .

Those jobs can be very important and satisfying jobs but they are not for everyone.

That said, if you have the skills to do it, you never know once the trust is built where that can lead to.

Yes, not for everyone but does it fit you?


People like to discount the value of the federal government as a place of employment but don’t forget, the “fed” employs many people across the country and you don’t even need a college degree to get some of the jobs.

Take a look at USAJOB.gov and see if you qualify. There are classes given to teach you how to properly apply for a job on the site. Take the training if you can as it can help you navigate the site and make a slow process a bit faster.


Do you know a neighbor or friend that has a small business and could use your skills?

Never hurts to let them know that you have some free time and can help them out. Even if you are not paid a lot of money, you can gain experience that you can list on your resume and LinkedIn profile. It also shows hiring managers that you have initiative. Plus, if that small business grows, maybe you can stay and grow there.

Never assume that it can’t happen for you. It happens to people every day. Why not you?

Thoughts For You To Ponder

I want to reiterate that I am not a professional and only providing you with things I did that helped me out during my own job search.

I do these presentations because the job search process has a lot to do with attitude and outlook. That’s on you. Excuses are for losers. Be a winner and take charge. You can do it because you have done it before I bet.

Make sure you individualize any all of the information provided on this or any of my presentations. My ideas are to guide you and help you to understand concepts.
