Learn the Secrets of Effective Job Transition with This Indispensable E-Book


At last, without confusing lingo or HR-babble, a clear presentation of the steps to get the job you want.

Upshift Now! is a straight-talking guide to success in any career move. You get valuable tips and guidelines, and a roadmap that helps you avoid wasteful detours and stalls.
Written in a crisp, no-nonsense style, Upshift Now! takes you through the job transition maze, laying out secrets that lead to success in a fiercely competitive process.
Here are a few of the chapters:

The Cartography of Success: Career Management

Your career consumes the largest part of your waking hours and shapes your habits of thought. It's part of your self-image. It can also bestow huge rewards. This book shows how to navigate your career and maximize those rewards, and ultimately achieve the life you want.

The Art of the Resume

A resume is essentially a marketing device. It's a biography too, but a very special one: brief and almost all highlights. Your thesis is: I am the person to hire. I'll give you the best payoff. The entire nature of the resume flows from that. Upshift Now! contains critical checklists, and its tips on language, focus, style, and format will help you pass the screener's 15-second test and win interviews.

The Executive Underground: Networking

Employers advertise for less than 30 percent of all job opportunities. Most of the rest go to networkers, often people who have actively uncovered them. Upshift Now! reveals the art of learning about a job before anyone else, and explains how to make valuable contacts and nurture them throughout your career.

At the Threshold: The Interview

Preparation is the great secret of interviews. It heightens your poise and magnetism. Upshift Now! offers invaluable tips on preparation, as well as many other techniques to make a strong impression. It also tells you how to apply them at just the right time.
