Job Development Overview

My job development philosophy can be summed up in two points:
  1. Get your money straight.
  2. Be helpful.
Map your job development strategy to your budget. If you need personal finance help, here are some great posts on managing your budget during unemployment.




Being helpful is shorthand for aggressive networking. The goal is similar to business development, look for creative ways to develop win-win relationships with new partners and/or build on existing relationships.

Yesterday's Reverse Indirect Networking post was one idea. Over time I hope to bring you many more. But if you have the budget to give time to developing these relationships, rewards will cycle back and generate opportunities for job development.
