The Job Search Checklist

By

One of the biggest questions I get asked by people is: What are the best steps to job search and figure out what’s next in my career?

I get it. I like plans, outlines, and to-do lists and from working with 100+ clients, I know I’m not the only one.

I’ve noticed that when people are going through career confusion and stress, simply *knowing* the outline of steps can provide motivation and hope.

To help with this, I’ve created The Job Search Checklist. Enter your email below and it will be sent to you instantly.

Whether you want to explore a new career or you know exactly which job and company you want to work at, almost all of the 52 steps I outline apply to both.

Yup, that means that it *is* entirely possible to explore new careers AND job search at the same time.

What’s even more wonderful about these steps is that once you build the skills to implement them, you can use them over and over and over again.

This is pretty great considering that most of us will most likely have many more job and career changes in our future (I’ve had at least at least 4 career changes and I’m only in my early 30s).

Figure out what’s next in your career, take action, and get it. Without relying on resumes or gross networking.

Guidance Counselling for Adults sold out so here’s what I’m doing

By

GCA sold out earlier today. In 5 days – wow – I’m so excited to work with this small group of people! Since then, I’ve been thinking of other ways I can help. Based on requests I’ve had from people over the past week, here’s what I’m thinking…

But first…

Want to be notified the next time GCA opens in Fall 2018? Sign up to get notified:

Want to be notified when I have 1:1 career coaching availability? Sign up below:

 

So…

In the past week since I opened GCA, I’ve had a few people contact me for 1:1 support with:

  • Interviews (interviews that they have scheduled or to work on their interview skills)
  • Salary negotiation (for raises, promotions, new job offers, general practice)

Alas, I am currently booked full and can’t offer those 1:1 services right now. 

Here’s what I’m doing..

What I’m going to do instead is offer my two self study courses on these topics at a discounted, sliding scale rate when you get them together by Thurs Jan 25th at 3pm EST.

It sounds so cliche but I’ve really never offered a discount before so this is a bit of an experiment.

What’s included?

1. Ask for More (regularly $147-$247 CAD)

  • A salary negotiation course for women
  • When to ask. What to ask for. Concrete strategies and exact language to help you confidently ask for more and negotiate a raise, job offer, or promotion.
  • Includes a self study course and workbook ​
  • *Women includes anyone who self-identifies as a woman.

2. ​Nail Your interview (regularly $129-$229 CAD)​

  • Learn how to anticipate interview questions, frame your experience, and nail your interview.
  • Includes self-study interview prep course​ with exercise 

Sliding scale investment

Until Thurs, Jan 25th at 3pm EST, you can get this course bundle for a sliding scale price of$219-$319 CAD (just type in the price you’d like to pay).

Depending on the price you choose, that’s a 20%-30% discount.

For the sliding scale…

  • If you’re unemployed and finances are an issue, feel free to pay $219
  • If you’re employed and currently have a decent salary, please pay to $269
  • If you’ve got an amazing salary, please pay $319

And if you identify as a person of colour (POC), queer, trans, chronically ill or disabled, please feel free to pay the lower end of the scale.

I do not require any documentation for your sliding scale selection so please don’t take advantage of it. It’s there for folks who need it.

Want the bundle?

Click here to get both Nail Your Interview AND Ask for More.

What happens after you buy the bundle?

Within 24 hours you’ll be sent the login details for the courses and then you’re good to go! You choose the sliding scale price, no questions asked.

Questions?

Did you buy my Ask for More or Nail Your Interview self-study courses recently? Want the bundle discount? Email me and we’ll make it happen.
