    Welcome! I hope this class helps you better define what you're looking for in a future job and gives you the tools necessary to go out and get your dream job. I've loved my journey, and I've gained significant insights that I believe are indispensable in the job-hunting and career development process.

  • My Why4:36

    We are taught many useful things in school, but seldom taught HOW to get a job! How do you know the job is right for you? How do you navigate the job market?

    You're going to spend a lot of time at your job. Make sure it is the right one for you.

    These principles are seldom discussed in school. I learned through trial and error, and I hope to build a bridge for you so you can make meaningful progress in your career.

  • Quotes to Live By3:21

    I have a lot of respect for Steve Jobs. These are a few of my favorite quotes that have shaped the way I think about a career.

Requirements

  • Have a desire to get a great job
  • Be willing to look at life from a new perspective.
  • Want to make a unique impact in the world.

Description

You are unique. You have unique talents and abilities. You see problems from a unique perspective, and you need a job that is as unique as you are.

Maybe you know what that job is... and maybe you don't. Either way you've come to the right place.

Through this course you will learn how to:

  • Choose a job that matches your interests

  • Comfortably network your way into the company you want to work for

  • Write a compelling resume to get you in the front door

  • Get past the resume and show them your unique attributes

  • Guide the interview to play to your strengths

Your education taught you a lot of skills, but it probably did not teach you how to get a job. Getting a job takes some know-how. It's not hard. It's just that we aren't properly taught how to take that next step after we graduate from school. Those who apply the principles discussed here have a world of opportunity open to them.

I am an engineer, and most of the examples I use are geared towards engineering. However, these principles apply to all fields, and the perspective you'll gain from this course can significantly shape your future.

This Course Includes:

  • Over 2 hours of awesome content

  • 12 Assignments that will change your perspective on the job hunt

  • Example work to get you going in the right direction

This course is no joke. If you're serious about getting your dream job, this is the place to start.

Who this course is for:

  • High school or college seniors looking to enter the work force
  • Working professionals looking to move to a more meaningful position
  • Students interested in valuable internship opportunities
  • Those who just need a change of pace
