<p style="text-align:left;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> </span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">I find many folks asking what they can do to change their job search, so that they can land the job they need.  I have two things, one CHANGE.  Do something different.  If you have given up on Job boards, try them again.  Update your Linkedin profile, go to job groups, such as Pink Slipped Mixers,  <a href="http://www.pinkslipmixers.com/">www.pinkslipmixers.com</a> People Between Jobs Club <a href="www.peoplebetweenjobs.wordpress.com%20">www.peoplebetweenjobs.wordpress.com</a>,  or Saddleback Jobs Ministry,  <a href="www.vision4work.org">www.vision4work.org</a>.  Point is Try all things.  The more channels you try the better the chance you have.  Good Luck and good hunting.</p>

<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>Tip O’ The Day:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Get out of the house. Do something fun.  There are many thing in the So Cal area that are free, or low cost.   You need to do this for mental health.  You may think about  volunteering.  Local libraries, churches and local government are all in need of people with skill.  While you may not get paid, you will develop contacts, and keep your skills sharp.     Also it give you something to get up in the morning for.  Check out your local libraries.  My city library in Fontana, offers free computer course, and free Wi Fi.  I found it was a good place to go to in the day to hang out and look on the internet for jobs.</p>

<p>Last night in our class, we talked about using the Service Provider function within LinkedIn. You can find this function by going to the top navigation bar and clicking on More&#8230; You will get a drop down menu on which you want to select companies. On the right side of the Companies screen you will see Service Providers listed under the search box. Click on Service Providers and you can search on existing providers or add yourself. To add yourself, click on request a recommendation you will be prompted to enter what category of service provider you are and then identify people in your network from whom you can request a recommendation.</p>

<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>Out of Work For Over A Year? How To Bounce Back</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">It happens to the best of us. You hit a bump in the rocky road of your<br />
career and find yourself out of work for longer than you&#8217;d like.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Being out of work for an extended period of time does more damage than just<br />
a gap in your resume. It affects your self esteem, how you view yourself,<br />
and what you believe you can bring to the table.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Everyone has doubts at some point in their career; this is your time. Know<br />
that you can and will get past this bump.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>So How Do You Bounce Back? Follow These 5 Steps Below.<br />
</strong><br />
<strong>1.. Remind Yourself That This Is A Moment In Time.<br />
</strong><br />
Your career runs for multiple decades. That&#8217;s a long period of time. What<br />
this means is sooner or later a setback will happen in your career. It&#8217;s<br />
just the way things happen. All cycles have up&#8217;s and down&#8217;s and this is your<br />
down. The good news is it&#8217;s all up from here. Remind yourself that a job<br />
will be there, and is waiting for you, right around the corner.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>2.. Reacquaint Yourself With Your Accomplishments.<br />
</strong><br />
When was the last time you looked at your resume? And when you do, does it<br />
seem like your accomplishments were achieved by someone else? Just because<br />
you have not performed a function in a while doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t perform<br />
it anymore. It&#8217;s like riding a bicycle; you never forget how.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Spend quality time with your resume. Read the bullets slowly. Remember the projects you<br />
worked on and the people you worked with to obtain these results. Remind<br />
yourself that these are your accomplishments, which are something to be<br />
proud of. Just because it&#8217;s been a while, doesn&#8217;t mean it didn&#8217;t happen.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>3.. Create In Your Mind What You Want To Happen Next.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">I believe that people get stuck in the day-to-day doldrums of life when they<br />
don&#8217;t have something to look forward to. You may not know when your next job<br />
is coming, but you can get ready for it. Ask yourself what you want next.<br />
Where do you want to work?</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">What location? What type of people? How much do you want to be making?</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">When you can see what you want, clearly and<br />
powerfully, you can get it. I find that when people are out of work for a<br />
while, they can&#8217;t see themselves in their jobs anymore. The amount of time<br />
that has passed only matters to you. Visualize what you want so you can get<br />
back to work again quickly.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>4.. Don&#8217;t Give Up.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Most people don&#8217;t take discouragement well. When they first lost their jobs,<br />
they had vigor and excitement. They got up everyday and had people to call<br />
and job search related activities to work on.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Over time, the momentum andactivities diminished.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">That caused them to stop or slow down. Don&#8217;t let this<br />
happen to you. You only need one job and one person to give it to you. The<br />
work you put in now will bring results; you just haven&#8217;t seen them yet. A<br />
job search is not an instant gratification pursuit. It&#8217;s a process that<br />
brings results over time, on its timetable and not yours. So, you have to<br />
keep going.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>5.. Believe In Yourself.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Most of the time, we are our own worst enemy. We tell ourselves why<br />
something cannot be done before someone tells it to us first. This approach<br />
keeps you safe from rejection and failure, but it also holds you back. This<br />
economy may be forcing you to get out of your comfort zone and into new<br />
territory, all great for your personal growth.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">(Even though it does not feel so great most of the time.)</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Many people who come to me want to be challenged<br />
in their career. It&#8217;s what&#8217;s missing in their jobs and their lives. Well,<br />
this is your challenge. Will you rise to the occasion or let it get the best<br />

<p style="text-align:left;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">SOMETHING TO PONDER ON:</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">G. K. Chesterton:</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">It is not bigotry to be certain we are right; but it is bigotry to be unable to imagine how we might possibly have gone wrong.</p>

<p style="text-align:left;">Need to post files and other thing on the internet and give a link instead of attaching?  <em>Use BOX.NET</em>,  I use Box net to post the job list for this email blast and for my blog.  The first 1GB is FREE.  This is one of the better services on the internet.  Take advantage.  Between Word press and Box net, you have some good powerful tools to make you look better then the next job search.. Also both of these can be a solution for your boss when you land a job. Here is the link:  <a href="http://www.box.net/">http://www.box.net</a></p>

<blockquote style="text-align:left;"><p>An upcoming event on February 4<sup>th</sup> sponsored by Career Bridge Builders.   First, this is an AMAZING opportunity to hear from 2 Senior Leaders from Raytheon and L3 Communication from the Aerospace industry on their vision for the future, trends in technology and career opportunities.   It is rare to have this level of access to these decision makers.  Further, they are also bringing VPs of HR that will have job opportunities!  This is an amazing event that is FREE and OPEN TO EVERYONE.</p>
<p><strong>REASONS NOT TO MISS IT:</strong></p>
