Are you faceless and nameless to your targeted employers -

Are you faceless and nameless to your targeted employers - Did you play with Lego blocks as a kid? (Or, maybe you still do? I have a friend whose brother an adult has a house full of Lego structures. He never outgrew his Lego obsession.) Earlier this week, I shared thoughts about how to break down your job hunt, inspired by a Lego big apple I saw while visiting New York City in June. I took another photo during that visit that made me think. This big, faceless, naked Lego guy was in a window. I couldnt help but think that this figure represents a lot of job seekers; the ones who are not doing anything to make themselves stand out. The job seekers who believe applying online to hundreds of jobs is the same as a job search strategy. The employee who just does what it takes to get by and doesnt think about his or her career plans or path. Take a look at yourself; are you this Lego figure? Indistinguishable from your peers, with nothing significant to attract a hiring manager? If you are plain, it is going to be very difficult to land an opportunity. Think about what you can do to distinguish yourself. Start here put some SIZZLE in your job hunt before summer is over!
