Warm weather and the family is away. Yes, I've been to the gym a few times this week  AND it has been movie time.

"I saw, "The infiltrator" with Bryan Cranston (lots of tension) at a local theater and "Straight Out of Compton," on HBO. Fun Stuff!

Storm Clouds: Avoiding Layoffs

Because we are in the middle of a US Presidential election, I feel compelled to start by saying that what I am about to write about at the beginning of this article is not political.

It is data offered by the government.

If I were to tell you that:

Personal income tax receipts are down by 11%
Corporate income taxes are down 16%
Excise taxes are down
State income tax revenues increased by the smallest amount in several years
U.S. state personal income taxes fell sharply in the key revenue month of April due to lower investment returns from weaker equities and energy prices in 2015
Federal income tax revenue fell 17% in June
Job openings fell by 345000 in May 2016
There is inflation adjusted negative wage growth



No BS Job Search Advice Radio

Every day, I release a new short podcast that lasts 5-10 minutes.


It is listened to a little more than 3000 times per week.

Listen to an episode or two and decide if you want to subscribe from   iTunes, Stitcher, and others. 

Please give the show a great review!


Gender Bias in Hiring




Freakonomics Radio did a provocative podcast on this subject called, What Are Gender Barriers Made Of."

I summarize a few of the points but go listen to it on your own.

The skills needed to find a job are different than the skills needed to do a job.

That lack of knowledge of job hunting may cost you great opportunities because you aren't well-enough prepared--your resume isn't getting results, your interviewing isn't as good as you think at is, salary negotiating . . . well, you aren't even getting close to the point of getting to a negotiation.

Half the year is over and summer is a great time to change jobs because there is less competition.

While in beta,  JobSearchCoachingHQ costs $24.99 per month ($64.99 quarterly)  for advice and information from me and others.

Currently, over 400 pieces of content are available and easily organized including all of my books and guides to job hunting, plus curated videos, podcasts and articles.

You can ask me questions through the site or we can speak for 10 minutes or so you can get my input on things.

In addition, you receive $25 off coaching, resume critiques, LinkedIn profile critiques (or both)

Join JobSearchCoachingHQ.com and start taking positive action to head off more job search struggles
