All we want for Christmas…

Merry Christmas!!

It has been just over a month since my last full post.  It has been great to keep up on all of you through Facebook and Twitter.  I wanted to again give an update on what God is doing in our lives. And show you what our Christmas list looks like!

48 Days to the work you love – Do they like me? Do I like them?

The interview is something that will separate the men from the boys in terms of whether or not you are comfortable in your own skin.  The interview is the place where the job war is one and lost.  Having a great interview I learned takes practice and there are actually things I can practice in order to interview well such as; making eye contact, lean forward, and smile.

48 days to the work you love – 6 job offers in 10 days

Now that I am back from a wonderful missions trip to Costa Rica with 27 other of my close friends.  I can get back to my vocation safari!  Chapter 6 of the 48 days book goes through several myths of the job hunt. One of those is that the resume will be the only thing that will get you a job.  There are other things that go into a successful job search like the interview and the job searcher to know and understand their unique gifts and abilities.
