[rehab] [Jobs] looking for help

[Dick Davis]

Hi Everyone,

Recently I have been using information from Guerrilla Job Search
International in my careers classes at BLIND, Inc. to see how well it works
with blind people.  My students have responded positively, so I think it is
fair to recommend their site to the rest of you.  The link is
http://www.gm4jh.com/.  There is a lot of free information on their site,
and even the stuff you can buy is pretty inexpensive.  

One advantage of their materials is that they are either sound files or text
files that are basically free of odd formatting or graphics.  JAWS reads
their PDF files well, or you can convert them easily into straight text.  I
recommend starting with "Guerrilla Job Search Secrets", which you can either
download or purchase on CD for the cost of shipping.  

While you may have heard some of the ideas already through Richard Bolles or
other modern job search gurus, there is a lot of new information and new
marketing methods that look like they will work well.  The logos idea is
pretty intriguing.  They offer a money back guarantee on their resume
course, and they do a decent job of following up and sending you free
information.  Their headquarters is in Edina, MN, which is not too far from
our center.

Hello,

One thing I find from List Serves is it allows persons to say things that
they would not necessarily say in an open faced conversation. Also in true
"Business Decorum", some things are better responded to in private.

I find when I read such posts as this, the best response is to reply "off
line" to give the author of this original post some advice without
embarrassment. I am certain that the recipient of the email would feel much
better and thankful of the manner of the reply then    to basically be
lambasted for making such a mistake.

I believe we are here to help one another, not to tear one another down when
an error in judgment is made.    Often, before I respond, I think about how
I would feel if   something I   am writing was said to me. 

Michelle
