The Secret First Step of the Job Search

The Secret First Step of the Job Search

Before you find a job, it is important to know how you’ll leave your current one.  Do it right, and you could make the next 10 years of your career a lot easier.  Do it wrong, and the penalty is severe: no chance of re-employment, no reference letter, and no respect from your peers – who could be tomorrow’s stars.

I’m constantly amazed at the number of people who take leaving a job so lightly.  Every month 33,000 people search “How to Find a job” in Google. Know how many people search “How to Leave a Job”? 390.  That’s it!

You’re lucky you stopped by Jobacle today, because now you are aware of the first REAL step of the job search: leaving a job.  What appears as “the end” is really the beginning.  Maybe not for the new job you just landed, but for the one after it.  And the odds are that there will be a next job!

Look out for yourself and pick up a copy of The Exit Guide: How to Leave a Job the Right Way.

Aside from resignation letter templates, goodbye letter samples, and Exit interview tips, you’ll also get an outline on how to handle your last two weeks at work.  Here’s an audio sample that’s packed with career tips and advice.
