Is the Resume Still Relevant in the 21st Century? [Updated]

Resume still relevant? When I graduated from college in the late 1970s the resume was not just relevant but it was the cornerstone of your job search.

What I Learned About My Career from Selling a Vintage Fiat

Selling a Vintage Fiat? When I was a young man in late 1970s, I wanted a convertible. I was also cheap! The first car I bought was a 1972 Triumph Spitfire from a woman I worked with at IBM. It needed a clutch and a throw out bearing. I had just received my engineering degree […]

Problem to Solve

October 18, 2017

Find a Problem to Solve. That Will Lead to a Job.

Find a Problem to Solve? I have had a number of discussions with clients and client prospects in the past year about finding a problem to solve rather than looking for that next job. As many of us reach the end of a career, we start looking for what is next. Our natural instinct is […]
