Kathleen’s vast experience is impressive as you can tell in the depth and detail of her answers. It is by far the longest interview on this blog yet because it is hard to edit content that is vital to job seekers. Here is a table of contents to our discussion:

  • The mindset of job seekers creating his or her own opportunities
  • The importance of knowing what they want to do in their career
  • What should motivate a job seeker to pay attention to career goals and aspirations?
  • What does “success patters” mean and how it relates to the job search?
  • Using Linked In effectively
  • The Highland’s Ability Battery
  • What does AIR (Advice, Information, Referrals) mean and how it applies to job seekers?
  • Networking and how critical it is to do
  • Career Services at colleges and how under utilized they are
  • The breakdown of using three different languages–reluctant, suspicious, or negative

Enjoy our conversation!

 

About Mark Anthony Dyson

I am the "The Voice of Job Seekers!" I offer compassionate career and job search advice as I hack and re-imagine the job search process. You need to be "the prescription to an employer's job description." You must be solution-oriented and work in positions in companies where you are the remedy. Your job search must be a lifestyle, and your career must be in front of you constantly. You can no longer shed your aspirations at the change seasons. There are strengths you have that need constant use and development. Be sure you sign up to download my E-Book, "421 Modern Job Search Tips 2021!" You can find my career advice and work in media outlets such as Forbes, Inc., Fast Company, Harvard Business Review, Glassdoor, and many other outlets.
