A few loose thoughts while I take a lunch break:
- Message to employers: If you are hiring a contractor for 3 months or less, don't reject candidates who have jumped around too much!
- Message to candidates: Make sure you demonstrate some of the required skill sets on your resume before submitting for a job!
- Message to job counselors at the Dept. of Labor: Take a minute to actually evaluate your client before handing out job hunting advice!
- Message to career counselors at institutions of higher education: Aim your students/grads at realistic opportunities to avoid them becoming frustrated and complacent!
- Message to everyone (including myself): Strive for excellence each and every day!
