Book excerpt: The definitive career guide for grad students, adjuncts, post-docs and anyone else eager to get tenure or turn their Ph.D. into their ideal job Each year tens of thousands of students will, after years of hard work and enormous amounts of money, earn their Ph.D. And each year only a small percentage of them will land a job that justifies and rewards their investment. For every comfortably tenured professor or well-paid former academic, there are countless underpaid and overworked adjuncts, and many more who simply give up in frustration. Those who do make it share an important asset that separates them from the pack: they have a plan. They understand exactly what they need to do to set themselves up for success. They know what really moves the needle in academic job searches, how to avoid the all-too-common mistakes that sink so many of their peers, and how to decide when to point their Ph.D. toward other, non-academic options. Karen Kelsky has made it her mission to help readers join the select few who get the most out of their Ph.D. As a former tenured professor and department head who oversaw numerous academic job searches, she knows from experience exactly what gets an academic applicant a job. And as the creator of the popular and widely respected advice site The Professor is In, she has helped countless Ph.D.’s turn themselves into stronger applicants and land their dream careers. Now, for the first time ever, Karen has poured all her best advice into a single handy guide that addresses the most important issues facing any Ph.D., including: -When, where, and what to publish -Writing a foolproof grant application -Cultivating references and crafting the perfect CV -Acing the job talk and campus interview -Avoiding the adjunct trap -Making the leap to nonacademic work, when the time is right The Professor Is In addresses all of these issues, and many more.

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column.

Download or read book Federal Applications That Get Results written by Russ Smith and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No doubt about it. The key to getting a federal job is how well applicants write a job-winning application. But times have changed and so have applications federal agencies will accept for employment. As the federal government continues to decentralize hiring to the agency level, it also has adapted hiring methods similar to those used in the private sector. While only a few months ago most agencies required applicants to complete the Standard Form 171 (SF 171), today agencies accept two other application forms - OF 612 and federal-style resumes. If you want to get a federal job, you must understand how to put these unique applications together with maximum impact. Here's the perfect guide to understanding the federal hiring process as well as the key application forms now accepted by various federal agencies. Six chapters and eleven appendices outline what federal employers look for on the SF 171, OF 612, and federal-style resumes; major writing principles that grab the attention to evaluators; the best language to use (KSAO's) for each section of your application; how to customize your application for each agency; how to best prepare a "mail-in" packet and follow-up; and which resources can help you get the job you want. Federal Applications That Get Results includes several examples of completed SF171's, OF 612's and federal-style resumes; special chapters on putting together an application packet and distributing it to agencies; and treatment of applications and veterans preferences. Useful appendices include pay schedules, sample forms, critical sections from the all important X-118 Handbook, and addresses of the Federal Job Information Centers. Designed for both white- andblue-collar employees, this intelligent, well-written, nuts-and-bolts guide should be in every federal job seeker's library.
