Download or read book Job U written by Nicholas Wyman and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2015-01-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get ready to relearn everything you thought you knew about what a successful career path can look like. Today, unemployment hovers at a near-record high, yet 3.5 million American jobs remain unfilled. Why? Because companies simply cannot find people with the skills they actually need. The good news is that this skills gap represents unprecedented opportunities for every person seeking a successful and exciting career. But these opportunities can’t be found inside the walls of the traditional classroom. Instead, they lie in the myriad of educational options that provide the technical, vocational, and soft skills on demand in today’s workplace, such as: -Professional certifications: Start your career faster in fields like bioscience aviation, culinary arts, and medical technology. -Associates degrees: Increase earning potential through inexpensive 2-year programs in subjects like civil engineering, environmental science, education, and nursing. -Apprenticeships: Earn while you learn under the direct supervision of a skilled expert. Far beyond the artisan trades, today’s apprenticeships can be found at companies like Volkswagen and Siemens. -Occupational learning: Refresh or reboot your skill sets through on-the-job training or online education. In Job U, you’ll learn about these paths to rewarding occupations; where to find them and how to parlay them into the best paying job in any field. And along the way, you’ll meet individuals of all ages who have attained their “dream jobs” through a non-traditional education: from an emergency air paramedic, to a lead mechanic of a racecar team, to an engineer of complex gas turbine generators, to a bestselling cookbook author. Whether you are recent high school or college graduate, or well along in your career journey, Job U will help you find your way to a more secure and prosperous future.

Download or read book Back to the Basics written by Phillip Moon and published by Blue Bird Digital. This book was released on 2019-07-01 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: **THE EBOOK VERSION OF THE PREVIOUS HARD COPY BOOK WAS RELEASED IN 1999. AS SEEN ON NUMEROUS AUSTRALIAN MORNING TV TALK SHOWS AND HEARD ON ABC RADIO.** I haven’t been able to find a written guide for School Leavers, Disabled people seeking employment as well as long term unemployed people, wanting to know the absolute BASICS of how to prepare themselves when looking for work, which is critical for success. In addition, most books printed have long unclear or difficult words that totally confuse people, and basically, many Authors take for granted that everyone knows the basics of looking for work. This book covers many different avenues when approaching job hunting. I also include examples and ideas to think about while you look around for work or consider changing positions. Especially with areas such as obtaining work before leaving school like in supermarkets and other small businesses. I may be an Australian however as you read through you will quickly see that the suggestions etc., I propose can be used anywhere in the world. My diverse working career enabled me to pass on my knowledge to School Leavers, Disabled people and unemployed. Many of you would have been in the situation of having people from different organisations discuss with you, about either being unemployed or looking for work. If you have ever had to deal with this scenario you will understand how disillusioned you can get with the system. My numerous employment skills gained from various areas, enable me to understand many involved personal problems relating to the unemployed not to mention with my own disabilities, and limitations. I have confidence in that there would be many people out there who would like to ask the basic job questions, however, feel that they would be seen as silly questions. My opinion is everyone needs to talk to someone sometime, the discussion does not have to last for a very long time, but just get it off your chest. Nonetheless trying to find work is scary and I hope my book will help you secure that great job!
