    Looking for a job? I know what it’s like and how hard it can be. Economically displaced, downsized, laid off, let go, or just plain fired – let’s face it, it’s a brutal shock. Losing your job can be a gut-wrenching experience that leaves you feeling helpless, hopeless, and even panic stricken.

      Introduction

      Looking for a job? I know what it’s like and how hard it can be. Economically displaced, downsized, laid off, let go, or just plain fired – let’s face it, it’s a brutal shock. Losing your job can be a gut-wrenching experience that leaves you feeling helpless, hopeless, and even panic stricken.

      When it happened to me, I was totally unprepared and had no idea what to do next. It was a new and frightening experience about which I knew nothing. I had never been let-go before in my life. Quite frankly, it really sucked!

      But I was lucky —my company spent the bucks to put me through a professional outplacement program and it turned out to be my salvation. Without the skills, training, and support that it provided, I have no idea where I might have ended up.

      However, not everyone is fortunate enough to have access to professional outplacement counseling. So, I would like to share with you what I learned in the hope that it will also help you.

      Before we get started, please take the time to read the Job Hunter’s KwicList all the way through before you start doing anything. Some of these tasks and activities should definitely be done before you make that first phone call or send that first e-mail, Facebook post, Twitter, etc.

      One more piece of advice: consult other books and read as much as you can about doing a job search. Getting information from a variety of sources will give you a better sense of perspective, and hopefully, judgment. It will help you make sense out of what has happened to you … and how you can fix it. Most of all, don’t give up on yourself — you can do it if you stay with it.

      Best of Luck!

      Whether you think you can or you think you can't do a thing, either way, you are right.     – Henry Ford

      1. Develop Your Strategy

      1.1.You must have a strategy detailing how you will structure your job search, yet simultaneously allowing you to deal with the day-to-day uncertainties that lie ahead.

      1.2.Preliminary considerations — start with developing answers to the following:

      1.2.1.Job categories & types — which jobs or career paths best suit me, i.e., match my skills, credentials, and personality? What work would I really like to do? What work would I be willing to do if I can’t find the job I really want? You should
