DOWNLOAD EBOOKMaster the new world of work. You want—no, you need—a new job. But not just any job. The job. So you polish your resume till it shines. You apply for countless openings, tailoring your message to each. You search for the hidden job market, although it remains very well hidden. And the response? Well, it’s underwhelming. To top things off, maze-like online application systems appear designed to keep you and the perfect job apart. What’s going on? How people successfully land jobs has changed. You need help from a pro, someone who navigates career data, the labor market, and hot jobs with ease. You want a coach who will tell you what to pursue and what to avoid, and an expert who has mastered job-hunting and career change to offer wisdom gained from experience. What you need is a career coach. Better yet, several. Expert career coaches contributing to this volume include Lakeisha Mathews, Dan Schwartz, Sheila Margolis, Alisa Cohn, Michelle Riklan, Marie Zimenoff, Laura Labovich, Lynne Williams, Thea Kelley, Jean Juchnowicz, Alan DeBack, Marilyn Feldstein, Vivian Blade, David Hosmer, Barbara Seifert, and Nicole Miller. Find Your Fit guides you through answering foundational questions like: What do I want to do with my career? Where should I do it? And how do I get there? As you develop a strong sense of self-awareness, you’ll be able to identify the work environment best for you, shape your online identity, and network more effectively by focusing on people instead of openings. You’ll learn about coveted employee referrals, and how to get one at your target company. With the help of experienced career coaches, you’ll be able to handle any kind of interview. And, you’ll become familiar with the pre-employment testing and assessments increasingly common today. What are you waiting for? Your personal coaching session awaits.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn "Iron Fitness" Mark and his wife Julie, a 3 time Iron Man champion and mother, present a new way of staying in shape while staying employed. This book will help readers define their current fitness, fitness goals and then will provide a plan to help them achieve their goals through maximizing their workouts. Mark and Julie are scientific about the way they work out (as evidenced by their almost perfect anatomies) and in "Iron Fitness" they take the reader through every stage -- from aerobic, anaerobic exercise, stretching, strength and endurance exercises (yes, they're different!) to diet and the use of meditation as a means for motivation and sustenance (especially those bad days at the gym). Filled with inspiring anecdotes from their lives, this is not just a book filled with workout plans and nutritional schedules (although it has them) -- it's a philosophy for living that Mark and Julie practice, have tested on others who have had dramatic results and are providing so that others may subscribe and benefit from.
