Merry Christmas Katrina!!!

This is what Katrina looked like from space, a collective mass of swirling marshmallow clouds. It is a curious and wonderful thing to observe from space. However, those who lived beneath it had a different point-of-view.

No need to show to show the devastation Katrina caused.No need to be reminded of the children crying. It was not so long ago and we do not all of us forget so soon.

This is why I have posted this comment. It is because some refuse to forget and not only that, many more still want to help. The vehicle of that assistance is a virtual class: “Job Hunting Is A Team Sport.”

In a nutshell, it is a simple strategy for finding work by teaming up with other jobseekers (as narrated by me).

If all has gone according to plan, then you downloaded this document and the audio that came with it from a link on a blog. (Maybe someone made a copy and passed it to you, or sent the whole thing to you in email. Either way, its okay with me.) The whole purpose of this lesson is to help any and everyone looking for work, but especially those displaced by Hurricane Katrina. So if you would, please do one (or all) of the following:

1. Trackback (or email) this link (and the MP3 that goes with it) to anyone and everyone looking for work, but especially those displaced by Hurricane Katrina. (Pointing it out to Career Ministries, Charitable Associations and Jobseeker Networking Groups would be a good idea too.)

2. Listen to the presentation, learn and teach others this job hunting strategy. (You have my permission as long as you do not charge any fees for it.)

3. Drop me a note and let me know if it has made a difference. I would really appreciate that.
