In the Loop

Not so long ago, we didn’t choose what career we wanted to pursue—it was usually chosen for us. No wonder we have such trouble making great career decisions. We need help, but we don’t always admit it or seek it out. In the Loop is about sorting through the noise to find truths, useful habits, and new ways of thinking to achieve professional goals. Katherine Street, a career coach and consultant, busts common career myths and provides a framework so you can: • overcome obstacles that frequently derail careers; • identify fundamental steps to help your career flourish; • create a résumé that highlights qualities and skills; and • recover quickly when career dreams go awry. The author shares more than sixty exercises for career development, a résumé builder, and an outline for writing convincing job applications. There is an entire chapter dedicated to what employers look for when selecting candidates. Once you’re in the loop, you’ll be inspired to make a difference every day you go to work. Moreover, others will want to be around you because you’ll make work fun. It will be a great feeling.
