Six Second Jobs Podcast Episode 1 - Introduction

Welcome to Six Second Jobs Podcast. I am your host Joel Quass. In my first episode, I am going to give you an overview of my subject, which is landing a job. I will focus on four areas:

Interviews
Career Coaching
Linked in Profiles
Cover Letters

Ok, so I will focus on five areas. I will also talk about Six Second Resumes and other Self-Marketing Tools.

To land your dream job, there are only two things to work on. One is getting interviews, and two is getting job offers. Everything I will talk about relates in one way or another to these two goals.

I will share a little about my dog Rikki in every episode. She is a rescue beagle we adopted a year ago. She was shot in February, after getting out of our yard. She was dragging her leash because we were getting ready to go for a walk. (She’s alive and recovering after surgery)

I will talk a little about why I am Pod Casting. I spent over 35 years in management, sitting on the other side of the desk. I have read close to 5,000 resumes and applications and have hired thousands of employees. I

I just retired from 27 years as an Assistant General Manager for a big box retailer (not SAM’s) and want to give back. There have been so many people over the years that have mentored me, whether they knew it or not, and I want to pay it forward and help others.

I have written two books and I will spend some time discussing them as it relates to landing a job.

I will spend time talking about the Five Steps to Rapid Employment. As a career coach, I help clients become success conscious and take control of their future. We talk about:

Learning How to Ride the Emotional Roller Coaster
Defining Your Goal
Using Value-Based Resumes and Self-Marketing Tools
Creating a Six-Second-Action Plan™
Taking Action and Mastering a Few Self-Marketing Skills

My intention is to invite guests onto my podcast, getting those with experience to share their perspectives on topics. And I look forward to feedback from you, the listener. Your ideas and suggestions are welcome and will focus my podcast where it will help the most people.

I’m looking forward to sharing what I know, to getting to know you, and to hearing that you will be sitting in your new hire orientation soon.

To your continued success,

Joel
