Job Search Expert Paul Hill, Author of The Panic Free Job Search Talks with Radio Host Dr. Zara Larsen


Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) September 17, 2012

Job search expert and author of the Panic Free Job Search Paul Hills interview with Dr. Zara Larsen, host of the Circles of Change show on 104.1 FM The Truth, in Tucson, Arizona, has now been released through a podcast.

It is an honor to be interviewed by Dr. Zara Larsen who is dedicated to helping people achieve transformational change said Paul Hill, Chief Instructor of Transition to Hired. Her mission to offer positive, pragmatic advice and often unconventional wisdom on personal career development is directly aligned with my philosophy as well as the career advice in my book.

This popular show, Circles of Change is in its fifth season and approaching 300 shows and 700 podcasts. Every Saturday a diverse set of guests spanning business and non-profit leaders, public servants, consultants, coaches, academics, subject matter experts, artists, and people with insightful and inspirational stories are invited to give others an encouraging boost.

During this interview Paul Hill shares the power of knowing how to get hired by:

Unleashing the power of the web and social networking,

Creating a focused message,

Doing a targeted employer search,

Being a candidate and not an applicant,

Getting in front of decision makers using networking and marketing letters

Getting your resume pulled out of HR black hole by a decision maker

Most job hunters are told to network but job hunters need more than just being told Go out and network, they need to be shown HOW to do it properly in order to eventually get hired in a job they actually want rather than having to settle for what is available to them through the online job application lottery said Hill, Because radio has time constraints we can not explore job search networking at its fullest but in my book I demonstrate step by step to job hunters how to do professional networking and how to use social networking sites properly to get hired.

Circles of Change: Where Your Path is Created by Walking On It” showcases weekly conversations with national experts, featured guests and entertaining live call-in and email questions that can help listeners take the right steps to make more of their careers and life, and how to discover, strive for and achieve whats next.

The show offers pragmatic advice and unconventional wisdom, stressing personal accountability, taking action, and how playing to what one is motivated to do and be, leverages ones natural giftedness said Dr. Zara Larsen, President of The Larsen Group: Architects of Change. By investing in personal development, taking risks, and allowing for a journey, people can circle back and pull upon their lifetime of experiences and connections to define a new career trajectory.

The superior audio quality and durability of the RDX Series allows you to build bridges that expand the capabilities of individuals and teams, enabling them to get the job done right, fast, and safely. That means powerful productivity that’s perfect for:

Education
Maintaining order and enhancing student safety are priorities for any school. RDX Series radios keep everyone in touch, from teachers and administrators to crossing guards and maintenance personnel. That enables a quick response to any situation, often preventing small problems from escalating into bigger ones.

Manufacturing
Success in industry depends on two things: efficiency and responsiveness. Clear communication, often in noisy environments, is essential to avoid downtime–and to enable the fastest response to production problems or injuries. The RDX Series delivers. Its rugged construction stands up to industrial environments, and its long battery life meets the demands of overtime and multi-shift operations.

Hospitality
Excellent service and customer satisfaction are the keys to loyalty and repeat business. RDX Series radios keep your staff connected, from the front desk and concierge to event planners and maintenance personnel. That means a more productive staff and fast response to guest needs, special events, spills and emergencies.

Retail
Responsive service is essential to sales and customer satisfaction. RDX Series radios make responsiveness easier to provide, whether it’s an answer to a customer’s question, a price check, a clean-up or an emergency. With clear, constant communication ensured, customer satisfaction can be taken to the next level.

Property Management
With RDX Series radios, building managers, maintenance technicians, groundskeepers and security personnel can respond fast to tenant needs or emergencies, minimizing costs and enhancing tenant satisfaction.

Construction
To keep any construction project on track, you need timely coordination from management to foremen, subcontractors, and individual tradespeople. RDX Series radios make it easy, helping keep projects on schedule, avoid errors, meet deadlines and keep costs on budget.

Excellence in Design; Exceptional Durability

Rugged and reliable, the RDX Series radios undergo rigorous testing in the design process using U.S. Military 810 C, D, E and F Standards–so you can rest assured they hold up under demanding conditions. These tests are designed to simulate the very harshest environments, including:

  • Blowing Rain
    Steady rainfall and wind for 30 minutes on every surface.
  • Salt Fog
    48 hours of exposure.
  • Vibration
    Up to nine hours of exposure to vibration that simulates the rigors that a radio could undergo while being carried or transported.
  • Blowing Dust
    Six hours of blowing dust on all surfaces.
  • Shock
    18 shocks with a minimum G force of 40 G each.
  • Temperature Storage
    Multiple hours of exposure to storage temperatures as low as -67° F and as high as 160° F.

IP54/55 Standard
In addition, the RDX Series radios are tested to IP54/55 standards, highly demanding tests for water and dust resistance. The IP54/55 tests include subjecting the radio to a high-speed, high-volume shower from all directions for three minutes. In this test, the radio must endure conditions so harsh that a human being could not survive them.

With their Military and IP ratings, the RDX Series radios have proven they’re rugged enough to handle the harsh conditions they’ll be exposed to in daily use by your customers–and provide the maximum uptime that helps drive productivity while providing exceptional value.

I’ve been a big fan of how WCCO TV is using social media for a while now. Here’s another reason I’m a fan: The work of CCO’s Director of New Media, John Daenzer, resulting in, most recently, a feed of live tweets about the Red River flood embedded into their coverage online.
