What to do if you lose your job
A good round-up from nytimes.com.
I liked Bob Adler's advice about not burning bridges and this tidbit on how you can build your network: "Help other people as much as you can, even if it’s just by being a listener."
Michael Melcher, a lawyer, says: "Many well-educated professionals are unaware of how ineffective some of their job-search strategies are. Most job-seekers spend too much time on the Internet and not enough time networking with real people, and when they do reach out they tend to communicate ineffectively and in some cases counterproductively. "
Disagree with Stephen Viscusi's anti-networking stance: "Everyone is as scared as you. Everyone is looking for work, even when they have a job. So don’t tell your unemployed or employed friends what you’re doing, since it’s unlikely they can help you."

Tag Cloud of my Resume: Before
This shows the frequency of terms that appear in my resume: A visualization of the key words in my most important personal branding document. I'm not entirely happy with the results. It reflects an earlier me, from the early 2000s (when I was last looking for a job) and not so much who I am now or who I am becoming. In the next few days, I will rewrite my resume and create a new tag cloud.
