18 to 30 year olds, take note – and then action.
Brazen Careerist (BC) has evolved to position itself as the #1 site for career management among Generation Y…you know who you are.
Watch this to get a better idea of what the new and evolved BC is about.
As one of the founders, Ryan Paugh, shared with [...]
(Networking for Loners revisited)
Shawn Graham’s post about networking over at Courting Your Career got me thinking about – well, networking. Admittedly he makes a valid point about how following sports is a great strategy to break the ice particularly with people from different backgrounds. I agree that as a Latin American if I were a [...]
This is a big leap of faith for me.
For the very first time since this blog was launched I’ve reached out to ask a reader to write a guest post. This reader is one of those highly talented but unassuming people who likes to fly below the radar. That’s why he has asked me [...]
“I knew that the quicker I moved on the better position I’d be for the next opportunity.” Ben Graham, 1st Australian ever to play in the Super Bowl, after he got fired three times in four months.
Even during an economic downturn, finding meaning in our lives is not a privilege reserved only for a select few – it’s everyone’s responsibility.

On my latest trip to South America I met a remarkable woman who I’ll call Maria.
Maria took care of my grandfather for many years until the second that life left him a week ago at age 96.* As thankful as I am for her unconditional support and care for grandpa Pipo during his last years, [...]
Even if I may not always agree with what Dr. Sullivan has to say over at ere.net (like what he wrote about talent swapping), his out-of-the-box thinking is quite refreshing. Recently he wrote an article about proximity recruiting. Proximity recruiting is about finding candidates through face-to-face interactions – as opposed to non-physical recruiting including job [...]
It has been an active end of year.
My first book is in the editing stage, my posts are appearing on more and more places in the blogoshpere (thanks everyone for your support!) and I’ve been invited to contribute to a number of blogging communities.
As I shared with you earlier, I’m now part of the Women [...]
A few days ago, while I was at the hair salon, Debbie*, the twentysomething who was washing my hair, offered to give me a scalp massage. Without even thinking about it I accepted her very generous offer. Shortly after she started, it became obvious that she was not good at it. Aside from missing all [...]
It's usually twists and turns that lead to the top. So stop following a straight line.
