It may be true that the meek shall inherit the Earth, but most assuredly not the best jobs. In today’s job market only the strong thrive, much less survive. In previous generations, a good education or perhaps the right connections was all you needed to land a great job.
That just won’t cut in the current career culture. If you think that a wink and a smile and a firm handshake will secure you your dream job, you are in for a major surprise. Don’t assume that driving ambition and a killer resumé will take you take to the promised land.
You’ve got to get behind the steering wheel, put the engine of your job search into high gear and navigate the curves and turns that make up the road of the 21st century job market…
You need to have a take-charge attitude because you’re competing against thousands of people for any single position. I think the working people of the world need to have a united, take-charge attitude. We’ve been taking it from the Man long enough.
i totally agree with your statement that passivity is simply passé in this job market! one must be competitive and active to get the best jobs.
