Making progress

As you might be able to see, I am making progress on the new site. Again, please forgive the mess (broken links, placeholder text) and less than usual style and organisation as I move into my new web “home” on WordPress.

Site Transition Update

As you can see, I am still working on the update. If you need to contact me over the next few days, please call 604-805-1658.

BoldCareer site transitioning to new platform

Thank you for visiting. I am quickly transitioning the BoldCareer site to a new platform and look and feel. Hopefully, I will be done this weekend. In the meantime, please forgive the absence of pages and content. I will be right back.

Inviting to Connect on LinkedIn? Give Context. Please.

Here are some familiar words for users of LinkedIn.com…

I’d like to add you to my professional network on LinkedIn. 

Nine times out of ten, the LinkedIn connection invitations I receive come with the default text above. Granted, it is the fastest way of sending invitations. And when you and I know each other well, perhaps no more is needed. 

For everyone else – loose connections, a person I met once long ago, or strangers, it will not do. 

Give me some context, please. Why would you like to connect? What can I expect from our connection? 

There are two really important reasons to give some context.

Resume Boot Camp Launched

Resume Boot CampHere is some decisive action as a follow-up to my post last week.

Resume Boot Camp is a new program I have designed and configured for those of you who have put some hard work into your resume but would like to validate / check / fine-tune your document. This is a fast and cost-effective way to ensure your Resume is prime-time ready.

The first Resume Boot Camp starts this Thursday, April 23 and runs to Tuesday the 28th. The next Resume Boot Camp will begin in early May.
