You may recall how last week I mentioned a gentleman named Don.

If you missed that, let me bring you up to speed:

Don worked in the trust department of a bank for 25 years, and now he wants to change careers to something he finds more meaningful.

I can hardly believe it!            

In less than a week, my baby is scheduled to come into the world.
                                                                                                            
My wife Andrea and I are over the moon about it, of course.

However, as excited as we are, we’re actually hoping the baby will be born a week later.

If you don't have the interviews all lined up yet, here are some job search tips to help you get more interview invites.
                    
Let's start with my step-by-step job search process, from start to finish.

It might not feel like it some days, but recruiters, hiring managers, and HR reps do not hold all the power. Here are five specific areas where you, as a job seeker, have the leverage. Use them to your advantage!

Recently, I received this email from Ellie:

I was a bit sceptical when I first bought this product but once I went through it I saw how valuable it was and it helped me enormously!

 I had my first ever interview for a permanent role and I absolutely aced it thanks to you. More importantly, I then also got offered my dream job.

 You helped me go from being unemployed and doubting my abilities to getting two job offers in one month! I cannot stress enough how useful this product has been.

I love that quote.                                                          

It reminds me of my friend Don I told you about.

There’s a gentleman I know named Don who has worked in the trust department of a bank for 25 years.

The job isn’t exactly his cup of tea, but he’s stayed there for so many years because it was a good offer at the time, and he had a family to feed.

Well, his kids grew up and left home. So, now Don wants to do something that he finds more meaningful – something different that leverages all his experience in the financial industry.

Thankfully, scam job postings are pretty rare.                                                                                                                    

The majority of job ads come from managers who simply want to find a talented candidate who they can bring onto their team.                                                                                                                                                       

However, scam job ads do come up from time to time – and even though they're pretty rare, getting caught by one can undermine your confidence or, even worse, drain your motivation to keep putting more irons in the fire.

Yesterday, I received this email from John (an Interview Success Formula member who I predict is going to land his dream job pretty soon):

Last week, I received this reply (to one of these emails) from "S":
