Successful career change is systematically outlined in this step-by-step guide for those looking to alter and guide their career paths. Divided into sections that focus on sequential steps in the process of committing to and finding new employment, this book describes proven methods to determine an ideal job and workplace, land a job with appropriate pay, receive a promotion, get a raise, or launch a new business. Many hard-earned tips are included, such as how to tap into the hidden job market (positions not advertised on the Internet or in print resources) and how to get promoted regardless of current position or competition within the company.
