Ask survivors of the most popular reality television shows and they'll tell you "If you have to eat a cockroach, don't spend too much time thinking about it." Keep focused on the end-game and move on. Know yourself, have a plan, make a footprint. After you're fired, the raw power needed to convert a job loss into a high-voltage catalyst that gains multiple job offers is surprisingly simple. Consider these energizers: Who you are? Detangle your sense of job from your sense of self Where are you going?Design a five-year plan for career focus / direction What can you do?Maintain a life-long log of your career achievements "Getting fired is a lot like getting divorced," says Steve Johnson, Vice President of Information Systems for R. L. Stevens & Associates Inc., http://interviewing.com/a leading international career marketing firm headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts. "All you hear is 'I don't want you anymore'," he says. Own your success and your failures. When he was fired from a multi-billion dollar petroleum company earlier in his career, discernment gave Johnson, a business-world veteran, the inner strength to get up and get on instead of rolling over and playing dead. Despite an impressive portfolio of documented achievements that solidly contributed to the bottom line through process reengineering, he was still let go. His stellar performance though appreciated, was undervalued by his employers. Johnson made sure that this unexpected event did not end his career or dampen his spirits. "The time I was given the pink slip and told my talents were no longer needed, I faced a decision to either continually bemoan the shut door or look forward and find a new door I could open." Possess the wisdom to know the difference between opportunity lost and possibility found. Johnson, an avid golfer, expertly swung himself out of his job loss bunker and found customers wanting his talents by taking the same approach in his job search as he does in his sport. "Getting fired is like an awful day on the golf course. You've got to stay in the game, play the holes, and adapt, improvise and overcome," he says. "Every time a bad thing happened in my career, I always landed on my feet and good fortune proliferated through increased earnings, greater fulfillment and expanded opportunity to learn new skills. Using multiple career marketing strategies simultaneously I made sure that failure was never an option," he added. Quickly create opportunities for yourself by changing your mental and physical state. Here's what you can do to restore order out of your job loss chaos: Want to deactivate your fears? ?Take a vacation now to clear your head and get perspective ?Don't feed your anger by calling past colleagues and revisiting the past ?Welcome your firing as an unexpected career advancement to the next level ?Limit your pity party to one business day (8 hours) ?Forgive, let go, accelerate onward Want to reactivate your confidence? ?Volunteer your time to someone who needs you ? a charitable organization ?Convert your resume from a career obituary to a marketing promo piece ?Inventory your portfolio of skills and question their relevancy / currency ?Showcase your business talent by serving on a community task force ?Upgrade your self-marketing campaign to strengthen your branding Change your focus from retribution to restoration and you'll find the key to layoff survival and increased employer interest. Swallow your pride and take control of your career by morphing yourself into a consultant. You might even be able to reverse your misfortune and sell your talents back to the boss who fired you. Many ingenious job searchers have done just that and leveraged their talents by filling a void left by their departure. If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is compromise. Got any valid reason to settle for a bad-tasting insect when a juicy steak is just around the corner? Get on with it. About the Author: Marta L. Driesslein is a senior management consultant for R.L.

RésumETips Some basics about job hunting... First of all, nobody owes you a job! This obvious fact is often overlooked by the eager job hunter -- at least for a couple of months -- when he or she gives up looking for a job! Many people think employers should hire them because of their award-winning personality. You have got to have a little something to show for yourself besides your pretty smile. The simple truth is, you need to find a way to stand out from the crowd so that your potential employer will actually listen to what you have to say. A great résumEis the best place to start. Action statements about what you have accomplished really stick out on a résumE Vague statements can really hurt your chances for a position. Your résumEis the first chance to impress an employer. Do not ruin that chance with silly spelling errors and cloudy information. Employers love concise, well thought out résumés. Your résumEis your map to a job. It should lead to a job and not the garbage. Write it like you spent the last year perfecting it. It should never sound like it was slopped together in an hour. A good way to STAND out from the competition is by expressing your desire for the job with a little extra effort. There are ways of straying from the convention and yet remaining in the norm. A paper résumEis the norm. Résumés can take any form your imagination takes you. Some employers will welcome creativity and other formats such as portfolios or website résumés. A great place to discover new ways of impressing employers is at Vision-RésumE This extra effort might just help you stand out from the crowd and provide the traction needed to remain in an employers mind. However, standing on your creative submission alone is not very wise. You should back up your portfolio or website with a traditional paper résumEas well to appease the unmoved hirer. The most important thing to remember in this battle-ground of job seeking is that employers do not owe you a thing. They have a position to fill and you are just one of a few, if not hundreds of persons asking for the job. So, enter the task of job-hunting as if looking for a soul mate. It takes effort, and only the most dedicated win the best jobs. RésumETips Some basics about job hunting... First of all, nobody owes you a job!
