Executive Branding and the New Rules of C-level Job Search

Have you been thrust into an executive job search and finding that things have changed drastically since the last time you looked for a gig, even if it was only a few years ago?

Suddenly the game plan looks and feels completely different, and no one told you about it. You don’t know what you need to do to get a handle on and accelerate your search – what to do first, what not to do, who to turn to for help, how to best invest your time and funds.

You may be wondering what all the fuss is about personal branding, and if it’s really a requirement for successful executive job search.

I’ve been blogging and sharing my expertise for quite some time regarding c-level executive job search and all its requirements – branding, resumes, career biographies and other career marketing materials, online identity, online reputation management, social media, social networking, etc.

Here is a round-up my best blog posts and articles on the strategies you need to incorporate into your executive job search campaign, from here on Executive Career Brand and my Executive Resume Branding blogsite:
