prepare your "emergency career toolkit"

Career Coaching 360 has a post enumerating the things you need in an “emergency career toolkit” to rebound from career setbacks:

  • A professionally critiqued resume.
  • An “Interview Prep Kit” including a polished portfolio, briefcase and power suit.
  • List of high powered references.
  • A Deep and Wide Professional Network.
  • Your Plan “B”.

The Houston area, and by default the Pasadena area, is still doing relatively well (employment-wise). But tougher times are coming our way. Be prepared.
