Tips for a Stealthy Job Search

Published on March 12, 2005 By joeKnowledge In Work

Here are some no-no's for job searching on the low... I really like this one:

Don't wear your interview suit to your biz casual office.
Nothing sets off a red flag like wearing a suit to your dressed-down office. So how should you handle the wardrobe dilemma? For both men and women, suit bottoms (i.e. pants, skirts) are always passable for business casual....

And don't forget this one! Using your office email for job search applications:

Be smart about e-mail.
Play it safe, says Lebovits. You need to keep your current job until you have a new one. Email watch policies vary by company, so you'll want to use a separate account, like Hotmail, when discussing job search-related items.

When joeKnowledge goes live... on of these days... , you cane get a joeknowledge email addy or get a fowarding address that will send it to an existing non-work email address.

Tips for a Stealthy Job Search

By Kate Lorenz, CareerBuilder.com

On your mark. Get set. Go! The job recovery is over and with more than 1.5 million jobs added so far this year and growing worker dissatisfaction, more people are poised to make the move to a new job. One of the biggest job seeker groups expected are those currently employed. In fact, four-in-ten workers plan to change jobs this year.

No wonder people want to find new jobs. They have taken on more responsibilities and toil longer hours for the same pay. Leaders are seen as out-of-touch and incapable. Burnout is rampant. And the fear of losing one's job often postpones badly-needed vacations to recharge, causing even more burnout.

Are you one of the people who has been waiting for the right time to make a leap to a new job? Here are some tips for conducting that stealthy search while still employed from Neil Lebovits, president and COO of Ajilon Professional Staffing in Saddlebrook, N.J.
