The New Rules For Getting Ahead At Work

October 23, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 1 Comment • Blog, Career Advice

The old way of managing your career has been impacted by our new economy. We now have four generations in the workforce, people are switching jobs more regularly, and corporations are hiring from around the world, and even automating positions that were previously held by people. Your job, and everyone else’s, is at risk on […]

You’re Better Off Writing A Book And A Case Study Over A Resume

October 22, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 2 Comments • Blog, Career Advice

I always tell people that if a single resume could get you a job, then why do you have to go on a series of interviews after submitting it? Most resumes lack important information for hiring managers, such as actually results achieved, endorsements and proof of expertise. Because of the lack of important information on […]

How Being An Only Child Is A Competitive Advantage In Business

August 26, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 2 Comments • Blog, Personal Branding

There has always been a stigma around being an only child ever since I was born. Whenever I meet someone and they ask if I have any siblings, they always roll their eyes when I say “no”. They immediately think that an only child is selfish, spoiled, can’t share, and is attention crazed. As an […]

44 Of The Most Interesting Facts About Generation X

July 26, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 8 Comments • Blog, Gen X, Research

Generation X, or the post boomers, were born between 1965 and 1981. They are 45 million of them and they are typically forgotten by the media, despite their rising power in the workplace. Currently, more Gen X’ers are raising children, don’t believe they will be retiring when their parents did, and are looking for a […]

How To Become A Personal Branding Expert

June 18, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 8 Comments • Blog, Personal Branding

There are thousands of people who think they are personal branding experts because they have social media accounts. They have either a small following or a large one because they purchased followers or friends using sketchy services. Then, there are other people who believe that personal branding is a fad or only applicable to celebrities. […]

The Secret To Getting A Job Is To Always Be Employed [ABE]

May 10, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 2 Comments • Blog, Career Advice

If you aren’t doing work, you aren’t employable. You must always prevent yourself from becoming a passive candidate, or one that is unemployed and either in search for an opportunity or doing nothing at all. Companies have a bias against passive candidates and hiring managers overlook resumes that have “gaps”, where you aren’t actively doing […]

5 Pieces Of Advice For The Graduating Class Of 2015

April 11, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 2 Comments • Blog

I dedicate this piece to the class of 2015. While the job outlook looks bright as hiring is expected to increase by 8.3 percent, it’s still going to be very competitive out there, with a few million graduates competing for jobs. Companies aren’t paying as much as they did before the recession and are taking […]

How To Become A Millennial Expert

April 6, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • Leave a Comment • Blog

Each day, I see a new “millennial expert” come on the scene and promote various coaching and speaking services. If you review their background, they tend not to have much experience at all, aren’t well researched and are of a completely different generation. If you’re looking for a trusted source on the topic of millennials, […]

Why The Idea Of Paying Your Dues Is A Myth

April 4, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 1 Comment • Blog

When I grew up, all I kept hearing from successful people was “pay your dues” if you want to achieve success at work. At thirteen years old, I started paying my dues as a caterer at my temple just outside of Boston, Massachusetts. I’m thirty-one years old now and I’m still “paying my dues”. When […]

From 6 Years of Struggling In Book Publishing To New York Times Bestseller

March 15, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 10 Comments • Blog, My Journey

A lot of people ask me how I got into publishing and how I was able to get both books published by well known publishers. In the interest of transparency, and helping people, I wanted to give a first hand account of how I went about going from no deals to two deals before turning […]

The Power Of Personal Websites

February 21, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • 1 Comment • Blog

I know you are all on at least one social network but that doesn’t mean you should avoid building a website of your own. Who knows what social networks will still exist in the future and if one comes crashing down, you lose all the information you ever posted. The best way to prevent a […]

How Different Generations Can Help One Another Succeed

January 28, 2015 By Dan Schawbel • Leave a Comment • Blog

I recently participated in an installment of the Bank of America Small Business Social Series focused on the generational differences among small business owners.  CNBC’s Carol Roth, a long-time friend, moderated a discussion with myself and a panel of experts using  the Google Hangout platform. I served as the millennial expert, USA Today columnist Steve Strauss was […]

Why You Need to Start With The End In Mind

September 23, 2014 By Dan Schawbel • 1 Comment • Blog, Career Advice

A lot of students feel lost and use college to find themselves and then graduate without a clear sense of direction and purpose. Then they enroll in graduate school in order to delay the inevitable decision on what to do with their lives. Then they jump from company to company and from job to job […]

Why And How You’re A Student For Life

September 11, 2014 By Dan Schawbel • Leave a Comment • Blog, Career Advice, Education

When you graduate college, or finish a college program, your time as a student has only begun. As Harvey Mackay once said “A student of life considers the world a classroom.” You have to constantly learn and educate yourself on a daily basis, not just during a two- or four-year period of your life. These […]

Take Control Of Your Own Learning Experience

September 4, 2014 By Dan Schawbel • Leave a Comment • Blog, Education

It’s your responsibility to get the most out of your college experience as possible. If you sit around and think that your school is going to just pass you and trade you a degree for a job, you will be very disappointed. The good news is, there’s never been a better time to take charge […]
