 THE PROGRAMME WAS RECORDED AT 7.30am ON THURSDAY 19th AUGUST. SO JUST LISTEN IN.


If you have landed a new job or been promoted then this show is for you. Scott Herrick has written THE book that will guide you through the success route.

I would like to introduce you Scot Herrick, career management trainer and author of 'I've Landed My Dream Job-Now What??'

 About the book:

In our shifting economy, landing a job –- any job –- is a big deal. So if you land your dream job, you may find yourself so pleased and satisfied with your achievement that you think you're done. But, as Scot Herrick points out in 'I've Landed My Dream Job–-Now What???' today –- more than ever before –- you need to hit the ground running on day one of your new job.

Given current economics, having a new employee get productive super fast is a huge advantage not only for the employee's manager but for the employee too. This can make the first 30 days at a new job intense and filled with anxiety because virtually everything is new –- corporate culture, team dynamics, management styles, and more. It is difficult for you, as a new hire, to nail down what you know, who to ask, and which of your skills are most valued by your new organization.

Scot Herrick's purpose in writing this book is to help people like you, who have just landed a job at a large or small corporation, to get started on the right foot. Beginning with the often-overlooked basics, Scot shows you how to manage the transition from your old job, to evaluate the fit between your new workplace and yourself, to identify the real decision makers, to integrate into your new team's culture and, most important, to determine which aspects of your new role are most meaningful to your manager, and therefore most closely linked to your job security and paycheck.
