Are You Ready?

Things happen so quickly in the business world today. One day you are going to a charity event for a great cause, the next day you are sending your information to a potential employer from the event!

Are you ready? I think it is crucial to keep your resume updated for this reason. If someone from a company emailed you today about a job opening, and this position was one that you dreamed about, could you send your information to them immediately? Or do you need to spend 4 hours in order to get your resume updated and into good shape?

That poses another question, are you always on the look out? It seems as if these things happen at the most unexpected times. What if you were in a grocery store check-out line and began chatting with the person behind you, soon to find out that they own one of the biggest financial firms in town? Would you be ready and willing to give them your information, your resume, your cover letter, your business card?
