Continuing with my mission to introduce job hunters to bloggers they may not know about \u2014\u00a0but should \u2014\u00a0I\u2019m focusing today on Tim Tyrell-Smith (@TimsStrategy<\/a> on Twitter).<\/p>\n

If you want to catch up with the other posts in this series, here are the\u00a0first two:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u2192 The Career Sherpa: Job Search Navigation Expert<\/a> \u2013 Hannah Morgan (@careersherpa<\/a> on Twitter)<\/p>\n

\u2192 Happy Fourth Birthday to the Job Mob blog!<\/a> \u2013 Jacob Share (@jacobshare<\/a> on Twitter)<\/p>\n

A little background about Tim . . . <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Four years ago, he was unemployed for the first time in his career. To keep himself positive and confident, he reached out to other job seekers and began finding ways to build community. He created a set of tools to help job seekers with networking, and then began blogging to provide more in depth information and free downloads.<\/p>\n

In a relatively short amount of time, Tim has become a leading voice in the job search and personal marketing space. He\u2019s aligned himself with many of us in the careers industry and, time and again, comes through with support, expertise, innovation and opportunities.<\/p>\n

I stumbled across his first blogsite, Spin Strategy, 3 years ago, and have been hooked on Tim\u2019s writing ever since. If you visit his reincarnated blogsite, TimsStrategy<\/a>, be prepared to spend some time noodling around there. You\u2019ll have a hard time leaving.<\/p>\n

Just as I did with Hannah and Jacob, I asked Tim to share his best job search advice. Here\u2019s his answer, in three parts:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Know what you are looking for in the next job.<\/strong> So many are “open to anything” that they forget to share details to engage their network. We meet so many people in transition, help me remember you by giving me tangible data.<\/p>\n

2. Be positive and upbeat.<\/strong> Not always easy when things aren’t going well, but these are essential characteristics and a big part of the first impression with hiring managers, recruiters and new connections.<\/p>\n

3. Network with a purpose.<\/strong> Without a purpose you are just socializing. All that time away from home or online needs to deliver results (new connections, job leads, intros to target companies). Not just business cards.<\/p>\n

In his business<\/a>, Tim is a personal marketing coach, life coach, and keynote speaker. He\u2019s written two books that I highly recommend, HeadStrong and 30 Ideas: The Ideas of Successful Job Search<\/a>.<\/p>\n

An avid blogger, Tim writes about a wide array of job search essentials \u2013 personal branding, personal marketing, career development, social media, social networking. He blogs extensively about keeping a positive attitude.<\/p>\n

Any job seeker would benefit from joining his very active LinkedIn Group, Tim’s Strategy \u2013 Ideas for Job Search, Career and Life<\/a>.<\/p>\n
