The Career Problem

The problem faced by government employees is that the on the job work and the skill set of career management are very different. Public servants are passionate about the work they do, yet they find it challenging to secure their dream job and find fulfillment in their work.

A career in government can be a rewarding and fulfilling experience. But, there are challenges to getting hired and promoted. From wading through a dizzying amount of options and navigating a complex hiring process to properly showcasing your abilities and earning promotions, defining your government career is challenging. 

 

In short, you end up frustrated and feeling like you want to stop trying, because you're not actually doing the work you love!

It’s built on the tried-and-true methodology that we’ve used since 1999. A formula that has helped myself and hundreds of our clients create highly successful, full-time government careers that deliver fulfillment at serving the needs of the public.

Questions & Answers

Q: How much of a time commitment will this take every day?

A: On average you might need about 1 hour a day for this challenge. The daily educational videos are about 30 minutes and the follow up action activities can take about the same. There is opportunity to put in more time if you have it but it was designed keeping in mind that time might be a limiting factor for some. If you can set aside an hour a day you will more than succeed!

Q: Do I need a resume or significant work experience to do this?

 

A: No. The process we’ll be taking you through doesn’t require any of that, although you can use them if you have them. Many of our clients believe they don't have enough 'real experience' at first only to realize they have more than enough already! The only requirement is that you have at least a personal Facebook profile.

Q: Do I need to buy any software packages or systems for this to work?

 

A: No. The idea is to focus on the process, not the tools. A standard computer with word processing software and an internet connection is all that is needed.

Q: I’m uncomfortable with submitting a lot of job applications. Do you cover this on the Challenge?

 

A: Yes. I’ll show you a way to target meaningful jobs with a high likelihood of a job offer that is comfortable and actually works.
