It’s still January, which means technically I’m trending if I talk about goal setting.
Are you achieving yours? Goals that is?
I’m not really a goal-setter per se, as much as I strive to be an accomplish-er.
And, I guess now that I’ve written that previous sentence and am too lazy to go back and change it, I’ll just correct it here...
I have never arrived as much as I am always “on arrival.”
I don’t really accomplish, as much as I enjoy.
The joy is in the doing I like to say.
Sure, I touchdown from time to time. Some might misconstrue my pitstops as accomplishments.
But I strive to live in a state of progression.
Nothing is ever the destination.
Even so, if you’re interested in my tactics to climb the ladder of life, just like most things these days, it’s a click away…

Today, I’m decoding job descriptions. If you’re wondering what that entails, that’s me doing some Andy x-ray vision and taking a run at predicting the future (interview, salary negotiation, etc.) simply by seeing a job description.
I can even go backwards with what your resume should say.
I’m an all-directions kinda guy that way.

Lemme ask ya.
Is there anything more confusing than job titles when it comes to job searching and your career planning?
I think not.
Have you ever wondered…
Do job titles matter? Does anyone care?
How do I explain my title when no one outside my company knows what system engineer III means? Should I apply for lower-level titles to increase my chances of getting a job?
Can I apply to higher level jobs when I’m qualified but my title doesn’t indicate that?
Uh. Wait. Do I need to explain to future job interviewers that I had more responsibility in this manager role than my previous director role?
Coverage and answers to all this in today’s podcast…
