We were going to start this post with a clever analogy that linked the arrival of autumn with all the new stuff on our blog. But as it turns out, we were a few weeks late to the leaf-changing party and, frankly, the whole thing just wasn’t that clever. So let’s skip to the good part.
There’s new stuff on the way. A lot of it.
In the coming weeks, we’ll be launching a number of new columns and series. We’re still be covering the career beat, but we’re going to blow it up a bit. There will be some new faces on the blog with new takes on career management, hiring, recruiting, resumes, and interviews. And cats. (It’s the Internet, after all.)
One of our favorite new features is called “So You Want To Be…,” in which a revolving door of best-in-class professionals talk about their own careers; where they are, where they started, and how they navigated the road in between. We’re also profiling those members of the Guns community who are doing great things. Theater director and marketing Gun Jeremy Goren was kind enough to kick things off last week by talking about his upcoming production You Will Make a Difference.
Of course, all of your old favorites will still be there, dispensing sage advice and illuminating the road ahead, just as they’ve always done. Our Academy classes are not only still here, they’re growing and getting even more amazing. Meryl Weinsaft Cooper’s upcoming course, Be Your Own Best Publicist, will teach you how to use tried-and-true PR techniques to network, get noticed, and land your dream gig. That’s pretty awesome, right?
Stay tuned, folks. Big things are happening.
Is there something you’d like us to cover or someone you’d like to nominate for a Gun Profile? Email us at editor@thehiredguns.com. We’re always open to new ideas. We won’t even pretend like we thought of it on our own…probably.
