Exciting News! Simple Truths author BJ Gallagher has been featured on the San Francisco ABC morning show, and she was generous enough to share the clip. BJ has written three books for us, including The Best Way Out is Always Through, Learning to Dance in the Rain, and A Peacock in the Land of Penguins. BJ just released a new book called It's Never Too Late to Be What You Might Have Been. Check it out on her website.
What BJ had to say in this short clip rang true for me. I have a neighbor and a couple family members that are struggling with unemployment right now. They can vouch for the fact that it's hard in any economy to find a job. While introducing them to potential recruiters is the most tangible way that I can help them, I also notice that a quick prayer, an encouraging word, or a "how are you holding up?" seems to be equally as helpful. I sent them this video clip, because I think that confidence during the job interview is just as important as the interview itself.
So, when you have been job searching, what has been the most encouraging thing that you have heard? What helped you finally get the job? How have you helped others?
