Description: Every job search starts with a declaration of what you want and why you should have what you want. You must understand what makes you uniquely suited for the job you want. Your manifesto provides a unique approach to your job search reflected in your job search marketing plan, the tools you choose, and the way you choose to describe yourself to others. First you need a Job Search Marketing Plan to outline the core elements of your job search. By putting energy and thought into a plan in the beginning, you can focus on how to get what you want during your search.
Notes: "Declare to the world how you will find your next job!"
