Job Action Day was established in November 2008 as a day of empowerment for workers and job-seekers -- to
put your career and job in the forefront, making plans, taking action steps.
While job-seekers and workers should be monitoring their careers and job-search
regularly, it's often easy to get caught up in the moment -- with work, family,
and other obligations -- and put career decisions aside.
Furthermore, because the employment picture was so bleak in the fall of 2008,
there was no question job-seekers and workers needed a large dosage of
positive tips, tools, and resources they could use to protect their current job,
find a new job, or seek a career change.
Job Action Day was established by Quintessential Careers,
the Web's leading career site, as an annual event that brings together career experts and bloggers
to provide the most relevant advice to job-seekers and workers.
For people currently working, Job Action Day is an opportunity to not only
examine your current job and employer, but also evaluate both the stability of
that job and employer as well as your personal fulfillment with your job. It's a
day to take stock of your career and develop a plan for their next career steps.
For job-seekers, Job Action Day is a chance to take a break from the daily grind
of job-hunting to take a look at the bigger picture of your career and job-search strategies.
It's a day to develop plans for developing new job and career options and devising
new and better ways to track down job leads and position yourself for employment opportunities.
