Virginia Beach, VA (PRWEB) June 9, 2004--Competition is fierce and if you don’t know the rules, you can’t win the employment game.     The market demands that career seekers elevate themselves to performance- based employees and become the top “10-30%” to get hired. This 10 – 30% membership can be accomplished with a simple career improvement formula. Increase your employability factor to decrease your competition. Doing this will ensure you win the game of unemployment and become the employee that companies want.

Help is at hand. Francina R. Harrison, a career consultant and owner of Harrison & Associates, is committed to helping career seekers become that top 10-30 percent and prepare to compete. “We have the job getting knowledge and want to share that “know how” affordably with the job seeking public. “I received several responses from potential employers...three contacted me immediately!” Andrean, Virginia. “I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that the Congressman LOVED the resume and cover letter.” Inez, Washington, DC.     Resume reviews are offered “free” as a service to help career seekers compete in today’s market. Harrison also provides a weekly advice column called “Ask the Career Engineer” for the Hampton Roads Employment Weekly and various employment related Internet sites. In Fall 2004, “employment getting” seminars will be offered online and locally to provide career seekers with insights to discover who they are in the workplace and in life. “We are committed to serving our community and preparing job seekers for the 2004 hiring season,” says Francina.

Francina has released her first book titled “A Mind to Work: The Life and Career Planning Guide for People Who Want. Need to Work! (February 2004, iUniverse, ISBN: 0-595-30390-0@ $10.95). The book can be purchased directly from the author, or online bookstores such as amazon.com or barnes&nobles.com. The author has more than ten years of experience helping job seekers enter or return to work for non-profits, corporate and the public sector. “It’s deeper than a job, it’s about you finding your life’s work…instead of just a work life.” That is the philosophy of this Navy spouse, mother of two and Norfolk State University graduate. “The labor market is an important factor in the hiring process; however, it’s not the only ingredient for a successful work life,” says Harrison.
