Hi, my name is Audrey Chernoff and I work for HCR Group as a recruiter and account manager.

This blog will often be short and to the point, giving you tips on acing the interview, using social networks to help you market yourself and anything to do with careers and job hunting. We will have  guest bloggers, so check here daily for updates. Feel free to sign up for our RSS feeds.

Here is today’s tip:

If you visit my linkedin profile, I am easy to find by name, you will see that I have done everything from working in advertising to licensed massage therapist. I am the original career changer. In this economic climate, many people are thinking of changing direction, going back to school and some are not sure what to do.

Years ago, I read a wonderful book that helped me decide what I really wanted to be when I grew up.  It was “I Could Do Anything If Only I Knew What It Was” by Barbara Sher. All her books are great, including “It’s Only Too Late If You Don’t Start Now”. Barbara Sher actually wrote to me on twitter saying that is her favorite book, but that’s a story for another blog.

The book “I Could…” is one of the best self help and discovery books I have ever read. It reminded me how much I love to sing and I began singing and auditioning again after reading  it. So feel free to comment here. Have you read and enjoyed any of Barbara Sher’s books? Have you read any other books that made an impact on what you do for a living? I would love to hear about them.
