Are you worried about the economy? Concerned about rising unemployment figures?

In recent months, the job market has become increasingly competitive, and yes, all the indicators are that it will become even more so. But even as the economy slows, there are many who are incredibly successful in conducting fast, effective job searches. Even in a recession–even in the midst of rising unemployment–you CAN build your career and secure a job that is personally, professionally, and financially rewarding. Here are 21 tips that you can put into action today to speed your own job search and drive it to a fast, successful conclusion.

1. Set weekly goals for your job search – To keep your job search moving forward I recommend you set manageable and motivating weekly goals. Your goals should be: Attainable while providing a challenge; Written; Specific; Stated in a positive way; Manageable; Measurable and trackable; Timed with a deadline

2. Be clear about your focus – Knowing what YOU want, what YOU are passionate about, and what YOU bring to the table will provide you with a confidence that simply can’t and won’t be matched by many of your competitors in the job market.

3. Create and follow a multi-pronged job search plan – An effective job search campaign is one that includes the strategic, planned, methodical use of a variety of job search approaches.

4. Approach your job search as if it were a job itself – Get organized and create a system for managing your job search. At the very least, you need a calendaring system, a system of logging inter-related and follow-up activities, a contact management system, and a filing system.

5. Assemble a support team – You should build a support team around you of people who can help you stay motivated and on track while giving you honest feedback and helping you stay accountable to your goals.

6. Develop and promote your personal brand – Personal branding differentiates you from your peers and helps to position you as a leader in your field. By knowing and promoting your brand, you achieve instant, precision-like focus that positions you as the ideal candidate for the specific type of opportunity that interests you.

7. Prepare your CAR success stories – Take the time to think about and document CAR Success Stories (Challenge-Action-Result Success Stories). What are some of your greatest accomplishments that illustrate the strengths you want to highlight in your interview? What were the challenges you faced related to these accomplishments? What actions did you take to meet the challenge? What were the results—quantified results when possible—of the actions that you took? You will use these in your resume, during networking meetings, and in interviews.

8. Perfect your resume – Your resume is your first introduction to most employers, and your only chance to make a good first impression. Keep your resume up-to-date at all times. Rewrite your resume to convey and illustrate your unique value proposition complete with accomplishments and “CAR success stories” that differentiate you from your competitors in the job market.

9. Cultivate your network – There is no more effective job search technique than networking. Make networking a part of your daily routine and plan to spend the majority of your job search time on networking activities.

10. Create and practice your elevator pitch – You will hear the “what do you do?” or “tell me about yourself?” questions over and over. Preparation is the key to confidence and the key to making a lasting, positive, and memorable first impression. Be ready with a 30-60 second pitch that confidently conveys to the listener who you are as a professional and what your value proposition is.

11. Do your research – Take the initiative and identify the companies that you really want to work for. Determine where you would fit in their structure and what you have to offer them. Develop a proposal that clearly illustrates how you would deliver a return on their investment in hiring you. Now leverage your network to set up meetings with the hiring decision-maker at the companies.

12. Strengthen your industry contacts and knowledge – Informational interviewing is a great technique for almost everyone. Contact people who can tell you what is going on in the field, help you better understand the competitive landscape, describe for you what it is like to work in the field, and ideally point you in the right direction for the next person you may want to speak with.

13. Build your online presence – Creating and maintaining a blog on your area of career expertise is an extraordinary way to build your credibility and visibility. Business networking sites like LinkedIn and FaceBook are increasingly popular ways to expand your network. Consider writing articles on industry and profession-related topics. You can also participate in online discussions on topics related to your career focus.

14. Introduce yourself to headhunters – There are presently well over 15,000 recruiting offices in just the United States alone. Do a little research and determine which firms specialize in your industry of choice or positions like you are seeking. This small, segmented list is the one you should focus your time and attention on.

15. Be prepared for salary negotiations – Know your value and be able to clearly articulate the returns that an employer can expect from hiring you. Never forget that as an employee you are investment. It is up to you to know what your worth is, to make sure the potential employer is clear on what that is, and to make sure that they pay you the best possible price for your contributions.

16. Put together a strong list of references – Contact each person that you intend to list and ask for their permission. Never provide someone as a reference unless you have discussed it with them first and briefed them on your current job search. Verify the contact information for each reference and ask for permission to list a telephone number and email address.

17. Get out and meet people – Join and then take part in events held by professional associations and other groups. Attend workshops and trainings in your field or industry. Attend job fairs to meet directly with hiring decision-makers. Volunteer your career-related skills in your community. If you are an expert at something, offer to speak on the topic to various groups.

18. Always follow up – A hand-written thank you note or a more formal, typed thank you letter can make a lasting positive impression that gives you a distinct competitive advantage. A follow-up phone call on every resume you send, whether it is a resume sent cold, in response to an ad, or based on a referral from one of your networking contacts can make all the difference in whether your resume is actually read and considered or not.

19. Adopt a “failure is not an option” attitude – Celebrate your accomplishments daily and weekly, but recognize that a successful job search requires persistence and consistent effort. It can be difficult to remain motivated when you don’t immediately see results but remind yourself that job searching is a process and that it takes time. Reward yourself not just for the results, but for the effort.

20. Consider an “outside the box” solution to employment – If you are having trouble finding that one, perfect full-time position, consider a “portfolio” career that is built around a variety of part-time jobs, which may include some combination of employment, self-employment, freelancing, consulting, and temporary jobs. While many of us have been raised to believe that a full-time job is really the only secure work arrangement, a portfolio career may actually be more secure because it involves multiple streams of income.

21. Adjust your attitude – An enthusiastic, “can-do” attitude that exudes self-confidence and a clear understanding of the value you offer in the workplace will make all the difference. Always put a smile on your face when you talk on the phone; it will shine through in your voice. Make eye contact and watch your body signals and posture when you meet with contacts in person. Your positive, confident attitude is one that people will like to be around and will make it more likely that you will be hired.

When you turn on the news and all you see is bad news about the economy and the job market, it is easy to become so anxious that you actually scare yourself into inaction. Don’t let that happen to you! There are great jobs out there to be had. Stay competitive, remain in action and working toward your goals each day, and one of those jobs WILL be your new job. Job searching does take time, even at the best of times, but by leveraging these 21 tips you will find yourself back to work faster than you thought possible.

(Editor’s Note: The rankings in this article are from the AP Top 25 Poll of sportswriters and sportscasters, and any ratings are from Jeff Sagarin.)

No win in College Football’s 4th week of action was any bigger than unranked Iowa’s 21-10 upset victory on-the-road over 5th-ranked Penn State in Happy Valley. Iowa is now unbeaten at 4-0.

The Hawkeyes ruined the Nittany Lions perfect 9-0 season last year with a 24-23 victory at home, and proved it was no fluke this year on Penn State’s turf. If there are any doubters left in Happy Valley this year, they have to be homers in blinders. The Penn State Nittany Lions are always overrated in the polls because they only play a couple of good teams a year, and Iowa happens to be one of them.

Not far behind for upset-game-of-the-week honors were the unranked South Florida Bulls, who took down 18th-ranked Florida State on-the-road, 17-7, pushing the Bulls’ record to 4-0. The third best upset of the week was 11th-ranked Virginia Tech’s home victory over 9th-ranked Hurricanes of Miami (FL), 31-7.

Two other not unexpected upsets came at the expense of the 4th-ranked Mississippi Rebels, who were beaten 16-10 at unranked South Carolina, and the 6th-ranked California Bears, who were beaten 42-3 at unranked Oregon. Please stop all of the pre-season hype about Mississippi this and California that; Mississippi remains not that good at the moment, and California always folds, the Bears just may be starting to fold early this year because 42-3, even in an away game, is some whipping.

The last 2 of 7 upsets of AP Top 25 teams this week came with unranked Georgia Tech’s 24-7 home victory over 22nd-ranked North Carolina, and unranked Stanford’s 34-14 home win over 24th-ranked Washington. The Huskies dropped right out of the Top 25 Poll and Stanford (3-1) never made it in.

So who else among unranked teams is acting like they belong in the Top 25? How about these three 4-0 teams: Missouri beat Nevada 31-21 on-the-road, Auburn beat Ball State 54-30 at home, and Wisconsin beat Michigan State 38-30 at home. Or perhaps the 3-0 Texas A&M Aggies, who beat UAB 56-19 at home.

Eight ranked teams kept moving right on, pushing their records to 4-0. They included 1st-ranked Florida on-the-road over Kentucky 41-7; 2nd-ranked Texas at home over UTEP 64-7; 3rd ranked Alabama at home over Arkansas 35-7; 7th-ranked LSU on-the-road over Mississippi State 30-26; 8th-ranked Boise State on-the-road over Bowling Green 49-14; 14th-ranked Cincinnati at home over Fresno State 28-20; 20th-ranked Kansas at home over Southern Mississippi 35-28; and 23rd-ranked Michigan at home over Indiana 36-33.

Two other ranked teams pushed their record to 3-0 as 15th-ranked TCU won at Clemson 14-10, and 17th-ranked Houston won at home over Texas Tech, 29-28.

Among the 10 ranked teams still with unbeaten records, 5 notched victories by a touchdown or less—Kansas by 7, LSU and TCU by 4, Michigan by 3 and Houston by 1. Compare that to the other 5 who won by 8 or more—Texas by 57, Boise State by 35, Florida by 34, Alabama by 28 and Cincinnati by 8. Now you know who is more focused and who is less focused when it comes to execution.

Five other ranked teams who have already been beaten once continued to stay noticed by winning again. They included 13th-ranked Ohio State at home giving Illinois a lesson in how to score a shutout 30-0; 19-ranked BYU at home over Colorado State, 42-23; 21st-ranked Georgia at home over Arizona State 20-17; 16th-ranked Oklahoma State at home over 1-AA Grambling State 56-6; and 12th-ranked Southern California at home over Washington State 27-6.

There were 5 notable wins that have nothing to do with ranked teams or upsets. They included Boston College at home over Wake Forest 27-24 in overtime; Tulsa on-the-road over 1-AA Houston State 56-3, a score the Golden Hurricane had after 3 quarters; Idaho on-the-road over Northern Illinois 34-31, even though Idaho was outscored 15-6 in the last quarter; Central Michigan at home over Akron 48-21 as the Chippewas scored at least a touchdown in every quarter; Utah at home over Louisville 30-14; and Notre Dame on-the-road over Purdue 24-21.

There was also one notable loss that had nothing to do with ranked teams or upsets—Pittsburgh lost on-the-road to North Carolina State, 38-31, as NC State outscored Pitt 14-0 in the last quarter. In other words, the Pitt defense collapsed and the Panthers lost for the first time this year.

That’s it, that’s all, Johnny, put a wrapper on it, we’re going for a cold brewski.
