Chapter 1. The Toolkit Approach to Career Development
Developing a Comprehensive Set of Career ToolsFor many professionals, particularly those who want to break into or develop their careers in information technology (IT), there is a large and growing frustration. Economic changes—in particular, the bursting dot-com bubble—have left many struggling. These people have an inkling that opportunities still exist in technology careers, but they are having difficulty taking the next step. The IT Career Builder’s Toolkit has been compiled to bring you, the technology professional, a message that will both motivate and educate. This book contains vital information and proven methods that can make a huge impact on your career success. |
As someone who has spent many years working in the IT field, I place great emphasis on providing actual value. I did the same when starting this project and during its production. In effect, while writing each morning, I asked myself why I was undertaking this project. Why am I, in fact, putting other projects on the back burner to pursue this? I have worked to create a comprehensive and realistic set of tools to help you achieve success in your career-building efforts.
