October Series - Managing a Job Search (Session 4)
Stop moving in the wrong direction! It’s easy to confuse being busy with making progress. Not all activity is created equal. Many job seekers spend hours applying blindly or scrolling through job boards. But this kind of busywork often leads to burnout and disappointment. The real trap is measuring effort instead of results. (Read that again). What matters is focusing on high-impact activities and tracking meaningful metrics. If you don’t, you risk throwing darts in the wrong direction and wondering why you’re not hitting the board. While you might get lucky with sheer volume and the law of averages, it’s ultimately the quality and direction of your activity that truly counts.

Breaking Into German Companies: Your Strategic Career Journey
Think BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Siemens, SAP, Adidas, and BASF. These iconic German brands represent just the tip of the iceberg in America's business landscape. Behind these household names are remarkable success stories like Tom, who climbed from financial analyst to CFO at a major German automotive supplier, Amanda who rose to President of a German pharmaceutical subsidiary, and Judith who became SVP at a leading German engineering firm. What unites their journeys? They all grew through the ranks within German companies, embraced strategic expatriate assignments to Germany, and now enjoy entrepreneurial freedoms with seven-figure compensation packages that are rewarding both performance and loyalty. With 80% of German companies planning further US investments and new facilities being built across America, we're witnessing an unprecedented window of opportunity for young professionals. Beyond the famous brands everyone recognizes, there are 5,600 German subsidiaries operating in the US, each offering significant professional opportunities for those who understand how to navigate their unique culture. German companies share one critical characteristic that is setting them apart: they actively seek talented American personnel and they reward loyalty with clear advancement paths and substantial compensation. Their approach combines the German values of thoroughness, reliability, and systematic development with respect for individual achievement. What if this methodical, relationship-based path to leadership is exactly your calling?
