If there is one thing you need to know about Craig Fisher, it’s that he has a ridiculously big heart. When we asked him to appear on CHO as our second guest, he didn’t even blink an eye. (Although that could be the coffee.)

Craig is a recruiter, researcher, entrepreneur, business owner, conference planner, speaker, writer and father to three boys. While most of us just putz around on the internet, Craig is breaking the internet and rebuilding it to his specifications. He does this in his free time. It’s insane.

Craig knows the world of work — and his knowledge of LinkedIn is unparalleled in our industry.

Want to optimize your LinkedIn profile so recruiters can find you? Want your name to show up in Google searches? Want to get a job? Want to meet a really great guy who can help you find a job?

Join us tomorrow — Tuesday, September 25th at 11AM ET — and we will introduce you to our friend, Craig Fisher. Right here. On this website. You don’t need to go anywhere fancy.

See you soon!

We had some technical difficulties with Alexandra Levit on Tuesday. Do me a favor and check out her books on Amazon. She is an amazing resource and we will have her back on the broadcast.

Next week? Our guest is Craig “Fishdogs” Fisher. He will talk about optimizing your LinkedIn profile so hiring managers and companies can find you.

See you on Tuesday, September 25th at 11AM ET!

alexandra-levit-whnIf you asked me to say something about Alexandra Levit, I would say that she is kind and brave.

Alexandra has an impeccable resume and is one of the leading global voices on entrepreneurship, careers and workforce development. But whenever I ask her to do something crazy — like be our debut guest on an internet-based chat show — she says yes.

I guess that’s what makes her an entrepreneur. She takes risks. She has fun. She can roll with the punches. It’s what also makes her a dear friend.

So I am excited for you to meet Alexandra on Tuesday at 11AM ET on Career Hangout. We’ll be talking about meaningful work, looking for a job in this weird economy and being successful in your current role.

Alexandra also produced the critically acclaimed JobSTART 101, a free online course that better prepares college students and graduates for the challenges of the workplace, and a U.S. Department of Labor course that helps military veterans transition to the civilian workforce. So we’ll talk about generational differences at work and the challenges returning veterans face when they come back to the American job market.

Join us at www.careerhangout.com on Tuesday, September 18th at 11AM ET. We’ll see you there!

Wanted to take a second and thank Isaiah and Lizzie Maldonado for designing our logo, our social media profiles and our website.

We also want to thank Lance Haun for being our volunteer producer. Beyond running the show, he will contribute his own ideas on career development. As one of the original bloggers in the Human Capital Management industry, he knows what he is talking about.

Thank you guys!
