The Key Class: The Keys to Job Search Success

Etiquette as a Winning Formula for Job Search Success? Why not? Seventy, that’s right, 70 percent of people lose their jobs because they don’t fit into the work environment. It has become even more difficult to get a job. When John Daly explains to people that the reason they aren’t appearing to “fit in” leads back to their not understanding business and personal etiquette, he’s often met with, “You mean that stuffy, eat-with-the-right-fork stuff?” Far from it. Daly encourages people to think of job hunting as a game. Job hunting depends on knowing the rules of the game. Like playing football, you need to know all the rules, particularly the ones you don’t want to break, such as being out-of-bounds. The point of the game in job searching and in life is to know how to be comfortable and make others comfortable with you in every situation. And that’s why etiquette! So, why are so many people lacking in an understanding of the rules? Daly’s response is simple: No one has ever taught them! Over the past several years, Daly has been mentoring young people in Santa Barbara, California. In the process, he launched The Key Class, a course on business and social manners to help both students and unemployed workers secure jobs and gain college entrance. This book is a compilation of articles he’s written over the past few years, even snagging a few guest bloggers along the way.
