I never knew what I wanted to be when I grew up (still don’t!), so I took the LSATs, went to law school and became an attorney. I quickly realized I would have been a great lawyer if it wasn’t for all that darned fine print!

Read MorePOTPOURRI: A WIDE-RANGING SUMMER SLEW OF IDEAS
Sometimes, no matter how hard I try, I can’t seem to come up with a compelling topic to write about, so I keep a notebook of ideas to help me out in the lean times. This was one of those times. I checked my list and found lots of good ideas, but none that could…
Read MoreTHE INTERVIEWER: WHY DO I WANT THIS JOB?
We enter the job market for many reasons. On one end of the spectrum, we may have risen to the top, achieved all we could hope for, and there is no longer an avenue for promotion and no opportunity for new challenges. On the other end of the spectrum, we were fired for poor performance…
Read MoreTHE KVETCHER: HOW DO I ROLL WITH THE PUNCHES WHEN EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING?
As the Jefferson Airplane once wisely said: “Life is change.” Something disturbing happened to me last week. My lovely wife Donna and I booked a flight from San Francisco to New York to visit family and friends. We were scheduled to arrive at Newark Airport on a Tuesday evening.

Read MoreTHE THREE Ps: HOW TO SUCCEED IN BUSINESS (OR ANYTHING) WITHOUT REALLY TRYING- PREPARE PROPERLY and PAY ATTENTION!
THE FIRST P: PREPARE PROPERLY The big day had finally arrived. I was sitting for the NYS Bar examination. I was so nervous, I was shaking, but I knew that it would be OK because I was prepared. Boy, was I ever! Not being the greatest test-taker, I may have overcompensated a bit. I cleared…

Read MoreTHE OBSERVER: So, what do YOU do?
How does one get their business message across? A pithy elevator pitch and a business card is a good start. My lovely wife Donna is an indefatigable, relentless networker. She can work a room like you would not believe. Consequently, we get invited to all sorts of networking events hosted by local chambers of…
Read MoreBREAKTHROUGH! (Part 2): Turn failure into SUCCESS
Several months ago, I wrote an article about how success is achieved through perseverance https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/breakthrough-power-perseverance-dlr-associates-recruiting/. It told the story of my battle with the New York Times crossword puzzle, and how I completed it (taking two weeks, no cheating) through sheer persistence. Coming off of that adrenaline high, I started a new puzzle, KNOWING that…
Read MoreHow do you attract top talent? Start with a thoughtful job description!
A few weeks ago, I received a job order from a small financial institution that looked as if it was scratched out on a napkin and hastily put into a Word document.
