Your IT Career - Eric P Bloom - Bog

As a former senior IT executive, I gained the knowledge and experience to write for ITworld based on my personal experience moving through the IT ranks, mentoring and growing my staff, and thinking about the great advice I was given by my managers and mentors. Over the past year, I posted 52 blogs/columns on a wide variety of IT career related topics inspired by questions from readers, discussions with participants in my company's training classes, industry trends, and my personal experiences, both good and bad, as an IT professional. As you will see in the Table of Contents, these columns are categorized into the nine chapters listed below. - Enhancing Your Technical Skill Set - Enhancing Your Nontechnical Skill Set - Job Search Tips - In the Workplace - Maximizing Your Pay - Managing Your Career - Career Advancement Tips and Advice - Building Your Professional/Technical Brand - Joining IT from Other Professions My hope is that this book will provide you with insights, tips, tricks, and advice that will help you successfully manage your career and help you reach your short term and long term career goals.
