If You Can Find the Perfect Costume, You Can Find the Perfect Job

1. Stop, Collaborate & Listen

When it comes time to choose a costume, you don’t have to go it alone. Whether it’s a classic group such as the gang from Scooby Doo, or everyone from Snooki to The Situation on the Jersey Shore, it can be fun to have a group theme.

When looking to advance your career, collaboration is king. Studies show that up to 70% of jobs are found through networking, so if you’re not meeting with people on a regular basis, working with a mentor, and building out your contacts on LinkedIn, you’re missing the boat.
