Tagged: where the jobs are

On the Jan 20, 2013 edition of Work with Marty Nemko, I'll talk with community college career-training specialists Randy Tillery and Mark Martin about Bay Area pockets of opportunity in manufacturing--for example, well-paying jobs in producing medical devices, short-run machine-tooled products, etc.  And how to train for them in 1 to 2 years--no bachelor's or even associate degree required.  Plus you can call in for customized advice from them as well as a three-minute Workover from me.

I will have made five presentations during the Commonwealth Club's month on The Future of Work. In the Sep. 2, 2012 edition of Work with Marty Nemko, I distill those presentations into one hour on:

• under-the-radar careers for 2013 and beyond
• ahead-of-the-pack strategies for landing a good job
• not-obvious strategies for getting ahead (or at least not laid off)
• how to beat the odds against successful self-employment.

Work with Marty Nemko is heard Sundays from 11 am to noon on KALW, 91.7 FM, San Francisco.
