This is my top pick: clicking on the “Your Career” link, you’ll find some of the most helpful and high-quality articles on career management such as how to impress interviewers, change jobs or work with search consultants. There is even a quiz called “Culture Match”, which helps you identify the kind of organizational culture that works best for you.
This is the web site of one of the most insightful books on career management: “The 5 patterns of successful careers” by Jim Citrin and Richard Smith. The web site gives you the outline of the most important ideas in the book. Also a test, “Are you an extraordinary executive?”, which will show whether you are on to make an extraordinary career..
The career portal of the Wall Street Journal has a wealth of career management articles on topics like “career killers”, “climbing the ladder” or “surviving a career crisis”. The good thing about these articles is that they give you hands-on advice with many examples.
Everything that you ever wanted to know on CEOs… This web site presents you with the most important research, press releases and statistics on CEO careers, CEO charisma, CEO reputations or CEO departures. This is no doubt the most comprehensive web-based resource on CEOs.
This web site contains career management resources for executives and has probably the most up-to-date information on the executive job market: the industries and functions where most executive-level hiring takes place, the number of months it takes to fill those positions, etc. I subscribe to the “Executive Insider”, the weekly free newsletter of Execunet, which brings the most relevant articles, books and statistics on executive career management.
This is the “career counsellor” section of the career site of CIO Magazine. Here you can read advice to issues such as “I report to a director who was my close friend before he was promoted. I am not sure how to handle the situation…”, or “I graduated in computer information systems and had a detour. I am not sure how to get back on track”. If you need advice, you can also submit your own question.
This is probably the most comprehensive and helpful resource when you want to know more about a particular company or an industry, and what you are looking for are the opinions, the insights from the people who have once been or currently are insiders to that company or industry.
A very similar web site to www.vault.com.
This web site is a vital tool for your interview preparation. Hoovers’ contains objective and very comprehensive research on companies. The free version of Hoovers’ lists the most important facts, financial information and all the latest news on a particular company. The “subscription” version, among others, will give you the analysis of how the company is doing compared to its competitors.
A good resource for networking: this web site lists the current and maybe the most recent position of the people with whom you have lost touch and have no idea where to find them.
