			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: #000000;">Reading up on<span style="color: #000080;"> <a href="http://twitter.com/wadds" target="_blank">@Wadds </a></span>blog (well worth a daily read) I noticed a great <span style="color: #000080;"><a href="http://www.speedcommunications.com/blogs/wadds/2009/06/12/jobs-and-life-skills-for-graduates-godin-style/" target="_blank">post</a> </span>based on the teachings of the fabulous<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seth_Godin" target="_blank"> Seth Godin </a>who had some real gems of advice for the aspiring employee:</span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Spend twenty hours a week running a project for a non-profit</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Teach yourself Java, HTML, Flash, PHP and SQL</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Volunteer to coach or assistant coach a kids sports team</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Start, run and grow an online community</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Give a speech a week to local organizations.Write a regular newsletter or blog about an industry you care about</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Learn a foreign language fluently</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Write three detailed business plans for projects in the industry you care about</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Self-publish a book</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Run a marathon</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Brilliant! If that doesn&#8217;t float your boat, why not give <span style="color: #000080;"><a href="http://www.codeworks.net/" target="_blank">Codeworks Connect </a></span>a call.  They have an excellent number of schemes and contacts that will be advantageous in this day and age &#8211; if you have time to pick up the phone between the projects, the sports teams and the marathon!</span></p>
