Ji L Press Release

Kiwi Career Specialist Invited To Work With Dick Bolles - Author of the Worlds Most Popular Career Guide

Tom O'Neil, a leading New Zealand career specialist, has been personally invited to San Francisco to take part in an international course run by Dick Bolles, author of the worlds most popular career guide ‘What Color Is Your Parachute’, selling over 10 million copies internationally.

Tom O'Neil, Managing Director of CV.CO.NZ, has contributed a six page section on CV development and interview tips to the guide over the last two years, and has subsequently seen his key tool, the O’Neil Major Achievements Questionnaire© (OMAQ©), now translated into 20 different languages.

In recognition of this achievement, Dick and his wife Marci have awarded the ONLY SCHOLARSHIP to Tom to attend their $3,000 career leadership course as well as stay at their personal home in Danville, San Francisco.

“I was blown away with the offer” commented Tom. “This guide has been the ‘gold standard’ of career search for the last 35 years, so I am very excited that I will have the opportunity to learn directly from the inventor of career management internationally." The course will focus on in-depth career management techniques as well as assist career specialists in helping their clients to develop a full repertoire of highly effective career development and job hunting skills and tools.

‘What Color Is Your Parachute’ has been a steady global franchise and is released each year, ensuring it includes leading trends in international career management. Both a New York Times and Business Week best seller, the guide was recently chosen by the USA Library of Congress as ‘One of the 25 books that have shaped readers lives’.
