How to Get the Exact Position You Desire
Everyone enjoys doing the kind of work for which they are best suited. An artist loves to work with paints, a craftsman with his or her hands, a writer loves to write. Those with less definite talents have their preferences for certain fields of business or industry. If America does anything well, it offers a full range of occupations, from tilling the soil and manufacturing, to marketing, commerce, and the professions.
Here are seven actions to take to guarantee yourself the exact position you wish:
First. Decide—and DEFINE briefly in writing—EXACTLY what kind of job you desire. If the job does not already exist, perhaps you can create it.
Second. Choose the specific company, or the specific individual, for whom you wish to work.
Third. Study your prospective employer as to policies, personnel, and chances of advancement.
Fourth. By analysis of yourself, your talents and capabilities, figure
WHAT YOU CAN OFFER and plan ways and means of giving advantages, services, developments, and ideas that you believe you can successfully deliver.
Fifth. Forget about a job Forget whether or not there is an opening.
Forget the usual routine of have you got a job for me?”
Concentrate on what you can give.
Sixth. Once you have your plan in mind, arrange with an experienced writer to put it on paper, in neat form and in full detail.
Seventh. Present it to the proper person with authority and he or she will do the rest. Every company is looking for people who can give something of value, whether it be ideas, services, or “connections.”
Every company has room for the individual who has a definite plan of action which is to the advantage of that company.

This line of procedure may take a few days or weeks of extra time, but the difference in income, in advancement, and in gaining recognition will save years of hard work at small pay. It has many advantages, the main one being that it will often save from one to five years of time in reaching a chosen goal.
Every person who starts, or gets in halfway up the ladder does so by deliberate and careful planning (excepting, of course, the Boss kid.)
