Many of us are capable of benefiting companies in all sorts of ways. It’s great you recognize that. Too many don’t. Usually job seekers pigeon hole themselves and fail to consider all of the tools they have at the ready to put to use for an employer.

You are right about titles not being a true indication of what a job involves. Needs change once hired, too. The important thing is to have a fair understanding of what individual skills, abilities and resources you have to offer. Itemize them and ask yourself, and the employer, in each situation which matter. Which would likely play the greatest roles in a successful outcome. We can’t sell ourselves and evaluate opportunities well with generalizations. Getting down to the specifics and finding how you fit from multiple angles is the way to win.

While I do agree with you in terms of chasing job that one is not sutied for, how do you market yourself if your education and background is of a nature that would fit into many different companies? Job titles are not always what they appear to be and even job descriptions usually have a disclaimer that includes other duties that may or may not fit you.

I’m really enjoying your blog……
