Are you a working professional who is trying to figure out:
- If you should pursue a second job?
- How to go about finding a second job?
- How to maximize your performance at two or more jobs?
Or are you a student ready to start your career, a blue-collar professional, or a stay-at-home parent looking to supplement your income or to fulfill your professional dreams and goals?
Then this is the book for you.
With practical advice and an insider’s perspective on how businesses work and how managers think, this guide will help you not just start a second job but thrive in it while not letting your primary job and primary relationships suffer.
Synopsis
The pandemic, job losses, the Great Resignation, rising inflation, and the dramatic increase in the cost of living has caused an explosion in information about side gigs and the gig economy. However, 99 percent of that information focuses on what side gigs to do and how to do them. There is almost nothing about how to integrate that side job into your current personal and work life to avoid burnout, legal or tax trouble, or a thousand other obstacles, so that it is not just a side gig, but a powerful tool to help achieve your financial and career goals.
Regardless of what kind of second job you take on, this book will guide you through the process of minimizing mistakes and maximizing your performance in both jobs, so that, while there are risks, you will be aware of them, be able to plan for them, and overcome them. This book will help insure that your second-job journey is a productive and successful one.
Key Features
You may assume that working for the same company for many years provides job security. This book will show you what really provides job security: diversifying your income streams. This book will show you how to improve and maintain your performance at your first job in order to build trust with your primary employer all while doing the same with a second job, so you can obtain true security.
It’s a handbook to help professionals like yourself navigate pitfalls that Human Resources often sets up to impede you from having a second job.
With this book you can understand how to jump start your second career, whether it’s a business or a second full-time or part-time job. There are many articles that tell you how to get a second job, and even on what kinds of “side-gigs” you can try, but not how to maintain your performance in that second job.
