Searching for a new job can be taxing. Whether you’re currently unemployed or looking for a change from your current position, a job hunt typically involves hours of research, planning, and networking.
In a recent People in Transition Podcast, talent development expert Neha Ratnakar shares some tips that job seekers can implement when finding a path forward.
– Have a solid plan. Update your LinkedIn profile and CV to reflect the job position you are targeting.
– How you present yourself matters. A wrong introduction of yourself, by your partner, or even on social media can sabotage your brand.
– Use strategic volunteering to find a job offer if you are new to the job market.
– Maximize your career portfolio to showcase your skills during the job search.
– Always give every relevant job offer a shot. If you self-reject and don’t even try, your failure rate is 100%.
How else can you stay positive and focused during a job hunt?
