If you thought working at a job was demanding, the alternative can be even more so - you can expend twice as much energy looking for a job
Searching for a rewarding job can be stressful, frustrating and more demanding than running a multi-million dollar corporation. It is our hope that by using this guide, you will be able to realize your dreams and secure the job and career you desire.
The Basics
These rules should be followed ALL the time - no exceptions.
Know your strengths and accept your
weaknesses
Not everyone can run a global empire, just as not everyone has the
talent to build a house. Recognize your skills and talents and
build upon them. Will you truly be happy managing a lumber mill
when you would rather be in the woods cutting the trees?
For the love of money?
Set your priorities BEFORE you apply for the position that will
double your salary, but will leave you no time for your family or
outside interests. Do not let a large increase in salary cloud your
perception of what will be expected of you. Know what you are
willing to sacrifice for what amount of money.
Be honest
Don't oversell yourself. During interviews it is important to
highlight your talents, but skilled interviewers can tell when you
are lying.
Be realistic
Will two years of experience be enough to get you the position of
CEO at IBM?
Be committed
Any journey, whether it's a stroll to the park or a quest to become
the next regional manager, begins with one step...then another...
Look at any successful person and you will see in them the drive
and determination to succeed. The most successful people have had
failures, but they have learned from them and continued on their
journey...they took another step...
Never stop growing
Be open to new ideas and realize that every day is a learning
experience.
Work hard, but play hard too
If you're married, don't overlook the most important people in your
life - your spouse and children. If you're single, be active
socially and help improve your community by volunteering your
talents and time.
Keep yourself healthy in body and
spirit
Eat right. Get enough rest. Don't worry about tomorrow what you
can't change today. Tomorrow will come soon enough.
Presently employed and looking to advance your career? Do not use your work email address when soliciting job offers on the Internet because your present employer may have access to your email files. Establish a new email account at one of the many free email services such as yahoo or gmail.
Remember that prospective employers will see that email address, so do not create a user name of "hot_for_you" or "studmuffin". Be as professional as possible when choosing your username.
Following are some of the resources that you should utilize when looking for a job.
