What's the best place to start with a job search?
The onus is on you, the job seeker, to:
- Define your plan & set goals
- Execute the search
- Close the deal and secure a role
A recent college grad said, “The job search is like another class – in order to be successful in it, you have to dedicate time, energy, and resources to it.”
As you look ahead to your end goal, consider other experiences you have had up to this point that required you to invest something to achieve your desired result. Think about other people in your personal network that you have observed put forth significant effort in pursuit of a goal.
What qualities led to their success?
What got you your current position will not get you where you want to go next without personal and professional growth. This theory can be applied in broad terms to the entire job search experience, but it can also set the foundation for the way you view each step in the process.
