Job Searching In The Time of Corona

I just love this quote by Mandy - “Embrace the uncertainty. Enjoy the beauty of becoming. When nothing is certain, anything is possible”.

These feel like crazy and uncertain times to be job searching. However, know that the job market has always had an element of uncertainty, (even prior to Covid-19) and there are many jobs being created and available at THIS time.

The best way to meet the uncertainty is to TAKE ACTION.

►Avoid people and news sites focused on bad news about the job market

►Identify your skills, strengths, and attributes

►Determine how to articulate them to a potential employer ►Consider your value and contribution to an organization ►Refine your resume, LinkedIn profile and networking pitch

►Think ahead and continue to stay current in your industry through networking and professional development opportunities

►Ask for help

►Just take ONE step each day toward your job search or hashtag#career transition, (complete an application, follow up on a lead, make a new contact, begin an online course, etc.)

A successful job search demands that we get comfortable with uncertainty, embrace change, and trust the wait. We can do this!
