JOB SEARCH TIP: Rapid learning— insights on strengths from Dr. Clifton

12 Aug

DOC 2

As referenced in prior posts, Dr. Donald O. Clifton identified five indicators that can help you determine if you have strengths which you could promote and apply to a new job.

The third is rapid learning.

Have you noticed there are some tasks for which you seem to “catch on quickly”?

That could be rapid learning.

Have there been new jobs where you were actually ahead of the training?

That could be rapid learning.

Have there been jobs where you’ve helped other new employees who are struggling with tasks you find easy?

That could be rapid learning.

If you’re experiencing rapid learning, you’re well on your way to finding tasks for which you are optimally suited.

Find them.

The posts for the next couple weeks are inspired by a man who inspired me, Donald O. Clifton.
