Like most every kid, I was given “chores” I was do around the house. Specifically, I was told to “get my chores done.”
Sometime along the way I realized the chores are never “done”. You complete them one day and then the same chores are there for you the next day.
When it comes to your job search, there will be some activities that will/should also never be done:
~ You need to keep networking, increasing the number of people who know, as the next contact could be very important to your search,
~ You must continue to follow up on every job opportunity that is still open, letting them know you’re still interested,
~ You need to continue doing your homework, learning about companies, markets and trends.
~ You need to continuing preparing for each interview, making sure you know how to tell your story to a way that helps you advance.
~ Even after you land, you should still keep up the chore of networking, which can help you learn about your current job and prepare you for the next.
Want to give yourself the best chance to land a new job?
Embrace your chores.
