To: AFUMCCareerResource
The job market is tough; there is no argument there. We are in a recession
like no other in recent times. People are getting hired every day though, so
what may be keeping you unemployed?
As a successful job search coach, I see mistakes people make in their job
search that keeps them from finding and landing that job; mistakes that fall
into three major categories. No, it is not the format of their resume. It
does not help if the resume is not eye catching - that's not one of the
biggest mistakes though. It is not a lack of available jobs; there are
millions of jobs out there. Here are the three categories of mistakes that
can keep a talented, professional, and experienced person from getting a
job. The good news is there is something you can do to correct these
mistakes.
Mistake 1 - A Bad Attitude
Mistake 2 - Not Knowing Your Competitive Edge
Mistake 3 - The Wrong Approach
As a job seeker, assess yourself in these three areas. With a great
attitude, knowledge of your competitive advantage, and networking, you will
greatly increase your chances of getting that next job.
