Now is the time to get a new job
Are you ready to jump ship? Find a new job? This is your time. Seriously, there has never been a better time to be looking for a job. I’m going to give you three tips to help you land your dream job. You’ll learn my T.P.A. Method in just a few minutes.
Let’s dive into today's tips:
Career Professionals, the first tip is not, I repeat, not to sit and hit apply 25 times! While it is still a numbers game, there’s a better way to spend your time. I’ll get to that in a minute.
Try using my TPA method:
-
Think
-
Plan
-
Action
You see the biggest mistake I see happening with career clients- they are so eager to get a new job they jump straight to the ACTION part and the results they get are:
-
They’re missing the mark altogether
-
Hearing crickets
-
Getting frustrated
Take some time to think about what you really want to do. I highly recommend taking the time to research companies and cultures and dive into your superpowers and talents. Are you using current industry words or does 2001 want MS Excel and Word back? Try Google Suite expert instead.
What’s important to you? And what are your deal breakers?
What is your personal brand? Shocked to hear personal brand and career in the same sentence? You shouldn’t be. In 2022, career professionals must create and establish their personal brand to stand out to recruiters and hiring managers.
Personal Branding is not just for Target, Apple and Nike anymore. Personal Branding helps set you apart and stand out online. Recruiters can tell when someone has invested in their LinkedIn profile and has taken the time to think about the words that they have typed on there. They can see when someone has created, defined and established their personal brand.
-
It's who you are and what your unique skills?
-
What do you bring to the table?
-
What are you passionate about?
-
What makes you different from everyone else
-
How do you want them to feel? Engaged, excited or calm and peaceful? Do you want to provoke thought? Are you strategic and analytical?
How does that come across on your LinkedIn profile? Oh, it's not coming across? I get that. You're the type of people that I work with. I take you from boring to branding on LinkedIn, from unknown to known, from invisible to being found!
After step #2 is completed, start researching companies and positions that are inline with your superpowers and talents and throw a couple “Reach ones” in the mix.
Are you seeing a path here? Does the path have anything to do with blindly applying for jobs? NO.
Now is the time to pivot, recreate or start new.
Which one are you going to do?
-
New field?
-
New organization
-
New business?
