How to Get a Job – The Right Frame of Mind

Friday, January 31, 2014

Today on Lets Get Working I would like to talk about the thoughts that go through your mind while you are looking for a job.

1. Change your attitude – applying for a job is all about how you can help the business, not how the business can help you.

The focus in your cover letter and the interview is how you can help the business.

2.Settle down – you will need to explain why you have moved from job to job.

Be prepared to give an idea of how long you plan to stick around. Be specific and intentional.

3. Fit the job to the skills rather than the other way around

Write a list of your skills – determine the businesses that will suit your skills

Make sure the job fits your personality

Be open and explore different ideas!

Until next time,
Enjoy the journey!
Martha!
