Summary
It could be finding an awesome, new job, getting that coveted promotion, pivoting to a new type of role or reinventing yourself and starting all over again.
It's a tough time to start looking for a new job.
The internet traffic of major job sites shows that there are considerably less new jobs posted today compared to this time last year.
It may not be easy, but if you truly desire to move ahead in your career, find a new job and improve your life, here's how you can start today, despite all of the challenges and hardships.
Read anything you can about the type of job you're going after and how easy or hard it's going to be to find a new opportunity.
Treat it as if it's another job or your primary job.
You should tailor your résumé for each job you apply for to ensure that it addresses the needs of the company.
Send out emails to people you've worked with in the past, old college friends, business associates and all others who could potentially turn you onto a job lead or supply a referral or recommendation to a key insider at the company you'd like to join.
How many searches did I run on job boards, company career sites and job aggregators?
What's the number of résumés submitted? Were they tailored to fit the specific job qualifications and key words used to get the résumé through the applicant tracking systems?
