Quick Tips
Dos & Don'ts to advance your job search
  • Review your plan regularly.
  • Be flexible and revise your plan as necessary.
  • Don't over plan - you might get a case of "analysis paralysis".
  • Be disciplined about taking action and you'll see results.
 
Make a plan
Plan your work and work your plan, as they say. Without a specific plan in mind - and on paper - your search will be an aimless one. Sure you may stumble upon an opportunity, but your chances of success are much greater if you create a plan - and stick to it. Be disciplined but flexible, as circumstances are bound to change along the way. The important thing is to map out a course of action that you can track. Putting some stakes in the ground will help keep you focused and moving forward.
