Career Change Advice – Job Search Planning

If you want to find a new job in the shortest amount of time, you’re going to need a plan. In fact you should start every day with a job search plan until you find your new job!

Here are a few simple job search planning tips that should help!

1. Prepare a list of job search tasks that need to be done for the day. Include everything you can think of.

2. Prioritize your list and put the most important tasks first.

3. Put a star by the most important “must do” tasks.

4. Set a few absolute goals for the day, like…(the top 3 tasks maybe?)

5. Create a time estimate for completing each individual task.

6. On a separate piece of paper or in your day timer, plan your day to include the times when you’ll do your most important tasks.

7. Then go do them.

Now this is simple stuff right? But the thing is, even though we know this type of planning would help us, we often don’t do it. You know the saying, “1 minute of planning saves 10 minutes of work”. It’s not just a saying it’s a fact, planning gets better results.

If you follow this simple job search strategy every day, you’re probably going to find a job a lot faster!

To your job search success!
