 Getting a job search back on the right track
With 24-hour news networks pummeling jobseekers with bleak employment numbers on a consistent basis, it can be hard for some of these individuals to stay optimistic about their career goals. However, The Globe and Mail recently provided a few tips that may help people stay positive during their search for work.

For instance, the news source recommended that jobseekers stop comparing themselves to others and instead focus on themselves. As these individuals reflect on their passions, past mistakes and accomplishments, they may be able to get their career strategy back on its proper path.

If people realize their professional network is not suited for the type of career they have an interest in then they should change it, according to the news outlet. The right network is about quality, not quantity, and should reflect a jobseeker’s attitude and mindset.

As it will take time to achieve their career goals, the news source suggested that jobseekers execute their plan on a daily basis. CNBC also suggested that people devote three to six hours each day to their job search, which, in turn, may help them feel a little more optimistic.

Knowledge can also lead to more confidence in one’s professional abilities. As a result, jobseekers may want to take a career test so they have a strong sense of what type of position is best for them.
