If you are about to begin a new job search then you need to plan and manage your job search just as you would any other project at work or in life. This will allow you to do it effectively and in a timely manner whilst still having time for other important things in your life. Managing a project involves clear stages, specific steps, and well defined outcomes. If you are unsure of where to start a careers advisor will often be able to help you focus on what you need to be doing and when.
The first thing you need to do is have a think about the types of job or industry you want to work in. This will allow you to check if you have the necessary qualifications and experience of ir you need to return to education before starting to apply.
You might have some concerns as you start the job hunting process but if you can identify these concerns, you will have taken the first step in overcoming them.
If you have been in the same job for several years, the job search process may not be something you’ve experienced in a while and this can make it a little daunting.
