Looking for work is possibly the most difficult aspect of finding a job. It’s as if you graduated from college with the skills that nobody wants or needs. Or that all employers are looking for “experienced people, and this is a mystery how anyone ever became ‘experienced’ and if that’s the only type of person who is employed! Don’t feel bad about it. In the same place you are, you are not alone.
There are plenty of others who are in the same position. It is unlikely that you will be exactly the same within five years. You have to be able to see the entire picture of the job market by looking at it with new eyes. Here are some tips 1) Consider the world with a wide mind.
To give an illustration, I’ll pick one who has just graduated, and who holds earned an English degree. They’ve had their eyes set for a while to become a teacher and are presented with a piece of paper that claims they’ve learned everything they have to know, but then discover that nobody is hiring an educator. They have spent their time focusing on one thing that they forgot about other possibilities. They glance at a job listing at present and find nothing on it that they’re competent to perform. They give up hope.
If you have an open mind, you’ll begin to realize that you could be more than teaching. It is essential to accept each job as a challenge and recognize it as a fact Life Itself will deal you an odd hand while everyone else is playing. If you conduct a thorough search, you’ll discover it is possible for an English major may be hired as tech writer. An English major may also travel to other countries and even teach in exotic locations for those who have jobs available for them. An English major could also do content writing for cash, through the internet. Keep hope alive.
2.) Think about apprenticeships and internships.
If you’re looking for an opening, you’ll discover that a business is offering apprenticeships or internships for people to experience what it’s like working in the company. These internships/apprenticeships don’t always come with pay but they always come with the word that employers are looking for: ‘Experience’.
An internship/apprenticeship can be taken even if it isn’t in the field you have the degree! If those who are taking internees/apprentices agree to take you, you can add what you learn, as an internee/apprentice, to your skill set and make yourself more valuable to the job market. This can allow you to say “yes” to the question “Do you have work experience?”
3.) Be aware that you might need to work working on a project you don’t want perform while searching for the job you’ve been dreaming of.
A lot of business owners didn’t think they would eventually become business owners. They were employed as a cook, or waiter at a restaurant as this was all there was for them to be doing in the town they resided in. They didn’t want to work in this field, however they went for it and they laughed as they worked. Thirty years later, they were the owners of the first restaurant. They they also purchased new restaurants.
They soon had 130 restaurants spread across three different regions. They were the head of the quick-service chain. Their dream was to become a builder since they decided to think about the possibility of a different career and worked hard and were successful, they became wealthy and successful. They were so successful that they could take their kids to schools to study the art of building.
These three factors could make or break you on the job market that demands flexibility and an optimistic attitude to life regardless of where life will take you.
