Positivity about job hunting!!



For anyone who is job hunting right now how is it going? I may self am looking for work and want to find out from everyone how are you finding it all!! If you are someone who has filled in lots of application forms joined agencies and still not making progress don't give up.

I myself have been feeling a bit frustrated at times but remember to keep at it. Depending on what area of work you in have you maybe considered approaching companies and keep being proactive about it. If you are not already on Linkdin join its a great way of networking and carry on thinking positive thoughts.

 I know people looking will be coming from all spheres and all different situations but also if say no to opportunity you know you can do why haven't you applied. I am using the adage of if I confident enough and feel I fit the job spec why shouldn't I at least try to apply. Don't be fussy about pay etc.  In certain jobs there should be a cut off point etc but in this current economic climate can you afford to let minor things get in the way of a job.

Take a look at this blog below, it may not tell you how you can get that dream job etc. Hopefully it should inspire you though. http://blog.penelopetrunk.com/2009/03/06/5-things-to-do-when-youre-unemployed-hint-its-not-job-hunting/

I also hope if you are reading this and are job hunting you stick at being persistent, positive and see it as a on-going part of daily routine.Yes that last one may sound boring lol but if you don't keep on trying you won't ever get there and this requires enthusiasm.

Good luck!!
