Unfortunately, many of us know how difficult it is to find a job today. Quite often, employers put forward too high requirements, which can only be met by a few. And sometimes it also happens that, having responded to a vacancy and being confident in your competence, you do not receive any answer at all. So what if you can't find a job for a long time?
Change requests
If it so happened that for a long time you cannot find a job, you first need to consider your requirements. For this it will be helpful to write them all down on a piece of paper. Immediately mark those that you feel are unshakable. For example, you strongly disagree with moving to another city. So, leave this point and do not return to it. What about the schedule? Let's say you're looking for a remote job. But maybe you will still be able to come to the office several days a week? Then it radically changes the matter! Be sure to edit your resume accordingly. Or, say, the expected salary. Think, perhaps, you will be satisfied with a slightly smaller amount? Lower your wage requirements and it is likely that there will be several companies ready to hire you at once.
Carefully analyze and revise all your wishes and try to soften them.
The best education is self-education
But if the change of requests did not bring any results, you need to pay attention to yourself. Is your position too common and you can hire a dozen other candidates for it? Don't you like your profession? Is work for you a daily hard labor and do you strive to quickly escape home? Then you should definitely think about changing your activity. No, you don't have to get another education for this. You can easily master the profession with the help of special courses, which, as a rule, last no more than two months. Moreover, today a huge number of different video lessons and even online webinars are presented on the Internet, which will also not be superfluous for those who decided to learn something new.
If you have always wanted to create websites, but graduated from a culinary college - go to courses for web-programmers; dreamed of selling real estate by the sea, but instead selling car parts - take a public speaking course and go straight to a real estate agency - prove that you are the one who will be able to sell; wanted to create graceful bouquets of flowers, but you create reports in the accounting department - more likely for floristry courses. Do not be afraid to try yourself in something new, to find other opportunities, because, as they say, it is better to do and regret than not to do and also regret.
Believe me, everything is really in your hands, and if you cannot find a job in your profession for a long time, then it is quite possible that the whole catch is that this is not your profession, that you are not doing your job and you rather need to change it.
Keep up with the times
And, of course, do not forget that life is changing very quickly. Yesterday we lived alone, and today it is completely different. If you can't find a job for a long time, look around and find what is in demand these days. Learn to write selling texts, promote sites, work with social networks, record your own master classes on video, start a blog and make money on it, hold a webinar and teach people what you can do …
These days there are tons of opportunities to start working and making money, and all you need is a little courage and a little patience.
