On Today of all days I should be happy for a rest right????
All I can think about is when will I find the RIGHT job, the RIGHT Company and the RIGHT team? I have looked high and low I have put myself out there and focused on companies that I really want to work for. I recently spoke to another HR/Recruiter about the job hunt and found that they were working in catering doing a short gig. Is this the time to branch out looking into the culinary, bar, and other jobs that would take me away from what I love?
I think NO! I think that I need to focus on being positive, utilize my sourcing skills and keep on searching. I KNOW that the right place is out there for me! I have excellent skills, a go get em attitude that will help me to finesse and power through any deadline or situation. I am choosing to focus on the positive and stay upbeat through this economical downturn. I have some many blessings that I am thankful for!
So for all of you who are out of work on this Labor Day, do focus on the positive and get around people that are supportive and will help you stay focused. Reach out to your community and let people know what you are specifically looking for and what contacts you have that will aid in your search. Most companies are hiring based on who they KNOW. Employees are being asked "Do you know of anyone one that would has the skills and culture fit for our company". Talk about what you want in a position and what you have to offer. Don't settle for something that is mediocre. Your career path will change an average of seven times in your life time. So chin up and stay focused this Labor Day. You haven't Labored in vain!
