Job Search Tip#1 - Understanding the Competitive Environment(Contd.)

6. You must challenge your fears. 7. Think about it. Most people are dissatisfied with their jobs simply because they are trying to solve the right problem for the wrong employer. 8. Don't wait for someone to call you and give you a job. Invest in yourself and seek for opportunities to solve problems. 9. Life is how you look at it and what you make of it. You attitudes and perceptions will determine your actions. You have to be "inverse paranoid" to succeed in a competitive environment. Inverse paranoid, according to Sola O. 2006, means to believe that everything in life is conspiring together to help you succeed. 10. Nothing is impossible if you try hard. 11. The desire to grow and to make the most of ourselves lies within us. We all have a purpose to fulfill and this picture is painted to us by our ambitions. To be continued....

Job Search Tip #1 - Understanding The Competitive Environment

"Individuals and organizations who know 'why' will always be ahead of those who merely know 'how'". --- Sola Olubode When searching for a job, you need to understand these fundamental truths: 1. There is a job for everyone. 2. Finding the job that fits is usually the major challenge for most people. Winners do not not look for the right job; they make the job they have found the right one(Sola O., 2006). 3. Finding a job is job in itself because it involves you "selling yourself" to your prospective employer (Sola O., 2006). 4. Getting a job starts with an interview and hence you must set yourself to look for an interview and not a job (Sola O., 2006). 5. Deciding on your career should be a crucial step in getting a job on time. You need to decide what a suitable job is after a careful analysis of your own self. For example, if you don't know where you want to be in the next 5 years, why would anybody want to hire you?  A careful...
