Job Search Skills
A Job search is a potentially stressful time, particularly for the mid to senior career professional who wants to make a job transition.
A combination of the effective skills, strategies and good opportunities, increase the likelihood of a good job match. However, employees who do not regularly practise their job search skills tend to suffer needlessly when they start their job search as they find their strategies dated and ineffective.
Some professionals, particularly those moving between regions, find that job search strategies that worked in one country may not transfer well to another country.
We equip individuals with both the right cultural and social mindsets that will increase the likelihood for better job matching, engagement as well as help them chart and develop their own careers.
Presented in half day and full day skill workshops, we assist individuals and small groups. Areas covered include:
-
Effectively identifying marketable skills
Generate skill inventories based on previous jobs, experience, motivators and demotivators, then compare and match them with employer expectations. - Networking
Understanding the process, the use of tools and tool design, and how to form, join and maintain networks. - The Interviewing Process
The purpose of the interview, expectations by all parties, techniques for face to face and teleconferencing and post interview etiquette. - The Resume
The purpose of the resume, the different levels of resume screening by HR departments and how to make resumes searchable by head hunters and talent scouts. - Salary
How to research, benchmark, position and manage expectations during the negotiation phase. - Working in gender centric organizations
Power structures, alliances and management styles of male and female bosses and subordinates; common mistakes made by men and women in interpreting environments and how to navigate them.
