I am a member of the Career Collective, a group of resume writers and career coaches. Each month, all members discuss a topic, and this month’s topic is what to do when you are very discouraged in your job search. Please follow our tweets on Twitter #careercollective and see the links to the other articles at the bottom of this post.
You have:
- Revised your resume a thousand times, minimum.
- Spent months online, applying for thousands of jobs.
- Dragged yourself to hundreds of networking meetings. Or at least 5.
The result: Nada. Nothing. No new job. Waste of time and energy.
Well, maybe, or maybe NOT!

You’re not that crazy about your job and where it’s leading (or NOT leading). Other jobs or careers interest you, but you prefer to avoid making the proverbial out-of-the-frying-pan-into-the fire mistake.
So what do you do now?
Speaking as a person who has made the frying-pan-fire transition at least twice and had 5 majors in 5 years of undergraduate study (I’m interested in everything!), this is not a simple question to answer, particularly when you are working full time. Or, when you are looking for a job full time.
My advice: Try, before you “buy!”
Having also been unfortunate enough to discover in the last semester of my 2nd senior year in college when my student teaching experience convinced me teaching high school American History or English was probably the last thing I wanted to do, trying a job before you are committed to it is smart.
So, how? Read the rest of this entry »
