Landing a job or not in today’s world is not just about sending in a resume and a cover letter. It is all about being creative, dynamic and patient.
Creativity

You need to let your creative juices flow and guide your thinking in creating, innovating or improving something. What would this mean for you?
Dynamic You

One key one is technology, which is the fastest changing resources that we have. Keeping up with it, as much as possible is an advantage to anyone seeking to find a job. Home offices, online jobs and e-learning has overtaken the traditional office and classroom setups. How have you changed in the last 90 days to match the changing world?
Patience
Everything works within a timeframe. It is important that you work within a timeline as you seek for a job. This allows you not to waste time, pursuing a non-existent opportunity or aiming at the wrong opportunity. It also is important to know that certain skills required for jobs require your time to develop and sharpen. Patience with yourself is very key in building the skill set, working through time lines and generally working towards being your own employer. How patient are you in general?
Reality Check!
In some regions or industries, there may be a limited number of job openings or a high level of competition for available positions. This can make it challenging for individuals to find suitable employment opportunities. Economic downturns or recessions can lead to a decrease in job openings, company layoffs, and increased competition for jobs. During such periods, the overall job market can become more competitive and result in longer job search durations for individuals. Unfortunately, discrimination and bias can also impact job search outcomes. Factors such as age, gender, race, disability, or other personal characteristics can sometimes lead to unfair treatment or bias in the hiring process.
