In this podcast, I'm sharing 2 methods of Job-Hunting Strategies:
1) Desperado Job Hunting Strategy - a survival mode method where you are in desperation to just get a job to be able to put food on the table, to say the least. It is maybe, controversial to some but, hey, it's a do-or-die situation here!
2) Effective Job Hunting Strategy - a method where you have the time to plan your move and strategize for that dream job. Slow but sure.
Do check it out! Good luck!
A personal SWOT analysis is a very good tool to help you when you are embarking on a job search.
Why?
It provides insights based on your personality strengths and weaknesses, what threats you see ahead of you, and what opportunities are present around you now and in the future in terms of jobs and career. It also gives you a REALITY CHECK and allows you to step back and have a relook at your job-hunting strategies.
For those who are employed and in need of some “career shaking up”, Personal SWOT allows you to take a look at what works and what doesn't in your current job.
This podcast helps to give insights on how to apply Personal SWOT to help you in your job search. Good luck!
Welcome, everyone! In this course, which I had simply named, “Job-Hunting Strategies”, I want to share with you the step-by-step methods in getting the job that you want.
This course also gives you an overview of the perspective of a Hiring Manager and his or her expectations before shortlisting for hire. The two truths about the Job Market, which I hope we can always remember when we are actively looking for a job. Number 1, there will always be jobs out there! Please never put a single thought in your mind that there is no job for me, the job opportunities are very limited and they are only reserved for foreign talents. These are demoralizing thoughts that can frustrate you and lead you to pessimism. So please, cancel that debilitating thoughts!
Number 2 would be the fact that whether you can find these jobs depends on your methods of hunting and this is where I'm going to share some of the strategies that I hope will be beneficial for you. Before I even start to discuss the strategies for your job-hunting, let us address “the elephant in the room” – the burning question in everyone’s minds: Are there Jobs in Singapore? Ok, I will talk about this and I will share the steps to get data on the number of available jobs. This whole course comprises of six units. So let us begin with this very first unit: Job market statistics within the Singapore context. Let’s start!
You have just promoted, BUT you are now afraid. Why? Because you are no longer an individual contributor. You are the Boss, managing a team. You have to make difficult decisions, make the judgment calls and managing people, whom many used to be your equals. Not easy, right? But fret not! This podcast shares how you can get started and how you can start defining your own leadership styles.
