How do you keep your job search moving forward this summer?
Here are 5 tips to heat up your job search:
1) Capitalize on Seasonal Events: Summer is a terrific time to network. Using personal and social gatherings to let people know you are looking is an excellent strategy.
2) Keep a Job Search Schedule: Yes, it's summer, but don't be lulled into laziness. Even if it is just an hour a day, put structure in place to keep you going.
3) Build a Network: Form a group of like-minded job seekers to keep your summer job search on track.
4) Take Stock of Your Resume and Skills: Summer is the perfect time to assess and update your resume and skills.
5) Get Outside: Warm weather is the prime time for outdoor home improvement projects, and by helping your neighbors you can help your career at the same time. While you're helping that neighbor, you can share that you're job hunting and tap into someone else's network.
When it comes to your job search, you can use the summer months to find an ideal career fit. Your time and effort can reap big rewards and even land you a new job before autumn.
