What is the frst step anyone follows when ready to pursue a new job?
1- Update a resume
2- Send it to as many employers as possible
and
3- Wait for a response
Follow this formula today and you will be looking for employment for a very
long time. Although this process worked at one time, it does not work today.
Unlike the average applicant who follows just two steps when pursuing a career
(update a resume and send it out to as many employers as possible), successful
applicants follow fve distinct steps.
“Without goals, and
plans to reach them, you are like a ship
that has set sail with no destination.”
