In this case, the first thing you should do is to let go of your guilt or bitterness, knowing that you have not wasted your time. You have definitely learned something from your previous experience, and you are more experienced now than when you got your last job.

Try to use your energy through searching and applying for as many jobs as you can, that look appropriate to you. Don’t just sit back after one interview or opportunity, keep on searching until you sign that contract. This will also help to keep you from thinking about the last interview you had and driving yourself crazy from wondering whether or not you got the job.

Be Your Own Career Coach

Posted by Nazia 1 February, 2010 (0) Comment

We all are great at giving advice to each other. However, we tend to listen to our own advice less. Why is that so? If we are acting like psycho therapist for our friends and families so than why can’t we act the same for ourselves and stop relying on others to give us advice. Your advice given to yourself cannot benefit anyone else as much as it can for you. So stop wasting your mind and words trying to steer others on to your track. Instead spend time and energy in listening to your voice, and trying to practice the right advice for yourself. Career Coaching

Listening to your own voice helps you a great deal while surfing through the phase of job and career walks. You tend to rely heavily on other’s advice when it comes to anything, and I mean anything in the working environment. You are so prone to listening to others and deafening your own voice that instead of acting like you would you start acting like other would in that situation.

Don’t smile without any reason and only smile if it is required and if you find to smile on. You can practice in front of your friend and mirror.

How To Maintain Your Position In The Current Workplace And Make A Smooth Exit

Posted by Noor 29 October, 2009 (0) Comment

Finding a new job is a very hectic task. Once you accomplish this task you feel very relaxed and stress free. It certainly feels like all your dreams have suddenly come true. You start assuming that your responsibilities towards your current job have ended.

leaving workplace

This assumption of yours is however wrong because its important for an individual to resign from the job on a good note rather than on a bad one. Therefore, before resigning from your present job you should feel responsible to complete the duties that have been already assigned to you.

After you have completed all your due assignments, you then prepare your resignation letter. But before this you also need to ensure that you have signed a formal agreement regarding the job start date with your new boss. Otherwise you will not only be insulted in your own eyes but also incur the risk of losing your current job.
