Fulltime Job Search - Schedule 15 events per week

1/21/2018

0 Comments

 
The new year is off an running.  The Holidays create a change in schedule which sometimes places a drag on our job hunt routine.  It is time to get things back on track.  Remember that a person in full-time job search mode should be achieving a schedule of 15 events per week.  

So, what is an event?  An event as an activity which ties directly to your job search efforts.  An event is typically 90 - 120 minutes block of time.  An event can fall into any of the following types of activities:
  • Profile Development - this speaks to all the things which result in your ability to present "who you are" to a potential employer or to someone interested in promoting you to the market place;
  • Research - efforts spent to identify target industries, target businesses, even target job descriptions along with the time researching in support of interviews;
  • Skill Development/Enhancement - this includes efforts to document skills already mastered and to enhance those skills with current/cutting edge enhancements or for particular application in targeted job positions.  Acquiring additional certifications can fit in this category;
  • Networking (including 20 minute coffees) - the most important activity of your job search (if done effectively);
  • Qualification/Negotiation - very important activities focused on the time after an offer has been made.
At Sabbatical Search, we teach participants to use a rolling schedule model to fill their calendars.  Join us this Monday to learn more about keeping your schedule full!
