Mistakes Unemployed People Make In Job Search Process

By Dorcas Karuana,
Majority of people think that their dream job is too hard to achieve, too competitive and “oh well it’s all about luck”. All of these are true actually, but why should that stop you? The really determined people will always succeed and, in many ways, need people to give up and find it too much like hard work to make way for
Of course it is a very tough time economically to find employment straight after university, but it is by no means impossible. It might take several months longer to find a job after graduating than maybe it did five years ago, but there is work out there. My chosen career has always been competitive but I never thought about other people going for the same jobs. It’s human nature to compare your progress to your peers but I suppose my advice would be to try not to. Be focused on what you want and how you are going to get it.
Here are mistakes to avoid while job searching.
1. Think they will never find another a job again so they convey desperation rather than confidence (it shows).

2. Minimize all the skills they have to offer a new employer.

3. Allow feelings of hopelessness/despair (it’s only natural) to paralyze them from rebounding.

4. Forget their network of family and friends, etc, are the best source for referrals.

5. Don’t hunt enough (looking for a job should be a full time job in itself ~ put in the time).

6. Take a closed door, “no” answer or not being chosen for a position too personally.

7. Don’t take care of themselves (get enough sleep, eat right, exercise, etc).

8. Give in to bitterness and anger (it’s not your loved ones fault that you lost your job).

9. Overlook sharpening skills or learning new ones.

10. Forget there are many opportunities online.

Your Attitude – The Difference Maker

There is a popular saying that attitude is everything. In other words attitude is king. I didn’t understand it until when I studied the animal kingdom. The lion is not the largest of the animals and yet it’s the king of the jungle, controlling the jungle.
The elephant in my opinion should be the king of the jungle because it’s bigger than the lion and maybe the strongest but it’s not. There are other animals that are bold like the lion and still could not match and stand as the number jungle citizen.
Then I later found out that there was something the lion has that most animals don’t and that one thing is “attitude”. Attitude is the difference maker. Life is not all about money, love, smartness alone. You need the right attitude to keep you going. Because several challenge will come your way.
Your greatest enemy in life is your last success. A person who doesn’t have the right attitude will find value in his last success and that keeps him from doing something else or moving forward. Attitude makes you to see your last success as a stepping stone for tomorrow’s success.

Power of a positive attitude

When I was watching a documentary on how Google came to be, in history channel, It was said that the founders of Google, even though are billionaires, still maintain the same lifestyle prior to start of Google and I said to myself, that is attitude. Attitude makes you to maintain your lifestyle even when there is change in your status and the size of your pocket.
Guard your attitude and use it positively. This will make you grow over and over again, succeeding in all aspect of your life. And when there is a setback, attitude gives you the confidence to move on. Attitude is really the difference maker.
