What Am I Doing Wrong?

The question of "What Am I Doing Wrong?" may be a common question that many Job Seekers are asking themselves. Especially after they have been searching for employment for several months. It is natural to think that you could be doing something wrong especially if this is the first time you have been unemployed. You may be thinking that your resume isn't good enough or maybe you think your resume is too long. Whatever your situation is, you may not be doing anything wrong. So stop beating yourself up because that activity won't help. Furthermore, you may be doing a lot things right and it may still take a lot time to generate interviews. In many cases there are more job seekers than there are jobs.

After several months of searching for employment you may even exhaust websites to use in your daily search for employment. My recommendation is to focus on things that you can control. I will provide a brief checklist of activities for Job Seekers:

• Get your resume critiqued and develop a Job Search Plan.
• Create a cover letter to introduce your resume.
• Ask other people you know what they are doing in their Job Search.
• Don't conduct your Job Search alone. Two minds are better than one.
• Research the companies you are interested in for job opportunities.
• Determine if relocation would increase your job prospects.
  

Know matter what never stop believing in yourself. As long as you believe there is an opportunity for things to get better. Watch your tongue and remember to speak positive things into your life.
