Early in my career I was living alone in Madison, WI, and caught a nasty case of the flu that left me miserable, isolated, and exhausted. It was a season I never wanted to experience again.
Well, you guessed it, a few years later I ended up in a situation that made me feel miserable, isolated, and exhausted, except this time it was my job and not the flu.
Can you imagine going to a job that basically gave you flu-like symptoms every day? *shudders*
So whether you’d rather get the flu so you can miss a week or two of work or you’re just ready to move on, here’s how you speed up your job search.
NETWORKING
“But Ashley I hate networking or I’ve tried but it never works.”
So what?!? Do it anyway.
True story… my client applied for her dream job but had no connections at the company, so she hit up a few people in her alumni group (complete strangers btw). Turns out, someone works on the team she’s trying to join.
No lie, 30 minutes later she has an interview invitation.
Don’t miss this…
A complete stranger helped her get an interview for her dream job…simply because she asked.
Want to see what she said in her message? Just reply to this email and I’ll send it to you because your job search has to include networking.
Opportunity Awaits,
Ashley
