In my classes and coaching I have asked, “So how many resumes have you sent out?” I get incredible responses, “Oh I have sent hundreds!” Then I ask how they applied, and I get the same answer. "Well, I responded to all the openings on Monster and CareerBuilder."
There is no thought, no direction with that approach. Just a click and sit approach is not going to get you noticed.
I find that seeking work should be as much of an effort as if you were working. You need to find, locate and then impress. A position is not given, it is earned.
So did you see what happened on Jerry Springer today?
I hope not. If you find yourself looking forward to the next episode, you might want to consider another approach to getting a new position.
