Check out the Job Market Before You Start a Search
Check out the Job Market Before You Start a SearchCheck out the Job Market Before You Start a SearchThere can be many reasons why youre thinking about departureing a job search, and there are plenty of good reasons to quit your job. Your career with your current employer could feel like its going nowhere, youre bored, and the ort isnt challenging, you would love to make mora money, or perhaps you want to do something different with the next phase of your working life. Find out What Jobs Are Available Before you think about starting an active job search, turning in your resignation, and giving two weeks notice, take some time to investigate what the job market is going to be like for someone with your credentials. Job searching is a personal endeavor, and even a good job market overall might not translate into success for you if you lack in some of the top skills employers are looking for. Thats why it makes sense to spend some time researching if you dont have to find a job immed iately. Start slowly, find out what positions are available, and learn how you stack up against the competition. Consider starting a passive job search while youre investigating options and getting prepared. There are easy strategies you can implement at your current position to help make yourself well-positioned for a job hunt. Employers may start seeking you out and, if they do, that will make your job search even easier. Factors to Consider The first factor to consider when starting a job search isnt the unemployment rate, which is currently low. Its what the job market is like for a candidate with your skills, experience, and education level. That depends on what type of position youre seeking and the qualifications you have. It can be a little more complicated to figure out if youre considering a career change or a job thats a step or two up from your current role. There is a wealth of data online you can use to discover what youre worth, what salary you should be looking f or, which companies are hiring candidates like you, and what the pool of available job openings is like. Review these tips for checking on the job market before starting a job search, so youll be well informed and in a position to fast-track your hunt for a new job. How to Check out the Job Market Figure Out What You Want to Do Do you want a job in the same industry or are you looking for a change? Would you like a similar position to the one you have or are you considering a different role? Do you have the skills you need to be competitive if youre making a change? If youre thinking about a career switch, use these free career quizzes to generate some ideas. Once you have a list of options, youll be able to determine how easy it will be to find a new job in that field. Estimate How Long It Will Take One of the tricky parts of job searching is that it can be hard to calculate how long it will take to find a new job. The more you earn, the longer it can take. Candidates in a high -level position typically spend more time getting hired than an entry-level applicant. Your qualifications need to closely match the jobs for which youre applying to up your chances of getting hired quickly. Find Out What Youre Worth There are free salary calculators you can use to determine how much you are worth in todays marketplace. Input your job title, company, location, education, and experience to get customized estimates of your salary potential. Also, use advanced search options on job sites to search by salary and job title to see if the results match your estimates and expectations. Check out Job Listings Once you know what you want to do, and how much you want to make, you can use the advanced search options to find job listings. Search by job title, experience, education, location, salary range, type of position, and more criteria to narrow down your options. Start Networking Networking can help you learn more about the job market, and it can help you get hired. It can also help you find out more about possible career options, get the inside scoop on companies and jobs, and connect with people who can boost your career. If you havent built a robust career network, now is the time to get started on getting one in place. Next Start the Application Process Refresh Your Resume If your resume hasnt been updated recently, take the time to give it a makeover. Be sure to include keywords and skills related to the type of job youre searching for. Create a Cover Letter Once youve written your first cover letter, you will be able to update and edit it to highlight your qualifications that are a match for the jobs for which youre applying. It will be easy to customize it each time you apply. Make a Match Before you put in an application, take the time to match your qualifications to the job. If you dont have all the qualifications listed in the job posting, consider whether its worth your time applying. If theres a strong applicant pool, you probably won t be considered if you are short on job requirements. Apply Directly Most employers have job listings on their website. Create a list of companies youd love to work for, use these tips to get (and stay) on their prospective employee radar,check them out on Glassdoor.com, and apply directly on the company website. Get Your Applications In Its quick and easy to apply for positions on the major job sites like Indeed.com, Glassdoor.com, and Dice.com. Youll have a head start because youve already taken a look at what jobs are available. If you have time, tweak your resume, so its a perfect fit, and write a custom cover letter for each position. Otherwise, edit the template you created, so its a strong match. Use Apps to Expedite Your Job Search Most job sites have apps you can use to simplify the process. Sign up for email job alerts to get notified of new postings as soon as they are listed. If youre one of the first applicants to apply, you will up your chances of getting selected for an interview. Keep Applying for Jobs Dont slow down when you start getting emails or calls for interviews. You wont know which jobs will result in job offers, so continue to move ahead with your job search until you have a job offer, youve accepted it, and its been confirmed by the employer.

3 big challenges to imagining the future of work
3 big challenges to imagining the future of work3 big challenges to imagining the future of workBack when I was in my 20s and about to step into the real world, there was no discussion about working remotely, or wanting to be mentored.Im 41 years old now, but back in the90s, there was a completely different set of expectations about work. You got smacked around. You paid your dues. You worked hard and didnt expect your employer to give you life advice or guidance as to how you could climb the ladder faster. Thats what college was for- at least, thats what employers expected it to be.Follow Ladders on FlipboardFollow Ladders magazines on Flipboard covering Happiness, Productivity, Job Satisfaction, Neuroscience, and moreBut todays workplace looks nothing like it did twenty or thirty years ago.In some ways, the changes are obviousworking remotely, for example, being the product of todays new digital landscape.In 2017, The New York Times reportedthat 43 percent of employed Americans spe nd at least some time working remotely. Then,in 2018, CNBC reportedthat 70% of people globally work remotely at least once per week. Thats a lot of people not showing up to an office (which, ten years ago, was a non-negotiable requirement).But working remotely, for example, is just the tip of the iceberg.The truth is, some of the biggest workplace shifts have much more to do with education and communication.We now live in a world thats determined by signals.Where you went to school. Who youre connected to on LinkedIn. How many followers you have on Instagram. All of behauptung things communicate, at a glance (and at scale), who someone is and where they fit into the hierarchy in society.Sometimes, we forget things didnt use to be this way. Back in the old days, resumes couldnt be crawled at scale using LinkedIn data and its ilk, and it was mucksmuschenstill possible for you to randomly connect with someone on a train- or interview with a company simply because they didnt know any be tter.But thats not how the working world operates anymore. Contrast that to today and, Over 80 percent of employers and 90 percent of recruiters review social media profiles sometimes or all the time for insight on candidates, according to a recruitment study byThe Martec Group.Yet, with all these new digital tools at our disposal, 63% of recruiters report an inability to find qualified candidates as their primary challenge.The reason is that the future of work is going to be dependent upon more than some simple qualification parameters.With the rise of automation, weve now created a workforce built upon keywords.When a recruiter is looking for a candidate, theyre plugging a few parameters into a technology tool or platform (college, degree, years of experience, previous title, etc.). Theyre looking for the tool to tell them who they should be looking for, which inherently rules out any and all spontaneity. It fundamentally removes the option for a candidate that may not have any of those relevant keywords in their background, but culturally might be the perfect fit for your organization. Thats the world we live in today- and even though weve removed a lot of areas with friction with these digital tools, the entire process of discovering meaningful connections is still largely broken.These are the problems I find myself thinking through with my team atOlmo, as we imagine what a world ofmeaningfulconnections looks like in the digital age.Here are the 3 big challenges we feel must be overcome in order to reimagine the future of work1. Success begets success, which means someone who is just starting out struggles to get ahead.The rich get richer is a cliche because, well, its true.In modern day society, previous success has a disproportionate impact on future success, meaning that if you have proven yourself once its even easier to earn a second at bat (and so on, and so forth). For anyone whohasntyet experienced some level of success, this is a huge hurdle to ov ercome.There are usually two big hurdles that keep people from being able to level up professionally.The first is getting your foot in the door in the first place. Young people often struggle to get the jobs they truly want because fruchtwein companies dont want to inherit the risk of training someone new. Instead, they require 2+ years of experience, even for most entry-level positions. But how is a recent college graduate or someone who just finished a Masters program supposed to have two years of experience?The second is, most people experience traction in their careers before they even know whether theyre doing something they enjoy in the first place. They graduate. They take a job. They get a promotion or two. And then by the time they realize how the game works, theyre too far gone. They would need to start completely over if they wanted to do something different, and the risks that come with that cause most people to accept their path in life and continue forward.So, how do y ou solve both of these issues?Networking.Many of the most valuable skills in life and in geschftlicher umgang are soft skills communication, relationship management, leadership, etc. Which means, if the system is not currently designed to help people maneuver and take control of their careers, then the only other way to advance and overcome some of these hurdles is to make meaningful connections with people with influence. We already know networking is the reason some people get terrific jobs right out of college and others dont. Were already aware of the power behind the cliche business phrase, Its all about who you know.This is problem number one were thinking about as we designOlmo.2. Companies are becoming more and more focused on short-term hires, which means employees need to be focused on acquiring transferable skills.Todays job market is sending a very clear message to todays younger generationsThe roles people are hiring for today, wont be the roles theyre hiring for tomorr ow.In 2016,Pew Research Center published a fascinating reporton the state of American jobs. And while its full of incredibly impactful takeaways, one of the most obvious is our workforces desire to continue their own personal growth. According to the report, More than half (54%) of adults in the labor force say it will be essential for them to get training and develop new skills throughout their work life in order to keep up with changes in the workplace. Thats a significant amount of people who are aware that what theyve been hired to dotodaymight not be all that necessary in the future.On top of that, 35% of workers, including about 27% of adults with at least a bachelors degree, say they dont have the education and training they need to get ahead at work. 45% of employed adults say they got extra training to improve their job skills in the past 12 months.So, what does this data tell us?A recentWall Street Journal article put it eloquently Instead of teaching new skills to their c urrent workers, employers often choose the disruption and high costs of layoffs or buyouts. Which means, regardless of whether youre an entry-level employee, a middle manager looking to make a career change, or a seasoned VP trying to become a leading executive, its not going to be the company that gives you the skills required to move up the ladder. Its going to be you- and in your own time.All of this to say, as more and more companies look to automate tasks, and shortcut internal training, its going to be the human social skills that become the real business advantages. Skills like being able to seek out and learn from someone who already possesses the skill youre looking to acquire. Being able to display value through a meaningful conversation. Being able to pick up on subtle social cues, and understand peoples pain points without needing them to be pointed out in the first place.As the future of work solidifies itself as digital, its going to be the fundamental human skills tha t remain most relevant.3. In the increasingly distracted and isolated digital age, people who understand how to form meaningful connections will have the advantage.Consuming social media is far from social activity.The truth is, many people consume social media by themselves. They feel as though theyre logged in to a big party when in reality, theyre sitting on the couch at home by themselves. Its a deceiving experience and one that creates the illusion that were meeting people and connecting with (or following) each other.But talk to anyone who has built an incredibly powerful network, and chances are, they see social media as white noise.Because the most meaningful connections in life come through genuine conversation. They happen over dinner, or a night out trading stories. They happen through an introduction from a close friend or a close co-worker. They are nurtured over time, and they usually turn into some sort of friendship, and in the end, thats why theyre so valuable. Both parties have invested time and energy into building it.As the world continues in this direction of social media, its going to be the closed or vetted social networks that add the most value to peoples lives (which is actually the core reason why were launchingOlmoas an invite-only platform). But more than that, its going to be the individuals who invest in bringing these online connections, offline, that possess the greatest professional advantage.People want to help people they know and have formed some sort of bond with.

4 Career Success Tips for Millennials and All Professionals
4 Career Success Tips for Millennials and All Professionals4 Career Success Tips for Millennials and All Professionals16Creating a carefully crafted career can take time, effort, some luck, and a whole lot of strategy. After all, you want to do what you love and make money, but also ensure that each job brings you to the next level in your career, too. Here are four career success tips for millennials and all professionals alike.Build your own brand.At one time, it was important to have your name associated with a well-known company. Now, companies are eager to attract job candidates who are also as equally well-known. Whether its your numerous Twitter followers, or the fact that youve been quoted in various articles, hiring managers are looking for those who have built a name for themselves, too. So get in on the act by buying the URL for your name (or some variation, if the domain name is already taken), and create a website that potential bosses can look at that serves as your por tfolio of previous accomplishments, too.Dont underestimate the importance of an adult internship.Sure, you graduated from school in what seems like eons ago, but that doesnt mean that youre too old or too cool to intern. Especially if youre thinking about switching gears in your career, an adult internship (paid or otherwise) can get your foot in the door into the industry that youd like to be in. Heres the important part, though. You have to be humble. Once youve accepted the internship position, you need to treat it like a job thats paying you six figures- or more. That means you have to show up on time each and every day, work hard, and never, ever treat it like an internship. Your hard work and dedication can pay off in terms of a killer recommendation, excellent contacts, and a possible job offer.Never stop learning.Its easy to say sayonara to your interview suit once you get offered a job. But its not always a good idea to get too comfy in any one position. Since job security is never really a guarantee, you should always be on the lookout for the next best job. One way to achieve this is by going on informational interviews. Not only will it keep your interviewing skills super sharp, but it will also help you stay connected and help increase your knowledge as to what hiring managers are looking for in their job applicants.Keep your connections.Its expected that 90 percent of millennials will stay at their current jobs for less than three years. That means that, on average, a millennial may have upwards of 15 to 20 jobs over the course of his or her career. If you calculate it, thats a lot of coworkers youll get to know and bosses whom youll work for. As you progress in your career, its smart to stay connected to as many of those people as you can. You never know when that former colleague from three jobs ago will be just the person to connect you to that job you really wantHaving a career that you love is an investment of time, energy, and passion. Youl l ensure your own success- and have a career to be proud of- by staying ahead of the competition and improving yourself along the way.Readers, what career success tips do you have to keep your career fresh?
