Resume/Job Hunt

Hi, everyone!

This is my first post. I'm struggling with my job hunt after being laid off (again).

I wanted to ask for some feedback on my resume? I also don't have many figures to provide, as I only spend such a short time at my jobs before I'm cut short.

Open to any and all feedback.

Hi @saraghattas, I find that most people overindex on their job search materials when its just a small component of the job search itself. Here are my best pieces of guidance on how to succeed in job search:- Get support to edit and create strong materials, and then ensure you know how/where else to spend time wisely in job search- Determine what support system you have in place to help you be effective throughout your job search -- Most people feel they have to go it alone and end up guessing where to spend their time versus leveraging a coach, mentor, peer or other tools and resources to be strategic- Determine your accountability plan to make sure you're staying on top of your goals & staying organized- Reflect on how things are going on a weekly basis to iterate & improve your approach and thus your outcomes-Be sure not to approach the job in a transactional, check-the-box sort of way -- see networking and interviews as a mirror into the job you would land and an opportunity for two-way assessment of fit- Consider how many roles/industries you're applying to-- this may be a sign that you'd want to take a step back and pursue career exploration to clarify your ideal fit direction; career clarity will help make your search more efficient, targeted, and effective- Don't ignore your self care to ensure your mindset is staying resilient during your searchPS, I’m Rachel, a Career Coach.
