Job searching can be a frustrating and disheartening experience. You see a job opening that looks perfect for your skillset, submit your resume and cover letter and eagerly await a response. But all too often, the response is a generic rejection email, leaving you feeling defeated and wondering what went wrong. So, let’s take a closer look at how you can frame yourself as a valuable asset to land a job you love quickly!
According to a study by the Society for Human Resource Management, the average job search can take up to 23 weeks. And, with the rise of automated systems for screening resumes, it’s becoming even more challenging for job seekers to stand out and get in front of the right people.
As we already know, the job market is constantly evolving and becoming increasingly competitive… It’s critical to acknowledge that it’s not just about having the right skills and qualifications but also about adapting and continuously learning. Moreover, standing out as a candidate is about being prepared to speak about your accomplishments and how they align with the company’s needs. This is what showcasing your value truly is.
Remember, it’s not just about having the qualifications (because your competition does, too). Showcasing your value as an asset to the company is a must.
But how do you do that?
How do you project your value and land the job you love? The answer is to focus on how you frame yourself as a person who is empowered, confident, and valuable.
