In this episode, Neha shared many recruiting tips and suggestions to help you find your next great job. Some points we discussed include:
· First impressions matter in your resume, LinkedIn home page, interviews, and as you network.
· Mistakes people make as they search for jobs include dressing inappropriately, being late (or much too early), and not being their true self.
· Some hot markets right now include AI, sales, medical tech, and clean tech.
· Best advice to someone who has been laid off: things happen for you, not to you; don’t take the layoff personally; figure out what your next job is going to look like; and journal during your transition to help you know where you have been and where you are going.
· Key skills looked for in a candidate: communication skills, ownership/accountability of issues, meeting deadlines, and culture fit.
· Three things to keep in mind during your job search: have an abundance mindset, be prepared, and have fun in the process.
What a great discussion we had. We talked on so many other topics than I listed here. I know you will get as much out of this discussion as I did. Enjoy!
