Looking for a new job, especially if you don’t currently have one can be very tough mentally. All of a sudden you have plenty of free time to stare at job board after job board. Soon it seems like one day just emerges into the next. You are not alone as there are thousands if not millions of others around the country doing the same thing. If you believe there has to be a better way, you have come to the right place. Let’s stop the traveling and work on utilizing an instrument that will allow you to plan the ultimate week.

This instrument can in fact be used for almost anything but it is an ideal fit for those searching for jobs. As you have probably already discovered, it is very easy to slip into a monotonous, boring, eyes glazed over job search. This can kill your self confidence. The longer you are out of the labor force, the harder it is to maintain the drive you require. Let’s begin by making a list and in the far left hand column will put a heading of, “Things that would make up my ultimate week.” The list can be something like this:

1- Apply and get a reply from two really good employers.
2- Complete an online education class that will assist my job search.
3- Interview in person at least one time this week.
4- Help pass on a good friend who is also seeking to someone I know that might be a good contact.

Your list will be different but this gives you an understanding of the positive outcomes that need to be on this list. Be as specific as you can. Instead of “apply for jobs.” Use a precise term you will be addressing. Now we will get it a step further and in fact schedule the days you will be doing these things. Beside each one you will have to list the limit date by which it is to be done. You will notice a difference when you wake up let’s say on a Tuesday, struggle to your computer and find out that today you will be, “completing an online course that will assist with your job search”. Take some time to make this list exactly what you want it to be as you will be living by it for awhile. Of course not everything can be completed a day for instance the in person job interview. Those can be “scheduled” weekly though.

Round out your list by adding columns for any challenges you might face to achieve these and then a strategy for each one and how you can overcome it. Having this listed and in writing is the key. This tool can make a week with no direction into an optimistic jobs in Ohio search.
