And as individuals, reasons for this may vary from person to person.
If you’ll be embarking on a job search for the first time, or looking at changing your current job in the New Year, here are some tips to follow:
• Search for job opportunities in your own time.
• Use your own resources to look for a new job.
• Make sure that your Curriculum Vitae has all the necessary information in it.
• Choose your references carefully, as this may be crucial in you getting or losing the job.
• Do your research thoroughly on the company you are applying to – and the job you are apply for.
• When called for an interview, don’t be over or under dressed.
• Be on time for the interview.
• Be confident and sell yourself well.
• Don’t jump ship, until you have an offer in writing.
• Ensure that you leave your current employer on a good note, as you never know what will happen where you are going.
