You've been working in this job for what now feels like eternity, you get up in the morning, drag yourself off to work and gulp as you walk through the doors to your office.
What on earth happened for it to be this bad? Could you have done anything to make a better outcome? You feel like you've done everything you could, but nothing worked.
You are now feeling like there's a time bomb that is constantly ticking in the background. You know you have to get out of this place. Things will probably get worse before they get better, so it's 'exit stage left'.
But you're holding your horses, you're not just jumping onto the internet job sites and applying for the very first job that you think you could apply for....you hesitate on that because you think it's time for a change.
You could do better at something else. It's true that you are good at this job, but it doesn't make your heart sing, you don't jump up out of bed every morning and look forward to your day.
There is one thing that may be stopping your career from progressing......your vision of the future is blurred and you just don't know which direction you should be heading in.
After years of providing ca
reer advice and career management services, I know this is not the best time for you to be making decisions on your own. I've career coached and counselled hundreds of professional workers (many of them in 6 figure incomes) who were in such a state .....they were on the brink of just quitting their job so they could concentrate on the next chapter in their lives. Now that's a big call, as they had all sorts of expenses and financial commitments. The fact is that you can't be expected to make a big career move when you feel so much frustration. If you are not your happy self at this point, you need to break up this routine of misery ----- immediately.
You need to shake off the negativity that this job is inflicting on you. It's called a 'Pattern Interrupt' - you are breaking up the routine you are in. You'll need a few hours to really think about what you've enjoyed in your past jobs and want you want in the future.
I have included a little surprise for you in The Career Success program that will save you having to quit your job or go for a huge holiday, which is what I did because nobody could give me the answers.....
Let me tell you what I did
After a few years of doing jobs that I tired of very very easily (like within a year I am talking - that's how I became so good at resume writing and job interviews in the first place), I finally decided that there must be more to life than working in a job that I gave me no challenge or enjoyment. I knew that I had no idea of what to do, so I decided to get away for a while .... I pack
ed up my backpack and did what most young Australian's do, I went around Australia, and then around the world.
They say 'the World is Your Oyster' - but with so many choices, I didn't have a clue. So taking the opportunity (I was in my early 20's, single and had saved every cent of my earnings), I decided that I would open up the Atlas and pick 7 countries that I would go and see. On my way through Mexico, I had a brain wave and started hatching a plan for my career. I couldn't wait to get back to Australia to make a start.....
Now, this method might not work for you, especially if you have a mortgage, children and a partner worth holding onto, so there are a couple of other methods that you could use, in the comfort of your own city (or even your own home).
I have bottled up all the very best strategies into this program, but if you want me to personally help you, I will also need you to do an online assessment, so I can get to know you a little better.....
A. Career Success Program + Online Assessment Centre Training
This package takes you through the decision making process and then guides you through the job search for a successful outcome within 60 days.
You won't need to leave home, we will get to know each other over the phone. You'll do an online assessment, similar to the type the large organisations and government departments will ask you to conduct when you get to the 2nd or 3rd interview.
This is a focused method of finding your key strengths and your preferences for what type of job would really suit you. There is not much 'fluffing around', we get straight to the point of finding career alternatives for you.
The assessment is about 30 minutes long and it will create a report to outline your key personality traits, and how you ideally like things to be done at work. It will describe your ideal work environment and give you some questions to think about so you can develop your career to the next level.
Essentially, the report gives you a summary of what 2 or 3 coaching sessions will give you. So you save hours and hours of time and money.
As a bonus it also describes your key strengths in really professional phrases, so you can use these when you walk into the interview, or throughout your resume or cover letters.
You can trust that I've done my research to make sure this assessment is authentic and reliable. I am the Queen of Research, and have compared it to the Myers Briggs and other commonly used assessment tools. This one is brilliant, at about a third of the price.
It's called the DiSC Personality Profiling System and its Scientifically Validated, it has been tried and tested for over 38 years and is recongised by large organisations and government departments.
In Summary, the report can help you:
Plan your career,
Create a more dynamic resume,
Tailor your Cover letter and Response to Key Selection Criteria
Identify your key strengths to highlight in Your upcoming Job Interviews
This Package gives you support at every step, after the assessment we'll speak over the phone; work out what your options are; we'll do some research about where the good jobs are, and then we'll launch a dynamic job search campaign that will have you in job interviews within the next 60 days.
