TIPS FOR JOB CHANGE

TIPS  FOR JOB CHANGE


Every person working in any organization wants to secure a better job than his existing job. And; you have received a job offer for your dream job.  Sometimes changing a job also may become necessary due to circumstances. Don’t let your dream turn into a nightmare for your current employer.

Given below are some highly useful steps which must be kept in mind before joining the new job.

§  RESUME UPDATE:
Review & revive your resume at regular interval; preferably once every six months. This will enable you to start responding to opportunities as they arise. It will also enable the prospective employer to gauge your suitability for the job more accurately.

§  LOOK IN & OUT:
      Consider an internal job change if your current position is not satisfactory. Leaving your current employer may not be the best decision, especially during high unemployment phase. It pays to be flexible & look for job both within the organization as well as outside. Think about changing your responsibilities or asking for a transfer to a new department. It may be far easier than getting a new job.

§  CONSIDER QUALITY:
      When evaluating new opportunities, it is not always the remuneration, which is important. You should look for challenges too. New position should allow opportunities for additional challenges, as well as possibilities to serve customer, corporate & communities better. This will be beneficial in long run for career advancement. This point is very useful especially for fresh graduates.

§  FIND A SHOULDER:
        Advice from right mentor can help one to locate mange & evaluate opportunities. Discuss your job related issues with your mentor before deciding to move out.

§  MAKE IT SMOOTH:
       If you find a new position, make the transition trouble free for your current employer. Clean up the mess if any. Offer to train your replacement. Be available for assistance after your departure. Thank your current employer for the experience. Leave on a positive note. This will enhance your future career options. Leaving abruptly without any notice will deprive one of good references in case your current employer decides to contact your previous employer. Please remember that for any employee best references are always from previous employer.
