Teachers in Transition - Episode 39 - Why Not to Slack Off Your Job Search During the Holidays

Send us Fan MailI can't tell you how many times I have heard people say, "I am going to knock off the job search over the holidays and start fresh after the New Year," They mistakenly think that everyone else is taking a break for the holidays. I say "mistakenly" because they are wrong! Many companies only take the actual holidays off...and they still have openings to fill...sometimes openings that must be filled before the end of the calendar year.You've heard the saying, "You snooze, you lose." And that is possible when you are job hunting and decide to slack off over the holidays. Use this time to check back with HR directors to see about that job you interviewed for a few weeks ago. If you learned that they filled it already, at least you now know. But if they are still searching for someone, your showing extra initiative and interest might spark their interest in YOU!Listen to why I believe that you should NOT slack off your job search during the holidays.For the full transcript, click here:  http://bit.ly/2r4JxSISupport the show
