10 Mistakes People Make With Unemployment And Looking For A Job by thinkdip(m): 5:12pm On Sep 02, 2013
1. Think they will never find another a job
again so they convey desperation rather than
confidence (it shows).
2. Minimize all the skills they have to offer a
new employer.
3. Allow feelings of hopelessness/despair (it's
only natural) to paralyze them from
rebounding.
4. Forget their network of family and friends,
etc, are the best source for referrals.
5. Don't hunt enough (looking for a job should
be a full time job in itself ~ put in the time).
6. Take a closed door, "no" answer or not being
chosen for a position too personally.
7. Don't take care of themselves (get enough
sleep, eat right, exercise, etc).
8. Give in to bitterness and anger (it's not
your loved ones fault that you lost your job).
9. Overlook sharpening skills or learning new
ones.
10. Forget there are many opportunities online.
