3 Strange Questions To Help You Find Your Ideal Job

2018-09-17T08:02:53+00:00

There’s the typical questions you ask yourself when choosing a new career or deciding on a new job. Things like what you like doing, where you want to work, where you can see yourself in ten, twenty, fifty years time. Such questions are incredibly useful, and by asking them you can gather up a lot of valuable information. But by design, they only get at what you’re thinking on the surface, and as a result, only bring back superficial answers. When trying to find your ideal job, you need to tap into your real intrinsic, wants, motivations, and desires.

2018-08-29T07:26:46+00:00

On average, it takes about six-seconds for recruiters and hiring managers to decide if a CV is a yes or no. Yet, most of candidates’ time and effort when applying for a job is spent on tiny details and information deep into the page — things that recruiters wouldn’t even care about if they even saw them. If you want to even have a chance in getting hired, then, at least eighty percent of your time and effort should be instead spent on how you’re going to grab their attention and make a great first impression. That means not sending over a three page solid block or writing in an unreadable font, but rather valuing employers time and energy and
