Daily Quote

Don’t we say in business to focus on one single thing, and then do it really, really well?

I mean it makes sense. Companies are looking for a specific person (profile) they have in mind as an ideal employee.

They set their sites on sourcing and interviewing candidates that align with this profile.

The last thing they want is a jack- or jill-of-all-trades type of candidate. I mean in some cases, yes. Maybe a smaller shop that needs an operations manager who can stretch themselves between multiple departments…

But ideally, they want a specific skill set working on this specific job.

Rather than over-stretch yourself, focus on one thing and do it well. Once you’ve mastered that, move on to another skill set.

I always say to internalize, realize, and visualize.

Try to identify your relevance in terms of value to a prospective employer, internalize what your passions are and some transferable skills and accomplishments to relay to hiring managers, a solid resume and some email communication templates (or cover letter), and a lot of patience and willpower.

A good rule of thumb for the job hunter seeking a new role in a new industry is to identify your transferable skills and portray those first on your LinkedIn profile and resume.

Reverse-engineer your career path from your ideal job description and see what you have and what needs up-skilling.
