Top 10 Myths of Job Search and Career Management
Many people believe in a kind of “career mythology.” Their assumptions and
expectations are distorted, which gets them into trouble in their careers!
Here are the top 10 “myths”:
 The most qualified candidate gets the job offer.
 As long as I have a job, I don’t have to work on my career.
 My professional education stopped when I graduated from school.
 Employers always offer the most generous compensation they can
afford.
 If I just do a good job, my position will be secure.
 My resume is the only document I need to search for a job and
advance my career.
 Recruiters will find me a new position, so I don’t have to search for
jobs myself.
 Employers are responsible for managing my career path.
 Networking is only for salespeople and jobseekers – I don’t need to
network because I have a job.
 Most good opportunities are listed on job web sites, so they’re easy to
identify.
