Before you start applying, the most important thing for
you to do is to think about what you actually want out of
your new job, from what you’ll be doing day to day to the
overall company culture.
Figure out
what you really want
STEP 01

Research the
Profession
Before you decide whether this is the perfect profession for you,
it’s always a good idea to research what this career path entails.
The first step is examining the day-to-day duties of the job, work
environment, skills you need to succeed and what you can get
out from it in terms of salary potential.
STEP 02

I’m a big believer that people are generally happy to help others out, if they’re just told
how. So, as you’re job searching, cast a wide net and see who’s open to chatting.
Reach out to old and new connections alike and let them know what your goals are. It’ll
help them help you.
Reach out to your
connections
