Waiting By The Phone...

Question

Any tips for how to keep oneself busy while you're keeping your fingers crossed for that job to call?

Lady Pele · Answer

When I was looking for a new position after being downsized, I spent from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM working on the job search.  That included researching companies; tailoring my resume for each position; cover letters; maintaining a spreadsheet of all applications and communications and touching base with my network to stay in mind if a new opportunity came up.

In the afternoon, if there wasn't more job search work to complete, I took the opportunity to run errands that otherwise had to be done in the evenings or weekends while working or pampered myself by reading or doing my nails, etc.

Partaking in meetups, attending networking events, listening to podcasts, reading articles across all social media platforms, re-decorating your home or even your work area
