Do You Dare Switch Jobs In The Corona Virus Economy?
Steps To Take Before A Job Change

Change Of Mindset

People have had a change of mindset when it comes to work in the past year due to the global scale of the pandemic. People have had second thoughts on their careers when having to realize their jobs may not be as fulfilling as they once thought. The pandemic has let us take a step back and made us look at things from a new perspective.

Networking

Networking with friends of friends, colleagues, former coworkers and maybe even your fellow alumni can lead you to connect with people in your field of interest or industry.

Hone Your Skills

The pandemic can give us the opportunity to sharpen our skills from online learning opportunities. Whether it’s LinkedIn Learning or SkillShare, learning new skills or sharpening old ones can help you decide new career paths or a foot into other industries

Be On The Lookout

Interviews are still happening and you as a jobseeker should still be on the lookout for new employment opportunities. Job seeking and interviewing from the comfort of your own home is a much more relaxed approach than the traditional commute to an office take.
