The Top 10 Approaches to Your Career Goal Attainment

Most of us spend the majority of our working hours engaged in work or work related activities. Yet over 80% of the population is dissatisfied with their current job situation. These top 10 tips will assist you in achieving your career goals.

1. Whether you're unemployed, underemployed, considering a career change, re-entering the job market, or recently graduated, the first step toward reaching your career potential is to objectively analyze and evaluate your skills and capabilities. Have a coach or career counselor objectively assess your natural talents, skills and professional strengths.

2. Set realistic short and long range goals. Create a plan that will give you a competitive edge. Be specific. Have it reviewed objectively.


3. Design a high profile resume. You must have a resume that will sell you. Don't send out a resume until it is a strong sales tool that represents you.


4. Gain information on industry trends and specific companies. Use a business database, CD-ROM or on-line systems.


5. Develop sophisticated networking capabilities.


6. Create winning interview skills. While you may be an expert in your profession, you must be able to sell yourself during an interview.


7. Negotiate the salary that you require. Have a strategy for negotiating top dollar. A coach or career counselor can give you tools for getting the money you want.


8. Use marketing techniques for a competitive edge. You need to implement an effective marketing strategy to increase your visibility and give you an edge. Create a plan targeted to meet your needs.


9. Find long term support, even after your short term career goals are met.
In order to keep growing, stay abreast of market trends and issues related to your career growth and development. Use an objective partner to support you.


10. Use an approach that meets your needs. Don't follow guidelines in a book or from a friend if they are not comfortable for you and not representative of who you are. Be authentic in designing a career search and marketing plan that really reflects who you are.
