🔍 Making the Most of Your Job Search in a Tough Market 🔍

Looking for work in a competitive market can be tough, but it’s also a great time to reset, refocus and stay proactive. Here’s how to maximise your time:

🧠 Upskill – Take a short course or learn something new online (brush up on your Excel skills for example).
📄 Update Your CV – Ensure your CV is up to date, with relevant information and be sure to highlight key achievements.
🤝 Network – Reconnect with old colleagues, make new connections, attend online events and stay active on LinkedIn.
🎯 Be Open – Consider temporary or contract roles to gain experience and get a foot in the door.
💬 Ask for Feedback – Use rejections as a learning tool to improve your approach.

Stay positive — every step is progress! 🌟
