Unemployed? Read on...


If you are unemployed or layed off, read on… Now’s an ideal time to take personal inventory on your strengths and passions while you are looking for another job. Once you identify your top 3 strengths and decide what motivates you, look for a volunteer opportunity with an organization to fulfill what you have to offer. Here’s 3 ways you will benefit
1. You will stay actively working (perhaps you don’t get paid) however, you will have a purpose each time you get out and associate with others
towards a common goal.
2. When you do get “that interview” for the job you want, they will be impressed that you are not sitting on the coach and actually doing something with your life
3. You will have fun knowing that you are helping others
Getting a job is competitive, do you think that you can have the competitive advantage over someone else if you are staying active through volunteering versus the other person who is sitting on the coach? Start today!
