Divya Parekh on: One Road to the Job of Choice
Hello Friends,
The parents were sitting by the pool watching the children engaged in horseplay. The kids were focused on having fun. We were enjoying the balmy night in our own way. Leandra approached us, her face glowing with joy. Before we could pull a chair out for her, she asked us if we had heard the news. We shook our heads. She told us that she had accepted the job offer from the company of her choice. We hugged Leandra as we congratulated her.
Leandra’s story:
Leandra was dissatisfied with her present job in Company X since there were no opportunities for growth. She thought about her situation and decided to do something about it. She began planning her exit strategy. Her first step was to recognize her strengths and interests. After researching several companies, she identified two companies (Company Y and Company Z) that she wanted to work for. Leandra deepened her research to further explore companies’ reputation, financial status and job opportunities.
Although Company Y was financially strong, there were hints about reducing the operational costs. On the other hand, Company Z was not only financially strong but also in growth phase. Company Z was ranked to be one of the best companies to work for, unlike Company Y. Leandra focused her attention on Company Z. She monitored the jobs offered by Z. Leandra discovered that she lacked certain skills for desired jobs. She started taking training courses that would endow her with essential skills. While taking the courses, she connected with professionals as well as Z’s trainers.
The Z trainer informed Leandra about a position that would match her skills. When Leandra applied for a position in Z, her resume had an edge over other candidates because she was already familiar with the required software. Leandra got the job of her choice!
Tomorrow’s goal drives us to take the action today.
Create a great week!
Your partner in success and happiness,
Divya
