Job Seeker Tip:

Knowing your goals

The beginning of a great new job starts with knowing where you're headed. To write a great resume, to have success in networking, to ace an interview, you need to know your strengths, what you enjoy, and what your personal goals are!

Before you take action, spend some time getting clear on what you want. If you're not sure, peruse some job postings online and get a feel for the options available. The more clear you are on what you want, the easier it is to talk about, and the faster you'll land where you want to be.

Speaking of Speaking Up ...

We all know that interviews can be nerve-wracking, especially when you want to make a good impression, but feel anxious. If you’re looking for ways to overcome this challenge and make your voice heard, you’re not alone.

10 Tips to Overcome Interview Stress - (also works for Speaking Up During Meetings):

1—Prepare in Advance:
Plan your points ahead of time and practice delivering them. This will not only boost your confidence, but also ensure that your contributions are impactful and relevant.

2—Start Small:
Begin by making small comments or asking questions. Gradually, you’ll build your confidence to contribute more substantial points.

3—Use Positive Self-Talk:
Encourage yourself with positive affirmations. Remind yourself that your insights and ideas are valuable and worth sharing.

4—Employ Active Listening:
Pay close attention to what others are saying. This will help you feel more engaged and make it easier to find opportunities to interject with your thoughts.

5—Seek Feedback:
After meetings, ask trusted colleagues or mentors for feedback on how you can improve. Constructive criticism can be invaluable in helping you develop your skills.

6—Practice Public Speaking:

Consider joining a public speaking group or taking a course. These settings provide a supportive environment to practice and refine your speaking skills, which can translate into greater confidence during meetings.

7—Visualize Success:

Spend a few minutes before the meeting visualizing yourself speaking confidently and being well-received. Visualization can be a powerful tool to reduce anxiety and build a positive mindset.

8—Understand the Meeting Dynamics:

Familiarize yourself with the roles and personalities of the participants. Understanding the group dynamics can help you anticipate reactions and tailor your contributions accordingly.

9—Manage Anxiety:

Learn and practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing or mindfulness to help manage anxiety. These techniques can be particularly effective just before or during the meeting.

10—Build Relationships:

Forge strong relationships with your colleagues outside of meetings. A solid rapport can create a more supportive atmosphere, making you more comfortable speaking up.

By following these tips, you’ll soon find that speaking up in meetings becomes second nature. We’re excited to see how you’ll grow and succeed.

Ready to Take the Next Step in Your Career? Feeling more confident about speaking up in meetings is just one part of your professional growth. If you’re ready to take the next step in your career, we would love to see what you can bring to the table. Submit your resume today and let’s unlock new opportunities together.

See you next time!
