Conquering the Job Hunt

Hunting for a job can be stressful. How can you best conquer the search?
This sample report is one tool InAccord consultants use to maximize your job-searching efforts. Let's take a look...

"JOHN SMITH"

Your Job Search
The following personal statements are generated by your answers to 
The Birkman® Method questionnaire:

Approaching your job search
Directly ask those you know for networking contacts
Use your organizing approach and follow a structured plan as you pursue your job search
Ideally, find a job that allows you to be competitive and to be paid on results
If possible, actively start your job search as soon as you can
You like to push yourself on occasions, and this is a time that such an approach is appropriate
You'll feel you're achieving most if you pursue several different lines of inquiry at the same time 

When the job search becomes stressful
Under pressure, you can be a little too tense
You're tempted to withdraw or hide when things get tough
You have a tendency to focus too much on what the job pays and not enough on things like work conditions
You may be inclined to blame yourself for your job loss or for your inability to find another
You can find it hard to sit still and concentrate on what you committed to do, because it's easier to keep trying something new

Finding and developing a support group and/or process
Seek the support of friends who will be direct and forthright with you
One or two close supporters are more beneficial to you than a group of more casual friends
Seek the support of people who expect much of you and who understand your self-critical nature
Stay away from distractions
