Practical Career Advice: Five Questions to Reflect On

Five things worth keeping up to date – even when you’re not job hunting.

You dont need to be looking for a new role to keep your career in good shape. A little maintenance now can make life much easier when the right opportunity eventually comes along.

πŸ’œ 1. Your CV
Add new responsibilities, projects and achievements as they happen rather than trying to remember everything two years later.

πŸ’œ 2. Your LinkedIn profile
Make sure your current position, skills and experience reflect what youre actually doing today.

πŸ’œ 3. Your achievements
Keep a note of successful projects, positive feedback, targets achieved and problems youve solved.

πŸ’œ 4. Your market knowledge
Have a rough idea of salaries, demand and the types of opportunities available for someone with your experience.

πŸ’œ 5. Your network
Dont wait until you need something to reconnect with former colleagues, contacts or recruiters.

Ten minutes here and there can make a huge difference when you eventually decide its time for something new.

Save this one for your next career admin day and we are always happy to have a confidential conversation when it’s time for that next step.
