In the present climate, the situation is extremely difficult when it comes to work. Those who have jobs, often feel fortunate to possess them, and are often desperate to hold on, as they know that the number of those unemployed usually rise by the week. The current recession has taken a hold, and many firms have either downsized or completely collapsed. If your among the many unfortunate ones who's lost there job during these times, I am hoping this post can help you in staying positive, and getting you back on your feet again. Firstly, I wish for you to realise that losing your job may come as a drastic shock to the system, but it isn't the end of the world, it really isn't. And to get back in the working world again, you'll need to stay positive, be dedicated, and to be focused. You'll need focus, as getting yourself another job should be your prime priority. Forget anything else, particularly when your funds aren't in the greatest of shape, and you'll be struggling to pay the bills eventually. You ought to be dedicated, as trying to find a job, is a job by itself, and this is how I'd like you to structure your job hunt. If you are unfortunate enough to be dismissed from a job immediately, you must hit the ground running, and by that I mean the day after you get sacked, I'd like you to wake first thing in the morning, before 9am, and get job hunting. This depends a good deal on your profession, but generally it might mean, printing up a large quantity of CV's, applying online via a job agency website, walking the streets handing out CV's etc. You understand what position you're in search of, and you ought to know what steps it needs to take to get a job interview. I really want you to work solidly on this day after day until you get a job. Starting at 9am everyday, working thoroughly until 12pm, lunch time. Having 1 hour to eat and relax. Then getting back on the grind again until 5pm, resting thereafter until the following day. Lastly, although not in the least, you must stay positive. You must stay positive, as unless you're extremely lucky, you'll receive many knock backs on your way to getting another job. This could be immediately, as in being told instantly you're not needed, or this might come later on down the road, perhaps in an interview. In any case, you'll need to stay positive so that you can stay on the needed path, and also so your future employer sees you in a positive light. Nobody wants a miserable person working for them, so be positive in every interaction during your job hunt. I hope that these steps assist you in your journey, as I understand how hard it can also be. Best wishes for your future.
