2021 feels like a fresh start for many of us, at least we are hoping. This year you may be looking to make new career moves after a long 2020 stuck at home. Express Employment Professionals, a Reno job center, is here to help by providing a few tips below that can help you advance your career this year.
Tip 1: Skills, skills, and skills
As we begin 2021 still stuck at home, now is the time to learn more skills you need for the job you want. New skills will help you fill gaps in your resume that would help you communicate to employers that you are right for the role you are seeking. If you want to develop new skills, start by looking at the skills needed for the positions for which you want to apply. Once you have a list of needed skills, look for certificates, classes, or other options to gain those skills.
Tips 2: Take control of your money
I am sure you have heard the old saying before, “money is power.” This saying especially holds when it comes to your career goals. Having a balanced budget in place can give you the freedom to make career choices not otherwise possible.
Tip 3: Freshen up your resume
Many people will wait to update their resume right before applying for a job, which will often leave resumes looking messy and unpolished. Taking the time now to freshen up your resume will help you avoid the messy, unpolished look of a thrown-together resume.
Tip 4: Knowing your worth
Take some time to get to know your worth, as this will help you confidently ask for a higher salary. To help you understand your worth, start by researching. You can use websites such as Glassdoor to help you investigate the average salary for your industry, job function, and location.
Finally, consider investing in a career coach. A career coach can help you land job opportunities by helping you learn communication, achieve goals, form career ideas, and so much more. A career coach can truly help you achieve your goals and make 2021 the best year ever!
