Consider relocating.  A critical mistake that job hunters often make is limiting their search to one specific area. The job market may be oversaturated in your current city, but there may be openings in your area of expertise elsewhere. Remain open to different locations and company structures. Widening your job search horizons may help you find a job more quickly than if you restrict your search to one particular area or company structure.

Expect to be searching for the long haul. These days it’s taking longer for the average professional or managerial worker to get a new job. While it’s possible that you may find something right away, it’s best that you develop a long-term financial backup plan. What kind of side work could you do to ensure you still have money flowing in? How could you reduce your expenses? A great way to resolve some of these issues and to get advice on how to handle being out of a job is to join a job-hunting group to get support, ideas, and contacts. Get to know as many people in your line of work as possible. Building these relationships will be helpful to you even after you’ve found a new job.

Keep your spirits up. An alarming number of job hunters are becoming discouraged and dropping out of the job market. Don’t let yourself be one of them. Be aware that what you are going through is not easy, and that many of the things you are experiencing are being experienced by just about everybody else. Jobs were lost every month in the year 2008, and our country is seeing its highest unemployment rate in four years.  Don’t let the loss of one job fool you into thinking you won’t be great at a job somewhere else. Nothing is forever. Just hang in there, get a fresh start, and remember that you will find something eventually.

Develop new skills.   If you suspect your old skills are out-of-date, use your out-of-work time to develop new ones. If you’re being told you aren’t being hired because you don’t have the right experience, get the experience. Depending on your area of expertise, there are lots of great ways to hone and expand your skills. Take a class. Do volunteer work to gain expertise that you can later market. Or join an association related to your new skill area. If you need to get a job to help increase your cash flow while you are unemployed, try to find something that will enhance your résumé even if it doesn’t necessarily fit in with the kind of work you would like to do long term. For example, one Five O’Clock Clubber got a twelve-week assignment with a Sears consignee during the Christmas rush. The pay wasn’t great, but the job title was Regional Manager, which looked great on his résumé.

Become a skilled job hunter. Being good at your job does not necessarily mean that you will be good at getting jobs. Good job hunters know what they want, what the market wants, and how to present themselves. Having a well-written résumé and cover letter are key to being competitive when job hunting. A poorly crafted résumé or cover letter can prevent you from ever getting your foot in the door at most businesses, particularly in an economy that is flooded with people looking for jobs. If you don’t think that your résumé and cover letter are up to par, find someone to help you write them or visit any of the myriad websites set up to help people out with résumé and cover letter writing.
