- Focus on the things you want, not the things you are not happy with
- Growing your career more strategic and breaking the traditional roadmap
- Following your excitement in your career
- Graduating from College – Now what?
- Get away from the concept of having a "purpose," because you do not have to figure out whom you are going to be when you turn 50 – Today
- It is OK to be more general – do not focus on one job title
- Figure out what you are good at and what your strengths are
- Getting creative, especially during the Covid crisis
- Finding positions that will allow you to utilize the skills that you enjoy
- Breaking your strengths out to define your path
- Asking peers, professors, and the previous boss' what are your strengths
- Starting with your strength and doing an inventory will guide you on how to get started
- Doing your research to make sure companies can offer you what your strengths are
- Pair your strengths based on the situation and the role
- Sometimes your strengths fit the organization but not the role
- Steps to doing an inventory
- Working around your weaknesses – However, try to avoid roles where the role focus is on a weakness that you have
- Try to focus on your strengths – not your weaknesses – you get more ROI if you put your focus on strengths
- Knowing what you are not good at could help mitigate risk
- Searching for a role – create 2 or 3 nonnegotiables and beyond that be flexible
- Do not just apply unless you plan on keeping track of everything you used for
- Does the role sound exciting? Limit your applications to roles that get you excited
- Avoid the path of least resistance
- During Covid – if you have to take a job that doesn't pay what you want, use this time to figure out what your next path will be after Covid
