Staying Motivated in the Job Search

Career Coaching Corner

with Dave Lakin, SSV Career & Transition Program Manager

The job market is competitive. The process of looking for jobs, applying for jobs and interviewing for jobs is exhausting. It's easy to become frustrated and unmotivated during the job search especially if you're unemployed or soon to be, or you've been job searching for an extended amount of time. Staying motivated can be tough even for the most confident person.

TOPICS:

  • Create a plan

  • Visualize where you want to be

  • Set realistic goals

  • Move on quickly

  • Take a break  …and much more

In this hour-long discussion we’ll first spend time on the topic discussion and then open the conversation to help troubleshoot your job search experience and network with other Veterans. Q&A may extend beyond the hour to ensure everyone is helped.
