Review your current situation and options
Before starting your job search be clear about the reasons for leaving your existing employer. It’s always worth having an open and honest discussion with your manager first to see if improvements, negotiations and changes can be made.
Assess your skills and development areas
Understanding your skillset and how to develop new expertise is essential for personal and professional growth. Conduct a skills audit and take advantage of training available to help you do this.
Equip yourself with a killer CV
Having an up to date, accurate and engaging CV will not only help you stand out when applying for a new job, but it will also serve as a good reference for interviews and discussions with key contacts.
Refine your job search
Putting effort and time into conducting a good job search across multiple channels will pay off. Make the most of free job boards, alerts and your own network to support you in finding the right position.
