New Year’s Resolutions




The key objective once you have found a job is to keep!  An article in the January 9, 2011, issue of The Dallas Morning News by Amy Winters of Creators Syndicate Bulletin Board quotes John Challenger tips for workers hoping to keep their jobs in 2011:

1.    Look for more responsibility. Take on challenging duties and keep a take-charge attitude.
2.     Become part of a company committee. Build new relationships by being more involved in the company.
3.    Find and/or become a mentor. Serving as a mentor or having one can help develop and achieve workplace goals.
4.    Look for opportunities to save money. Seek out options that will increase efficiency while reducing cost for your company.
5.    Focus on mastering a topic in your field. You want to be the “go-to” person for a certain subject at the office.

I am thinking that these suggestions could be answers to an interview’s question when he/she asks you how you would be an asset to the organization.

Please share your 2011 job seeking resolutions with readers of this blog.       


Thanks!  Glyn
