1 Know your value

Before you start applying for jobs, you need to assess your value in the market and in your field. This means identifying your strengths, skills, achievements, and potential contributions to an employer. You also need to research the salary range and benefits for your desired role and location, and benchmark yourself against your peers and competitors. Knowing your value can help you target the right opportunities, showcase your fit and impact, and negotiate effectively.

2 Update your brand

Your personal brand is how you present yourself to potential employers and how you differentiate yourself from other candidates. It includes your resume, cover letter, online profile, portfolio, and social media presence. You need to update your brand to reflect your current goals, skills, and accomplishments, and to highlight your relevance and value for your target roles and industries. You also need to tailor your brand to each specific job application, using keywords, achievements, and examples that match the employer's needs and expectations.

3 Expand your network

Networking is a key component of any job search, as it can help you access hidden opportunities, get referrals, learn from others, and build relationships. You need to expand your network by reaching out to people who work in your target roles, companies, or sectors, and asking for informational interviews, advice, or feedback. You also need to nurture your existing network by staying in touch, sharing updates, and offering support. Networking can help you gain insights, visibility, and credibility in your field, and increase your chances of getting hired.

4 Prepare for interviews

Interviews are your opportunity to showcase your skills, personality, and fit for the role and the organization. You need to prepare for interviews by researching the employer, the role, and the industry, and anticipating the questions and scenarios you might face. You also need to practice your answers, stories, and examples, and demonstrate your enthusiasm, confidence, and professionalism. You need to prepare for different types of interviews, such as phone, video, panel, or behavioral, and follow up with thank-you notes and feedback requests.

It's important to especially research on good questions to ask the panelists during the interview and also knowing how to answer situational/behavioural questions.

5 Negotiate your offer

When you receive a job offer, you need to negotiate your terms and conditions to ensure that they meet your needs and expectations. You need to negotiate not only your salary, but also your benefits, incentives, flexibility, and growth opportunities. You need to approach the negotiation as a collaborative process, where you communicate your value, interests, and goals, and seek a win-win solution. You also need to be prepared to handle objections, counteroffers, and alternatives, and to confirm the final agreement in writing.

Another good thing is to carefully vet your referees. Ensure those you select can give a good picture of who you are in terms of your experience and skills. Also ensure to keep them up to date on your various career moves, the interviews you have been called for and last but not least, get their consent before you share their information to prospective employers.
