Daily Solutions: Want a better job?


A Job is Similar to a Relationship,
IF YOU SETTLE FOR LESS, YOU WILL GET LESS THAN WHAT YOU SETTLED FOR.

Solution:

1) Once You Get Hired in Any Company:
- Don't be afraid to keep an eye out for other positions, both internally and in other companies. 
- Get to know people in the office. Everyone from the receptionist to upper management could play a crucial role in your future in the company.

2) Want to Change Your Career?
- Thoroughly research what it is you actually want to do. You may require specific training or certification before you could actually apply for appropriate positions. 
- Don't be afraid to start networking with people in the field. There is nothing more valuable than hearing the insights from an insider.
- Incorporate your current skills (even if unrelated) to the new position. You have the potential to offer a company something that other candidates will not be able to. 

3) ASK:
- You will never get a promotion or a raise if you don't ask for it. If you are like most of us, it could be a little daunting asking for such things from your boss. Therefore, believe in what you are asking for. Think why you deserve the raise or promotion and use those reasons in your proposal.

4) Follow Change:
- In order to stay relevant, you need to welcome change. 
- Stay well informed regarding new innovations and research in your field and try to implement it in your work. If necessary, make appropriate recommendations to upper management. 


Remember, there is something valuable in the phrase 'Do What You Love, and Love What You Do' .
