find the perfect job

I would like to find a career/job that would make me happy. I would like to wake up and be happy about going to work. I would like to work with people who do not bring me down or screw up my mind or confirm my belief that the world is coming to an end. I want to feel like I am doing the right thing!

I took the 43 Things Personality Quiz and found out I’m aSelf-Knowing Lifelong Learning Tree Hugger

I am so tired of going from job to job never reaching my potential and never feeling like it is worth my time either. I hope this works…

I hope this works. ive been looking for the perfect job for ages.

I decided to go through the recruiting process at school this Fall, so I’m pretty close to finding this great job! It means a lot of work on my resume and a lot of company research. I’m nervous, but excited!

1. Find perfect job function CHECK!
2. Research different companies and establish contact! Network! Be remembered!
3. Research and prioritize aspects of companies (to help pick out the best fit):
Industry
Company Culture
Geographic location
Advancement opportunity
Salary/benefits
Company financial outlook
4. Re-work resume
5. Prepare for, practice for, and blow them away at recruiting interviews!
6. Negotiate!

etc. etc. etc… lots of things missing from this list, but there is a lot of research to do before anything else.

In a moment of clarity, I finally realized just what that perfect job might be (a critical first step)! Now all I have to do make myself into the perfect candidate and find that job!

and throw my resume out of it. Maybe I will find what I am looking for.

Cheers! M

Maybe there isn’t a “perfect” job. Maybe the perfect job is just being yourself and doing what makes you happy. Even if your actual employment is only okay, but makes you enough money to live how you want. Maybe the perfect job is just living. Maybe?
