Looking for a new role in 2025
Get into the right mindset to look for your next position...
If you are not careful looking for a new role can sap your energy and your time. Be really focused on what you are looking for. Warren Buffet only invests his money in a small amount of companies so that he can be really focused and not distracted by other investments. How to be more "Buffet"??
Start by listing all the roles and companies you would not work for:-
- Identify any obstacles that you would draw a red line on
- Too long a commute
- Fully remote or equally office attendance
- Do not believe in what the company stands for
- Think that their product or service is poor
- Have read that they do not treat employees well
Then dream big and identify the companies you would love to work for:-
- You love their product or service
- You love their culture
- You love the benefits package
- You have always dreamed of working there
Cut out the logos of the companies you would like to work at and put them on a frame on your desk. This is a great motivational tool "What you focus on becomes reality".
From both exercises you will start to build a picture of what your next move might look like.
Set time aside each week so that you are consistently touching the project but not touching it too much that it becomes tedious. Celebrate the small wins of getting acknowledgments and go for volume as you may have to "Kiss several frogs ".
