If you are spending most of your time at home in front of your computer, it's time to shake up your routine. Applying online is by far the easiest way to apply for jobs - but it's NOT the most effective. When you’re in a job search for more than six months -your daily routine is set on automatic pilot. This week, spend 75% of your time networking, setting up informational interviews and marketing yourself directly to hiring authorities. Rather than sending emails, pick up the phone and have conversations. Leave a voicemail that shows your target how it will benefit them to call you back. Get out of your house and force yourself to interact with people who are working. You NEVER know who can open a door that results in your next job opportunity.
