Check your bait.

Check your baitAre you frustrated with the Job Seeking process? Are you sending your CVs out, calling up companies, only to have the same response (if any response) again and again? Are you starting to believe that there simply are no jobs out there for you, and people don't care? Before you get caught in this trap, stop for a moment, and think about the way in which you are going about this process. If you are not getting the desired response from the market, don't sit back and blame it on the world around you. Change the way in which you go about doing things, and you will be surprised at the reaction that you will get. To use our fishing analogy, don't be like the fisherman who sits by the lake all day, complaining that the fish aren't biting while all around him his friends are pulling them in.  At the end of the day, he pulls in his line, only to discover there is no bait on the hook… The question he has to ask himself is "How long has it been like that?" Don't let this happen to you. Check your bait!
