3. Do’s and Don’ts
DO connect on LinkedIn with previous Life
Lessons attendees.
DO download your address book and connect
on LinkedIn with everyone you know!
DO research previous companies and schools
and connect with former employees/friends.
DO get as many recommendations as
possible!
DO craft a well-rehearsed elevator speech
that identifies your dream job!
4. Do’s and Don’ts
DON’T expect someone to assist in your job
search.
DON’T contact someone on LinkedIn and
make no personal reference regarding
opportunity, position, or mutual contact.
DON’T blindly request a phone conversation
or meeting without a clear objective.
DON’T spend more than 3-4 hours a week
filling out on-line job applications.
17. Do’s and Don’ts
DO remember you can never go wrong with
the humble approach!
DO know that people are willing to help, but
they don’t want to feel that you’re
aggressively pushing them to help.
DO follow up when you say you will. Your
credibility is magnified with people you don’t
know.
DO thank people who have helped you along
the way.
DO remember you are also in a position to
help someone else.
18. Do’s and Don’ts
DON’T not do what you say you will do.
DON’T assume just because someone works
at your target company, or knows someone at
your target company, that they are in a
position to help.
DON’T be shy about asking for help.
DON’T expect people you don’t know to
“carry the ball to a touchdown” for you.
19. Do’s and Don’ts
Life is a journey. This is a time in your life to
grow, learn, help, develop, and strengthen your
relationship with God. Use your time wisely
and make sure when you look back, it was time
well spent.
Value and appreciate it for what it is. It’s a
season of change, and when you get a job,
you’ll want to look back and realize all the
wonderful things that you gained from being in
career transition.
