What To Do Between Jobs? Take Time For Self Improvement

While you are out of work and looking for a job, what should you do? According to some job reports during the last quarter of 2008, it took about three months to find a new job. Starting the new year of 2009 with an increasingly growing unemployment rate, the time to find a job has grown to four to seven months. Since you can’t sit at your desk looking for a new position eight hours a day, use this perfect time to brush up on your professional skills or even learn new ones you never considered before.

You might as well make good use of this time and increase your ability to secure a new and even more exciting career. There couldn’t be anything better than explaining to a new prospective employer that you used your time off to learn new selling skills, improved your computer skills, enrolled in a college course to advance your career or purchased some CD or DVD sales training courses. Just think about it for a moment, if two candidates are interviewing for a job, one said they spent their time catching-up on odds and ends around the house while searching for a job and the other candidate said they spent the time brushing up on a particular job related skill or they decided to learn new skills that will launch their career in a different direction, who would you hire? Which type of behavior in an individual do you think would make a better employee? Employers are looking for people that are enthusiastic and willing to learn; not lazy ones. I urge you to go get some professional sales training.

To help you decide which direction to go, one suggestion would be to look at what types of jobs recover fast when a bad economy starts to turn for the better. First, you should look at what job sectors have done fairly well during the bad economy. These will be the first ones to show strong growth as the markets return. Our suggestion would be to take some beginning or advanced sales training courses in the following areas.

• The first one is sales and marketing. In order for any company to rebound, they need a strong sales team to start the cash flowing again. This sector also has some of the highest income potential.

• Another sector is security. The need for national security is increasing every day. Jobs that protect our borders, ports and information security IT systems will be strong.

• Look for energy related jobs. One of the new President’s goals concerns oil and gas, alternative and renewable energy and nuclear energy.

• The environmental sector is another great one. There will be a high demand for selling products related to global warming and green technologies.

• Education. As teachers retire and more money is poured back into our education system, 2.75 million teachers will be needed.

• Health care. As the population ages, more and more demand will be placed on selling new products and services to support the elderly, a growing need for more nurses and assistants, and medical records technicians.

• This year and beyond will see an increased need for services related to pharmaceuticals including pharmaceutical sales, advanced drug initiatives and health care reform.

Be prepared. Take this valuable time to learn and advance your career. Don’t look back and say I should have done something positive during the time I had off looking for a new career.
