Finding the right job

harrison_barnesSix months ago my friends and I had a competition which is, whoever got a job first will be treated by each of us. So right after college each of us really struggled to find the right job. It took us a month before one finally got her dream job. So as agreed, we gave her our treat. After four months we all got the job except the youngest one in the group. She said that she is trying her best in every exam and interviews. She has also tried applying online and sometimes even submit her resume to every office with opening positions but still no luck. So I tried to help her out. Every time there is a job fair I always let her know. Unfortunately, she is still struggling and sometimes loses hope. But I always assure her that one day she’ll get hired. One time while I was surfing the net, I tried to find a job for my friend. When I clicked the job search, I was redirected to a site that provides career advice. I knew then that this is what my friend needs in order to gain back her self-esteem. So I called her immediately and told her to check out the site. She finds it very useful and I am so glad that she has regained her confidence. I myself also admired that site. It talks about the life lessons, how you should market yourself and the importance of being organized. I have read most of the posts and even shared it to my other friends. It is very uplifting to every individual who can’t seem to find the right job for them. After three weeks my friend finally got a job. We were so happy for her so we also gave her a treat. Since then, every time we encounter any odd circumstances we just check out that site. I believe that it is very important to enjoy your work and never let anyone take that away from you because if you do, you might resign and become unemployed. Being employed is very important especially in our economic condition. And in case you don’t love what you are doing, never lose hope. Instead get a job where you could be your best. I am sure that it will lead you to success. Now my friends and I always try to encourage one another that we should focus on our strengths and try to improve our weaknesses.
