In today's economy job changes are certain. Sometimes they can be forced upon people when companies go out of business, companies lay off employees due to cost saving measures or they can just simply downsize due to their competition or lost revenue.
Are you prepared to invest in yourself and protect your ability to earn income? You should take the following quiz to see if you are prepared to face the next round of employment cuts:
Have you ever conducted a honest and recent assessment of your strengths and weaknesses at work?
Have you recently reviewed your job description to make sure that you are not exceeding in your job responsibilities?
Do you currently hear about jobs that are available at other companies but are not advertised?
Has a co-worker left your company recently to take a new job? Have they recommended you for any open positions in their new company?
Have you looked into finding easy ways to gain further education or training in your chosen career?
Did you answer yes to all of the questions? That is excellent, you are truly investing in yourself and preparing yourself for the future. If you did not answer yes to all of the questions, you might not be as secure or as prepared in your current job as you think. You financial and career goals are way too important to leave in the hands of your employer. Do not let yourself be unprepared or surprised. Instead you need to concentrate on your career and your future.
