How To Get a New/ Replacement Job In The City of Your Choice

Problem - You are not able to get a new/ replacement job in the city of your choice. This is making you feel negative about yourself.

Solution -

Concentrate on the positives of your life, specifically your achievements. Remind yourself of the good stuff from the past. This will help you gain the positive perspective.

Now, if you have been rejected by few companies does not mean that you have lost what it takes to get a new job. All it means is that you need to plan, prepare and prepare more to approach this job hunt in a new organized  way.

Here is what I suggest, you should do...

1. Make a list of potential employers/ companies in the City of your desire.

2. Visit the website of these companies and check what kind of openings they offer.

3. Also, visit the job search web sites and look for opportunities in these specific companies.

4. Change your profile/ CV to make it appealing for the specific job openings in these companies.

5. Prepare yourself for the selection process which may involve written test, case studies, technical interview rounds and HR round. Look for interview resources and information on internet. You will get plenty.

6. Prepare more.

7. Once you are convinced that you are prepared then apply for similar job openings in other cities where you actually don't want to join. Give some interviews. This is your live practice. Even if you get rejected there is no impact. If you get selected, you may think of joining or not joining based on need.

8. By now, you should have the confidence and enough preparation for sending job applications with the potential employers in the city of your choice.

Note: Changing a job is a career move and requires planning and organized approach for getting the desired profile. Above steps may or may not work based on the industry type.

Hope it helps.
