Career Coach: Job Descriptions
Career Coach: Job Descriptions — Have you noticed that Job descriptions seem to be getting more complex? With more industry-specific jargon, how do you know if you are a good fit? How do you even know if you WANT the role they are offering?
The place to start is to know yourself well. Best to be clear about what you want and even clearer about what you are bringing. And, this is where we focus on Your core skills.
Cutting out all the noise of the unicorn wish lists, the role creep, the AI-generated descriptions and all the automation. This way we can begin to hear who you are, what you want for your career and what you want to contribute as opposed to just what ‘they’ want from you.
Career Coach: Job Descriptions
We have been programmed to look outside of ourselves first: To meet what’s wanted, demanded and required of us before we consider whether it is what we want and need.
We are encouraged to be part of the machine, so perhaps it’s time instead to go within: Seeking instead to hear the quiet whisper inside of each of us that’s murmuring “This Way”.
.
It takes practice to hear this. We have become used to abandoning our hopes for our professional worlds. So, what would it be like instead to hear yourself, to stay with yourself, to accompany yourself along your career path?
Perhaps it’s time to quit abandoning yourself in favour of fulfilling other people’s dreams . . .
Let’s write YOUR job description so you know you are choosing to work, earn and learn in a way that suits you.
Might it be time to take ownership of your core skills and apply them to your dreams instead?
