What is the best way to find a new job?

[Qiv_Owan]

If it doesnt become full time you still have 5 more months of experience and if you manage properly youll be in a good position financially to find another opportunity

After actively looking for a job for the past couple months, the best way to find a job is to know someone.

I guess that's what makes networking crucial.

I need to get to know more people and go to more networking events I hate that I was stubborn when I was younger when my dad was trying to tell me about the benefits of networking events

It really REALLY is. Unfortunately for me im pretty anti social. Maybe i will look into a job fair or something if i hear of one coming around. I dont need a job, but i definitely dont care to do what im doing for the rest of my life. Or with the company for that matter, cant see anything above me that i would enjoy either.

Smh 3 offers on the table. All within the same day of course. And each one of would be a potential good fit for what i'm trying to do with my career. I am undecided and never really dealt with this before.

2 of the offers is in finance and the other one is in design. There's things I really like (but don't love) about working in finance and there are things I love (but don't necessarily like) about design. The design offer isn't paying what my true market value is, but the guy was at least willing to bump up the starting pay to my minimum pay requirements, also with guaranteed room for growth as well. It's not a super cool name brand company like Nike or nothing - just a mom and pop shop basically, but after talking to the guy I became sympathetic to what he's trying to do (the business would really benefit from having a candidate like me with my skill set on board and he wants them to stick around) and told him i'd accept the offer for the position to start next week.

Soon after I left the interview I check my email and 2 other people reach out to me with offers - one of which was referred to me by brother at church - in a field I've been shooting for the past few weeks with no luck until now. I'm pretty sure both the offers have way higher earning potential from the gate. I want to at least see what the offers is all about with respect to them both considering me for the opportunity, but I'm feeling some kinda way since I pretty much already gave the other dude a commitment to start (although no guarantees to stay long term).

I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle this. What NOT to do in this situation? I already emailed one of the lady's and told her to call me today.

I would follow up on all job offers as far as you can or at least for enough time for you to decide what you really want.

Me personally, and this is coming from a job hopper so take it for what it is....I would take the offer that starts first just to get some money rolling in and if something better comes along jump ship and go with that.

but if you got some kinda personal moral issue with that then go with what feels right to you.

Yea made up my mind and decided to stick with the design job since he gave me what I asked for and I gave him my commitment to start already. Paid weekly. Weekends off. Plus I'd be like in a creative director role and like my own boss. No manager to worry about. And he'll let me run the shop myself once he teach me everything. I think it might be good move for me on long term. At least for now

I've been missing in action from the IC for awhile; just trying to prepare & prep myself for the next venture. I am very closed to finalizing my deal to my next location. I am pushing for a strong campaign to move out to Nashville. I'm riding out there this weekend to get a feel for the city. Only thing I'm going to hate is probably moving in the middle of the college semester, so I gotta see how many credits can I transfer over. I gotta change up the scenery, get a smell of fresh air in a new city.

It really REALLY is. Unfortunately for me im pretty anti social. Maybe i will look into a job fair or something if i hear of one coming around. I dont need a job, but i definitely dont care to do what im doing for the rest of my life. Or with the company for that matter, cant see anything above me that i would enjoy either.

I'm the same way. I finally swallowed my pride and put it out there on FB that I was looking for leads. My old boss happened to see it and told me to submit my resume to the company she had just started working for..she basically got me in the door. People want someone to vouch for you.

Good references are important.

I did the exact same thing on FB as well. I have a temporary job because of it, still looking for a permanent tho.

I believe it's not just networking with people, it's also the area you're in. Definitely have to be around the area where your market is.

Pick one and lie yo ass off like Hunkies do. Bullshit ya way through it. Think I told y'all. Gig I got now? Went in: Pumas no socks, golf shirt no tie and leaned back sooooo comfortable with the panel of Hunkies I Interviewed with. Fuck it, it's a job out there for ya. Don't kiss no ass and u'll find ya fit. Corporate job by the way, I don't do physical labor.
