Job searches are long processes, and even successful ones can get frustrating. For example, in July 2022, the average job seeker’s search lasted 22.1 weeks. While that figure represents a seven-week improvement from a year prior, the fact remains that you can typically expect to take 5– 6 months to find a job. Unfortunately, that means months’ worth of applications that don’t lead to the right offer.
On this episode of Find Your Niche: A Career Podcast, host Lori Cole talks about the lessons of failure with Chris Dyer, PeopleG2 Founder and CEO. The two delve into some strategies that career changers can employ to succeed as they pivot their work lives. They also discuss:
- Persevering during the trial and error of a job hunt
- How career changers can convince employers that their skills can transfer into new roles
- The difference between mistakes and errors at work
