The smart approach to landing the right job for you: Before you submit your next job application, ask yourself these questions: 1) Does the offered salary match my current lifestyle? Establish a baseline figure you're comfortable with. 2) Will this job nurture my professional growth and align with my long-term goals? Look for tangible reasons how this role can propel you forward. 3) Will I be genuinely excited to wake up for work each morning if I land this position? If the job description doesn't light a spark, it might not be the perfect fit. #CareerGrowth #ChooseWisely #JobHunting

Traps to Be Aware of While Accepting a Job Offer 🕵️♂️🚩 Excited about a new job offer? Before you sign on the dotted line, be aware of these potential traps that could impact your career growth and job satisfaction: 💸 Vague Compensation Details: Ensure the salary, bonuses, and benefits are clearly outlined. Don't accept vague promises or unclear terms about your compensation package. 🕒 Undefined Work Hours: Be wary of terms like “flexible hours” without specifics. Clarify expected work hours and overtime policies to avoid unexpected demands on your time. 📈 Unclear Career Growth: Look for clear pathways for advancement and professional development. Ambiguous growth opportunities can lead to career stagnation. 🏢 Company Culture: Research the company's culture and values thoroughly. A mismatch can lead to job dissatisfaction, even if the role seems perfect on paper. 📝 Job Description Gaps: Make sure the job description aligns with what was discussed during interviews. Unlisted responsibilities can be a red flag indicating potential overwork. 🛠 Lack of Resources: Confirm that you’ll have the tools and support needed to succeed in your role. Lack of resources can hinder your performance and growth. 📉 Financial Stability: Research the company's financial health. Joining a company in a shaky financial situation can be risky for your long-term career prospects. 💬 What other traps should job seekers watch out for when accepting a job offer?

Your references may not be as good as you think they are, if you job hop. I talked to a manager recently who complained that he keeps getting called as a reference by would-be employers for an employee who stayed about two years in a job. The employee did a great job. That was 3 years ago. And now the employee has switched jobs two more times. Both times moving up the ladder to new jobs. But that reference? He feels burned. And his comments will be far from glowing. He sees the employee very differently now. Is that fair? Not necessarily. Is that life? Yep. Job hoppers, beware. Your references are watching--even if you did well for them. People change, opinions change. and you shouldn't assume anything about their opinions on you over time. #careertips #careerchange #jobreferences #jobsearch #careeradvice

Why would you talk to a recruiter if you aren't actively job searching? 1️⃣ Market Knowledge. We can can answer tough questions. Am I getting paid fairly? What does the outlook look for my position? What is the best market for my expertise? Should I look for a new job now or later? 2️⃣ General Advice. We provide great advice. What do you think of my resume? What experience should I be getting? Do you think I am well positioned to advance in my career? 3️⃣ Make a Connection. Chances are you won't stay at your current company for the remainder of your career. Have a trusted and knowledgeable recruiter you can reach out to when the time comes. 4️⃣ Help your Network. If you're not looking, maybe a friend, family member, or colleague is. Put them in touch! 5️⃣ Golden Opportunity. This one is my personal favorite. Maybe you're not actively looking, but would considering moving for the perfect opportunity. That may mean a better work life balance, a higher salary, a more prestigious company, or a chance to work in your area of interest. You never know how many times we have these conversations and the golden opportunity presents itself shortly after a conversation. #careers #banking #wisconsinbanking #finance Reach out directly! 605-231-4529 joe.albert@gogpac.com

🌟 Rethinking Job Hopping🌟 In today's competitive job market, it's easy to fall into the trap of labeling candidates as "job hoppers" based solely on their employment history. But what if there's more to the story than meets the eye? Consider this: Perhaps the candidate was laid off unexpectedly, or maybe they didn't have the opportunity to grow and develop in their previous roles. Maybe they were subjected to excessive micromanagement or found themselves in a toxic work environment. Or perhaps they simply sought better compensation to support their family. The truth is, there are countless valid reasons why someone may have moved from job to job, and these reasons are becoming increasingly common in today's ever-evolving workforce. So, the next time you come across a candidate with a varied employment history, take a moment to consider the multitude of factors that may have influenced their journey. By adopting a more open-minded approach, you may uncover hidden gems and valuable talents that you might have otherwise overlooked.✨

𝘼𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙩 𝙖 𝙘𝙧𝙤𝙨𝙨𝙧𝙤𝙖𝙙𝙨 𝙞𝙣 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙘𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙧? 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘾𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙝 𝙨𝙖𝙞𝙙 𝙞𝙩 𝙗𝙚𝙨𝙩: "𝙎𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙄 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙮 𝙤𝙧 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙄 𝙜𝙤?" A friend's daughter was faced with this dilemma. She had been in her first job for nearly a year, but was unhappy and disrespected. She had another job offer in a different industry with better pay. The question was whether to stay for job continuity or go and take the new job. While many don't have the luxury of considering job opportunities while employed, my advice to her was to take the calculated risk. If you have the financial means or support, starting over in a new job where you can work in an environment that respects you and where you enjoy the work can be a game changer. It's always helpful to get advice from others with an independent view and fresh perspective. And in this case, it was the right move. The smile on her face when we met virtually said it all. Remember, taking a chance on yourself can lead to great things... Make sure to follow my friends Melissa Grabiner, Gregg Salkovitch and fellow author, GEORGE C.
