Talking about Career…
We still meet a lot of young talents everyday searching for an opportunity and expecting that the company will offer them all they need: money, culture enrichment, free travel, career stability, promotion plan, meeting people and places, etc…
Then we ask them… what do YOU plan to give back to the company you are interested in? The answer is always very vague?!?! What this represents… Lack of planning, information and commitment. In order for any relationship be successful there might be a mutual exchange of interest.
In that way we suggest that you:
KEEP YOUR FOCUS
You need to take the necessary time and energy to figure out what are your main interests, which area you want to develop, what is your passion, what is your legacy?
SET TARGETS
By establishing your goals and objectives it makes it easier to set your route and in which directions your want to drive your career. Which courses you need to take, experiences you need more attention, which opportunities you must concentrate energy.
It’s very frustrating when we meet candidates without any idea of their professional future. We understand that sometimes the circumstances force us to take different directions, but if you don’t know where you want to achieve… nobody will;
PLAN YOU CAREER
Why are you taking this offer? Which specific knowledge do you plan to get out of it? What are the necessary steps you must take to get where you want? If you do not plan the map of your professional life, you must forget the success.
TAKE YOUR CAREER TO A DIFFERENT LEVEL
You are the main person responsible for your career. Find your passion. Translate it to your actions. Search, study, work hard, impress people around you, and make the company you work for successful by meeting and exceeding the results.
If you want to become the next President of your Country, “as an example”… work for it. Mr. Lula, the current Brazilian President and Mr. Obama, the President of the United States are great examples that nothing is impossible when you believe in your potential. They didn’t wait to be elected… they worked hard for it. So… do it!
