Veja como você pode mostrar seu valor e causar uma impressão nos empregadores pós-demissão.

Throughout my career, I've always found the layoff of a peer ( or higher) an opportunity to step up and raise my hand to help in the interim period to keep all the balls in the air. Even if you are not skilled in the area being vacated, it's an opportunity to learn something new, and demonstrate your leadership qualities with a completely new group of people. It's really a no lose situation because if you are unfamiliar with the area being asked to manage, the bar will be low as superiors understand that and will give you more rope to get up to speed. In many of these occasions, I was asked to keep the unit I volunteered to manage and expanded my portfolio and resume. All it takes is the nerve to raise your hand and say I'm ready.

Your resume is the first impression potential employers will have of you, so it’s crucial to ensure it’s polished and up-to-date. Highlight your most recent achievements, responsibilities, and relevant experience. Tailor your resume to each job application by emphasizing skills and experiences that align with the job description. Use action verbs and quantify your achievements to demonstrate impact (e.g., "Increased sales by 20% over six months"). Additionally, ensure the layout is clean and professional, making it easy for recruiters to read and find key information.

An updated resume with truthful details is more valuable then a resume with fake details. Provide real and authentic detail of your educational, Job and certifications. So that the recruiters may easily find the best one among all. It helps you also in selection.

In today’s competitive job market, showcasing your skills effectively can set you apart. Create a portfolio or online profile that highlights your best work, projects, and accomplishments. Use platforms like LinkedIn to detail your professional journey, share articles or insights related to your field, and engage with industry-specific content. Consider obtaining certifications or taking courses to demonstrate your commitment to continuous learning and professional development. Emphasize both hard skills (technical abilities) and soft skills (communication, teamwork) in your applications and during interactions with potential employers.

What is seen is what is sold. So, show your skills and provide a portfolio of your work that you have done. As it is hard to believe on words. It also helps you to engage people and make them your customers.

Interviewing is a skill that improves with practice. Start by researching common interview questions and formulating thoughtful responses that highlight your experience and fit for the role. Practice answering these questions out loud, either alone or with a friend or mentor, to build confidence and refine your delivery. Focus on articulating your value, aligning your experiences with the job requirements, and demonstrating enthusiasm for the role and the company. Additionally, prepare questions to ask the interviewer, showing your interest in the organization and the position. Mock interviews can also be beneficial, providing a simulated experience and feedback to improve your performance.

For Interviewer : An interview is a one on one conversation where two people meet for a reason to identify the right person for the right place at a right time. For Interviewee : An interview is an opportunity to learn, practice and professionalise yourself for future career development and self development.

Never gave up. This is the only way you keep on thinking positive and make your self realise that there's still a hope of success.
