With the right guidance, she understood her market value better and negotiated successfully - and she got it! It's important to mention that Arielle dedicated herself to the job search process. Even though it took her 9 months, she stayed focused and believed in herself. This perseverance is crucial in any job search!

As the summer vacation officially kicks off in Israel today, you might be tempted to put your job search on pause. I understand you! ✦ Many businesses tend to slow down hiring ✦ Kids are out of summer school earlier than usual ✦ People are enjoying their summer vacations But my suggestion is: 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀. Here's why and how: 🤝 Networking: Use the relaxed summer vibe to your advantage. Join community events or even beachside gatherings. You never know - your next job lead might come from a casual conversation over watermelon and limonana! 🕵️ Ecosystem Deep Dive: Use this quieter time to research the Startup Nation thoroughly. Understand the main companies' culture, recent projects, and future goals. When interviews resume, you'll be impressively prepared. 💼 Informational Interviews: Reach out to professionals in your field for virtual coffee chats. With more relaxed schedules, they might be more open to sharing insights about working in Israel. 🌱 Volunteer Opportunities: There is still plenty of volunteering needed due to the ongoing war. Volunteering can expand your network, improve your Hebrew, and show potential employers your commitment to the community. 🖋️ Content Creation: Start a blog or contribute to industry publications about your professional journey in Israel. It's a great way to showcase your expertise and improve your visibility. 📚 Skill Up: Use this time to invest in yourself. Take an online course or attend a summer Ulpan. Improving your Hebrew or adding a new skill could set you apart when hiring picks up again. 🔄 Review Your Strategy: Use this time to reassess your job search approach. Are you targeting the right roles? Is your CV optimized for the Israeli market? Make necessary adjustments now. Remember, as an Oleh Chadash or newcomer to Israel, your global perspective is an asset. Use this summer to align your international experience with local market needs. Your persistence during this "slow" period could be what sets you apart when companies ramp up hiring again. Stay motivated, stay visible, and most importantly, stay hydrated! Is there anyone in the crowd who has been successful with their summer job search strategies? Did I forget any creative ideas? Share them in the comments!

Meet Leonardo Krimberg, a talented graphic designer who started a new chapter by moving to Israel from Brazil just a year ago. In Brazil, Leonardo worked as a Marketing Graphic Designer and Art Director. After moving to Israel, he kept himself busy by volunteering and freelancing, while trying to find new and exciting career opportunities in his field. Our paths crossed in December 2023 at the Gvahim Career Center, where we bonded over our shared Brazilian background and experiences. Leonardo was looking for personalized assistance, so he contacted me for career advice. In our one-on-one sessions, I helped him polish his CV to fit the Israeli job market and taught him some tricks to shine in interviews - like how to make a genuine connection with interviewers without seeming intrusive. Thanks to his boosted confidence and new skills, Leonardo landed a job as a Content Manager at Linguana, a growing startup.

If you spot a job you're interested in, don't hesitate to reach out to me or even to Leonardo directly. We're here to help and can pass along your CV. ▶️ If you're struggling to land a job even with referrals, I'm here to chat, give advice, and help you overcome the hurdles of finding a job in Israel.

Whether you're just beginning your job search and seeking clarity or need personalized guidance, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Leonardo's journey is proof that with determination, support, and a bit of know-how, navigating Israel's job market can lead to success. I'm eager to assist more Olim on their path to fulfilling careers in the Startup Nation. Thank you so much for the testimonial, Leonardo! 🙏🏻
