Always keep an open-mind when making decisions, some of my best career moments have happened after I said yes to something that I wanted to say no to, being outside of your comfort zone is when you will learn the most! Create goals to ensure you have things to aspire and work towards, this will keep you on the right path and motivated. Prior to making big decisions, do your research, ask questions and don't worry if you don't understand something the first time - resilience is they key to success.

Let your personality shine - This is what will stand out to a potential employer. Other applicants may have just as much experience as you, but what they don’t have is your unique personality, so really bring that into your interview process. Do not let the job description scare you - it is ok to not tick all the boxes. Job descriptions are full of jargon and can be confusing to an outsider, do not let this put you off, if it is a role you think you are a match for, you are probably more than capable to perform in the role, and companies are likely to offer training to get you up to speed on the aspects you don’t yet have experience in. Don’t just be interviewed, do the interviewing – The potential employer want to ensure they are finding the right candidate, but you also need to be sure you are finding the right employer, don’t be afraid to ask questions and challenge the working environment. You spend most of your life at work, you need to be sure you are finding an environment that aligns with you personally. Be honest with yourself and the interviewer. A mantra of mine is to do a job you love. “Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.” – Steve Jobs

As a recruiter, I would advise potential candidates to focus on showcasing their unique strengths and experiences authentically. Tailoring resumes to highlight relevant skills and accomplishments is crucial, as is researching the company and role thoroughly to demonstrate genuine interest and alignment. Additionally, I encourage candidates to leverage networking opportunities and reach out to professionals in their desired field for advice and support. During interviews, it's essential to articulate one's passion for the role, ask thoughtful questions, and demonstrate a growth mindset by being open to feedback and learning opportunities. Lastly, maintaining a positive attitude and perseverance in the face of challenges can make a significant difference in the job search journey. Remember, each interaction is a chance to learn and grow, so stay proactive, adaptable, and confident in your abilities.
