Redundancy brings change and opportunity
Redundancy can be a huge shock and inevitably brings a period of change. Redundancy can be challenging, but it can also provide change for the better and significant opportunities.
Here are some top tips from The Eventus Recruitment Group if you find yourself facing redundancy:
Develop a schedule and routine
Just as you would in your working day, create a schedule and develop a routine for yourself. Allocate time slots for various tasks. These may include researching organisations you’d like to work for, keeping up-to-date with industry news, checking job vacancies and speaking with your Recruitment Consultant.
Stay active
Don’t neglect your health and wellbeing. Make time to develop your network and connect with people. For advice on using LinkedIn to develop your network: <click here>. Make sure that you look after yourself and eat healthily. Invest energy into taking some time to take a daily walk and exercise. Don’t stay sat on your sofa all day.
Develop your skills
Focus on identifying your strengths and improving those, build on your strengths and look at taking action to turn weaknesses around. Visit your local library, sign up to an online course or book on some training. <Click here> for advice on personal development planning.
