Employment Tips
Ever wonder why so many people job shift. The easy answer is: "I am tired of working like a dog, and getting nowhere." Translation - they are changing jobs because they don't have a career.
A job can be found nearly anywhere. However, a career is a long term commitment between an employer and employee. Careers aren't handed out, they are earned. Here are three simple tips to turn any job into a career.
Take a vested interest in the company!
If you want an employer to value you, then you must give them a reason to value your work, knowledge, and skill. I don't mean just being efficient at your job. It doesn't matter how efficient you are at your chosen profession, if you don't know the specific regulations, policies, core values, mission, etc.. of the employer.
Show that you care!
An employer can tell who is there for just another paycheck. A person who is trying to make a career will be more than willing to do their part in good, and bad times. The employee that goes the extra mile to cut cost, stay late, forgo a raise, etc.. in bad times, will be the person the company will remember in good times.
Be a team player!
The employee that calls in sick with every head cold, shows up late every other morning, takes long lunches, etc.. is not going to be seen as a dedicated employee. All of these things put a stress on someone else; causing other employees to take up the slack.
Furthermore, go beyond what is expected of you. Take the initiative to do the things, that you know will be asked of you, before it is asked. If you see that another employee is swamped, and it is something that you are capable and free to do, then help before you are asked to do so.
