The Grand Job Search. Thought the phrase was a myth, but I have been mistakenly wrong to think of it as that. I have warned you and don't say I never told you, The Job Search is no Myth. It is practically battle of the fittest and hey, I don't usually use cliches, but this cliche just seemed right to use. It has been 2 months and I scrolled up and down, job after job looking for my chance to rightfully pursue my dreams. I've already been to you simplyhired, your indeed and monster. Nothing seems to jump at me and command & conqueror me. Its no simply hire and its a monster of a task to find your future job.
Its like I'm on a safari with lets say 100 men, all wanting to shoot and kill their first elephant. The task of taking down such an animal is far greater than anyone's imagine and to think we all have to compete against each other makes this much more than a task, it makes it a competition of a lifetime. Once one of us has spotted the beast, it will not go unnoticed and if you fail to kill it, you've already lost your chance. I ask myself, what makes you a better hunter than all the rest? Its not what you will do to kill the elephant, but its likely more what skills do you have to take down the prey. Confidence also could come into play and direct us toward are you the Predator or the prey, but that would be too much of a cliche.
Locking down our confidence and focusing on the prey with our cross hairs will bring us to think, is this it? Am I suppose to kill this now or do I wait for something bigger? This elephant is only a baby and would I let everyone know that I'm seeking out to settle for a baby of a task? My job is not going to be childish. I never said I didn't want to make children films, but how am I suppose to reach something I already know I can do? There has to be people out there like me who have the same mindset, they think the job would be a perfect fit for their skills. They seem to be set on having this job and only this job.
Thats why when you are the first to find the mammoth, its best to think and see how others react. The pressure of killing the mammoth of a job in one shot, is disastrous. DON'T be the first to shoot, be the second, third, heck even tenth. Just stay away from number one, people with no talent go number one because they need to make sure their eagerness overshadows their lack of skills.
We just need to be confident, in ourselves, our abilities and with the employer. They will know the best fit for the position. You may never land a job on your first shot. That only means your waiting for bigger and better opportunity in the game of life.
