5 Common Mistakes to Avoid When Job Hunting

Job Hunting While Still Employed

​The straw has finally broken the camel’s back. You’ve decided that you need to find a new job. Before you jump directly into job hunting mode, take some time to read these five common mistakes that you should avoid while you look for a new job. Doing so may just save you a lot of time and trouble.
  • ​Don’t Gossip and Complain - Talking to coworkers about why you are unhappy may release pressure in the short-term, but in the long-term, there may be serious repercussions. Instead, use that energy to focus on updating your resume, contacting professional acquaintances, and searching through the job postings.

  1. Don’t Threaten to Leave - Everyone is replaceable, even you. Threatening to leave will most likely only result in your supervisor looking for your replacement. Resist the urge to use leaving as a negotiating tactic and focus on what you are looking for in your next position.
 
  1. Don’t Give Up - Keep doing your job, it is what you’re being paid for. If you stop doing your work, showing up on time, or being a conscientious worker (aka quiet quitting), you will only worsen the situation and bring your employment to an untimely end. Maintaining a positive attitude at work will allow you to be less noticeable in your job hunt and keep positive relationships with your coworkers.
 
  1. Don’t Make Decisions Based on Emotions - In the heat of a tense meeting or the aftermath of a critique from your supervisor, you may be tempted to make a rash and emotional decision. While your feelings are valid and you should take the time to process them, refrain from making a decision immediately. Hasty decisions are usually not the right ones.
 
  1. Don’t Quit Without a New Job - It may be tempting to up and quit your job without a new one lined up. Don’t do that. Having gainful employment while looking for a new job will make the process less stressful and not force you to take the first job that is offered. Taking a job because you must, may lead you right back to a job that you are not satisfied with today.
​You may not be in love with your job anymore, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t take your time while still working to search for a new job or career path. Avoiding these five common mistakes can make your job search much less stressful.
