Dear Subscribers,
I have heard from many pilots how they feel the current path to their ‘dream’ job seems unfair and at times leaves you scratching your head saying “how did that person get hired and not me?” I am sure you have heard the saying, ‘life is not fair!’ This saying still holds true. Life is about timing and most importantly your actions. What are you doing to make yourself stand out? What lengths are you willing to go to, to achieve your ‘dream’ career goals? Take a few moments to really think about these questions.
I have heard from many people that they refuse to spend the money to go to job fairs and they feel that it is a scam, but these are the same people that are not getting the job offers they so desire. This reminds me of a saying from a mentor I once had, “no one is going to knock on your door and offer you a job. You need get off your couch and get yourself out there!” And this is the reason why some are left scratching their head saying, “how did so and so get hired?” because that person took the risk to stand out.
My daughter, Briana, made a sign on her bedroom door. It reads, “You may Fail when You Try but You will fail Yourself if You don’t try.” I encourage all of you to take the advice of a nine your old girl and get out there and Try! It doesn’t have to be a job fair, but find your way to get noticed.
