By January 2, 2023 May 2nd, 2023 Job Seekers

New Year’s Resolutions don’t have to be about your fitness gains, spending less time on social media, or giving us a favorite guilty pleasure. Setting intentions for yourself that can benefit your career long-term is a great way to send you time and energy this January. Here are five job-focused New Year’s Resolutions that will take your career to the next level.

Make a Plan for a Promotion

Have you been eyeing a promotion for a while? Do you want to accept more responsibilities and get a raise? Now is the time to make a plan to do just that. Track your accomplishments, take on additional tasks, and determine when would be a good time to approach your boss about an opportunity. Or look for internal job openings to take that next step.

Kick Start Your Job Search

If you’re unemployed or want to leave your current position, kick-start your job search in the new year. Apply with a staffing agency to give you access to opportunities that aren’t being advertised. Make a list of ideal companies and follow them on social media. Update your resume and cover letter.

Learn Something New

Another way to advance your career is to take time to learn something new. This could mean returning to school to complete a degree or teaching yourself a new skill. Choose something interesting for you and give you an advantage when looking for a new job.

Get More Organized

Organization can make you more productive. Resolve to update your organizational skills at work by creating a filing system so you don’t lose important information, using a calendar to track your time, and making to-do lists to ensure tasks don’t fall through the cracks.

Increase Your Work/Life Balance

All work and no play can have a significant impact on your well-being. Now is also the time to commit to improving your work/life balance. Set boundaries with your time, don’t check your email after you’re off the clock, and make plans with friends and family to stay connected.
