Last night while giving our dog a bath in the front yard, our little Zachary started pointing to the driveway with a panicked look on his face. The water was fading out our menagerie of chalk animal drawings. We reassured him we could draw them again. Although the image was fading, the skills we used to make them
were still within us.
Often times we have candidates come through our office who are unsure of themselves. Maybe they are more mature and thought they would be retired by now, but are now re-engaging. Maybe they have stayed home with kids and now are ready to return to work. I hear them voice doubt that their skills have kept pace with technology or they may be a little rusty in certain areas.
Their doubt reminds me of Zach's panic. The lion can be drawn again.
The skills which helped you obtain your positions in the past will continue to
help you in the future. The things that cannot be taught are personality,
graciousness, willingness to work, and most of all dependability. Remember to
have faith in your skill set. Focus on your ability and know your inner
employable self (or lion) is there and ready to be unleashed.
