Depending on the job market and the individual's plans & course of action, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months to find the right fit.

WEST GREENWICH, RHODE ISLAND, USA, March 20, 2023 /EINPresswire.com/ -- According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, a job search can take around five to six months from the time one applies for a job to the time one is hired. Additionally, an assessment by Harvard Business School found that the average time spent on job search activities, such as interviewing and networking, is estimated to take approximately 10 hours per week, as indicated by the common time spent on job search activities. It is worthwhile to note that it is not uncommon for the process to sometimes take longer than expected. Most successful job searches occurred when executives had a clear plan for the role they wanted and when they engaged in an initiative-taking manner throughout their search. Having a clear plan while maintaining a consistent course of action, executives can focus on the kinds of roles that are most suitable for them and stand out from the crowd.

After speaking with several leading career consulting experts, it became clear that to break free into another targeted career one simply must put in the work. According to John Seraichyk (Browning Associates Founder & Chairman), "The average Executive Job Seeker will spend six months to one year pursuing a job paying more than 150k annually. Indeed, market conditions, geography, salary, age, industry, etc., play a part in this calculation but more often than not, these criteria are fixed. In other words, if you are 65 years old and concerned about age discrimination, this is a fixed condition. (Losing some weight and a little hair dye does go a long way, though). There is one variable, however, that can be modified and used to your advantage and that is how you attack the job market. This is always alterable."

Networking, tailoring a resume, and enhancing one's brand will indeed help professionals stand out from the competition but the simple truth is that this requires due diligence on the executives' end. Often these execs will need a targeted approach and that is where the assistance of a career consulting firm to kickstart them in the right direction is the suitable choice. Looking for ways to upskill yourself or pursuing additional qualifications can also be beneficial and it is important to remember that the job market is constantly changing, so if in the past things haven't changed keep an eye out for new opportunities because new changes bring new ranges. "In my 31 years in this business, I've heard it said more than once, "He with the most "No's" wins!" Babe Ruth hit 714 home runs, but he also struck out 1300 times. Before the Harry Potter series became a staple read, J.K Rowling's first Potter manuscript was rejected a total of 12 times before Bloomsbury decided to publish it. Therefore, no matter the market conditions and obstacles, you must remember there is always a seat in the lineup for a home run hitter. As Randy Pausch once said, "Brick walls are not there to keep people out. They are for those who don't want it bad enough." - John Seraichyk.

Overall, taking on the challenge of pursuing a new career comes at the price of time, effort, and proactive consistency. Utilizing a career coach to help in the process will more often than not help in a drastically positive way. In addition to identifying one's strengths, weaknesses, and goals, a career coach can prepare people for interviews, build their resumes, and provide effective networking tools which will help those who are seeking, find their dream job. The decision ultimately comes down to whether an executive finds value in these resources and whether or not they would like the help of a career coach to help them transition successfully, timely, and in a more targeted way. The choice is theirs. For more information regarding this topic please feel free to read on by following this link here: – Finding a New Job in 2023 - EIN Presswire (einnews.com)
