Every business owner knows the value of effective marketing. As someone who is looking for a job, you have to learn the value of marketing yourself as well. Treat your job search as if you are conducting a project for your business. You’ve been assigned to apply for positions, submit your resume and get through the interview process successfully. If you change your perspective on your job search you’ll very likely find that you’ve automatically injected a new energy into your search. 

Take on the job search as if it was an assignment given to you from your boss. Your objective: land an interview. This will help increase your productivity. When you approach the job search as an assigned task, it takes on a completely different feel. You are now responsible for getting it done correctly, instead of procrastinating and dealing with doubt. When you approach it as a task, you are forced to put the doubts aside and start getting things done. 

Your first objective is to locate job leads. Make a list of all the possibilities available to you.  Some people network, which means going to professional events, talk to your friends and family about any possible connections they may have, and who they may know that may need your services.
