Are you one of the thousands of job seekers who question their sanity, marketability, and capacity to make smart decisions-just because you’ve lost your job? Are you wondering how to overcome these psychological challenges, rebuild your self-confidence, increase your marketability, and regain your sense of sanity?

In today’s competitive job market you need more than a killer r?sum? and great interviewing skills to survive. Twenty-first-century job seekers must be able to deal with ambiguity, maintain a winner’s mindset, demonstrate customer focus, and have a blow-your-socks-off r?sum? and excellent interviewing skills. All of this requires that you be at the top of your game emotionally, physically, and mentally.

At one time or another, all job seekers face the same basic challenges: r?sum?s that don’t generate responses, telephone inquiries that don’t produce interviews, few or no callbacks for second interviews, networks that don’t perform, feedback from employers about not being a good match, and feeling stuck or otherwise unable to take action.

Why is it that some job seekers are able to overcome these obstacles and move on to interesting, well-paying positions, while others languish in low-paying, uninspiring jobs-or worse yet, simply drop out of the market? Smart job seekers have learned that 99 percent of job hunting has to do with developing a “Winner’s Mind-Set.” Apply these tips and you too will succeed in the job search mind game.

2. Seek positive outlets for the frustrations that inevitably surface during a job search.

3. Refrain from job hunting until they are emotionally ready and prepared with solid marketing materials: r?sum?, business cards, and references.

4. Take time to review and assess their accomplishments, knowledge, and abilities before developing their job search strategy.

5. Learn from the experience of losing a job-whether it was the result of downsizing, company closing, or other circumstance - and find a way to capture the essential elements of the event and explain them in a meaningful way during job interviews.
