The 12 Steps of Job Search (full lyrics)
The first step of job search that earned success for me
Was learning that Plan A is key
The second step of job search that earned success for me
Buying the book “Switchers”
And learning that Plan A is key
The third step of job search that earned success for me
Doing market research
Reading the book “Switchers”
And learning that Plan A is key
The fourth step of job search that earned success for me
Deep self-reflection
Doing market research
“Switchers” on Kindle
And learning that Plan A is key
The fifth step of job search that earned success for me
Daily nettttt-wor-kinggggggg
Taking some assessments
Building strategies
Sirius XM
And Career Talk is always PG - 13
The sixth step of job search that earned success for me
A focused resume
Daily netttttt-work-ingggggg
But I hate small talk
It’s just making friends
Chapter 8 in Switchers
And remembering that Plan A is key
The seventh step of job search that earned success for me
Revamping my LinkedIN
Achievement-based resume
Daily netttt-work-inggggg (There's a quiz!)
Create ambassadors
But I have no time
Schedule it each day!
And just flat out ignoring Plan B
The eighth step of job search that earned success for me
Practice interviewing
500 LinkedIn contacts
Or more!
A strong profile statement
Daily nettttt-work-ingggggg (Talk it up, talk it up, talk it up)
I’m an introvert
Just be curious
And read the book “Switchers”
And just get rid of your Plan B
The ninth step of job search that earned success for me
Conscientious branding
You should probably do more practice interviews
Clean up social media
Tailored cover letter
Daily netttt-work-ingggg (Daily networking)
I don’t know anyone
What about your friends?
They must know someone
And make sure that Plan A is key
The tenth step of job search that earned success for me
Negotiate the offer
Value proposition
Plan to get there early
Nail the LinkedIn Headline
Remove filler phrases
Daily netttt-work-inggg (Why do you hate it??)
Doing market research
Be easy to help
Hire a coach
And recalling that Plan A is key
The eleventh step of job search that earned success for me
Thanking those who’ve helped me
Sleeping before signing
Unique Selling Points
Inside referrals
2nd level contacts
Using action verbs
Daily netttt-work-ingggg (Just do it!)
I don’t like big crowds
Even phone chats work
Tune into Career Talk
And yeah, yeah Plan A is key (Yes it is)
The twelfth step of job search that earned success for me
Paying it forward
Sending thank you notes
Negotiating perks
Ya gotta do that branding
Asking smart questions
Tailored LinkedIn invites
Stellar references
Daily netttt-work-ingggg (Sing it girl)
Clarity through action
Invest in them first
Just read the book “Switchers”
And be confident in all you can be!
