5 Steps to Accelerate Your Six-Figure Job Search
by Sharon Graham. Filed under: $100k+ Job Seekers.
Take positive steps to accelerate your six-figure job search in a tough economic environment:
- Change your attitude. Rather than focusing on the current economic situation or job loss, focus on your exciting, yet uncharted destination ahead.
- Tap emerging markets by researching thriving industries. Join new associations and groups, and investigate how you can add value to the new economy.
- Create your personal career brand. Develop a strong value proposition (your sales pitch) and brand identity (your portfolio logo and design) to stand out from your competition.
- Build your online business presence and use social networks such as LinkedIn. If your strength is in written communications, consider starting your own blog.
- Actively grow your network and database to include influential people. Target leaders, experts, and decision makers in your industry and develop mutually beneficial relationships with them.

This is a good point – especially the first one! Attitude can determine how high you fly or how fast you fall.
