Quitting an old job to pursue a career in a new place is not an easy matter for everyone because it means you have to be prepared to accept all the changes that occur in your career life, be it your work environment, work rhythm, coworkers, or your boss's leadership style.

Therefore, before deciding to change employment, it is a good idea to consider the following:

Clear and Strong Reasons
Quitting the old job to work in a new place is a pretty difficult decision. So you have to make sure your reasons are truly accountable and clear. Don't regret it later on! :-)

Know Your Skills and Potential
Getting to know your skills and potential is essential for pursuing a brighter career. The first step is to write down all your expertise or ask colleagues about their opinions about you. After knowing what skills and potential you have, then you can sort out which skills can be used in your next job.

Take advantage of your network
In the world of work, expertise is not enough to help you succeed in your career. Don't forget to take advantage of the network you have in pursuing your career. Apart from the internet and print media, you can ask job vacancies to your friends, family, coworkers, and so on. Very important too, you ask for some of your networks, especially those that have important positions as a reference for you.

Consider Work Experience
In choosing a new job, it is very important for you to consider your previous work experience. This is very important for your future career because the average job provider is looking for employees who already have experience in the same field for the position they need.

Those were the things that you need to consider to look for a new job. Good luck!

Last Thursday (3/10), DNetwork held a 5th Job Seeker Gathering with the theme "Beyond Limitations with Writing" (Beyond Boundaries through # Writing). This event aims to equip journalistic fans with disabilities with knowledge and skills so they can start writing and bring up an accurate representation of disability in the media. In addition, this event also aims to train two blind people who have been chosen as contributors to Solider.id, who in the future will cover disability issues in Bali.

Speakers in this activity include:

• Kambali Zutas from the Bali Tribune who shared his views on the journalism profession and knowledge of basic news writing.
• Made Adnyana Ole from Mahima Institute Indonesia, which manages Tatkala.co, who led the discussion on how to start being a writer.
• Anton Muhajir from BaleBongong who explained the importance of citizen journalism and why it is important for disability representation.
• Yanti from Solider.id who shared her experience as a contributor.
• DNetwork thanks all those who have supported this activity so that it is going well.

 

See you at the next DNetwork event!
