Welcome back to the final lecture of the applicants hired masterclass, I hope you got a lot of value out of this course. Just know that I'm always looking forward to your feedback. And if you have any questions, comments or concerns, you know where to find me. But I do want you to know that in the end, after everything you've learned at this point, you've learned everything that I could possibly teach you about everything that I could possibly teach you about onboarding about how to get a job, how to write a resume, what is it that people are looking for, and what they aren't. But getting the job is easy. sustaining a career is really the hard part because you're going to have ups and downs.
And when I tell you this, it's because I myself had had my failures. I've also had my successes, but I had to fail in order to see what was it that I could do different in order to move on and move forward in my career. And quite simply, I do want to let you know that there are certain things that I can't teach you in regards to, to onboarding to your career performance to your overall Work, Work progression. And that's what I want you to know from here. When it comes to getting a job or starting a career, or maybe you're freelancing, there are certain things that can't be taught you have to develop these over time. And it really goes back into motives and really your overall motivation factor.
How motivated Are you are to get the job done? How driven internally are you to get the job done? Some people rely on money to do a job because it's motivating. But when you have passion, when you have the sense of worth that you need to fulfill it, that that's when you're being driven. And there are certain things that I can't teach you because you have to develop them over time. And one of the Those things is work ethic, I cannot teach you to work hard, I cannot teach you how to manage your time.
Now, I know there's some courses out there that show you about time productivity, but it really goes back into your drive and your motivating factors that allow you to manage your time, because it's in fast paced environments, it can get quite hectic that hey, you know, you have to really know to the tee how to spend your time and use it wisely. You have to know the what what the day brings in so you know where to put certain certain tasks, duties or responsibilities to get it done. Another thing is going out of your way, and doing just a little bit more just a little bit extra. So if you know someone needs helping you have 100 things to do. And you know that if that if you help the one person that's next to you or below you, who's struggling, that shows team collaboration, and that's what people look for and and really That goes into the fact that you know for sure that you have the empathy and the soft skills and the people skills of Let me help you with this problem.
And then then in one case, can you help me with mine because you're good at it. And I have that one skill or that just a little bit more insight than you do to help you. I can't teach you that. You have to be willing to go out of your way. You have to be willing to to, to really think outside the box of just not not just not yourself. Another thing is, is being prepared and taking action.
So I give you this skill, I gave you all these resources, I gave you everything that I can but are you prepared to take action? Are you prepared to actually craft a resume and then submit it and then be willing to get a rejection and are you content with receiving a rejection, okay, if that's the case, then maybe you could tweak a little bit a little bit more. What This isn't you're just on the resume or whether it's in your field. Are you willing to take action and see like, Okay, I'm willing to take this risk doesn't work. Okay, let me do it again. But I don't know everything.
You have to be willing to take the risk. You have to be willing to take the challenge. Because if you're not challenged, you're just gonna be there flatlining, because you don't know where to go next you need to be challenged. And that goes with you doing extra and showing initiative of what more can I contribute with what I know here and with what I can do, what more can I contribute back? And when it comes to that, all in all, it's also being coachable and having the energy and enthusiasm that shows that passion. Now a lot of people think they know everything, you're never going to know everything and or, you know, they just don't have the passion.
They are truly unsympathetic. They generally don't care. It's just a job for them, not a career. It's not a passion. They're there. Just to get by So there's one thing when when you meet expectations, another thing when you exceed them, are you always aiming to do better?
Are you always aiming to do more than what's on your plate? Because that's what shows your drive. That's what shows your passion and really are, are you showing that you can do more for the organization or company that you're working for? Now, whether you're freelancing or for somebody else, or maybe, maybe you take this skill, this resume writing skill, and, and you want to help coach people? Well, are you looking into graduate programs? Are you looking into outside resources?
Are you asking people who are in the field? You know, hey, I have this one client who wants to get to financial analysis doesn't have the skill during the financial analysis. What is your take on how you bring in people, new people into your business and what are what are you looking for? That is showing initiative and then when you contribute that information back it helps save them time. effort and trust to to get to where they want to be that and being coachable means to be able to take constructive criticism, whether whether it's from your clients, or whether it's from your your mentors or whether it's from your peers, can you take constructive criticism, hey, you're not doing a good job. But I know what, what you can do to make it better.
You have to be willing to remove your ego. And so that was that's what wraps it up guys. I hope you really got a lot out of this master class. I would really appreciate your feedback when it's due. And if you have any questions, comments or concerns, you know where to find me. Until then, stay tuned.
