Don't find a job. Find a manager.

My Career Principles

Don't find a job. Find a manager. It’s not the job title that matters but who you work for. Are your values aligned with your values and goals? Is it somewhere you can comfortably fit in and work towards your dreams?

In this episode, I share some of my career philosophies. Although I have not been in my career for a long time, with my experience in HR, I have some valuable career philosophies you shouldn't miss out on.

In the session, I dive deep into why who you work for matters more than the job title, ensuring your values align with your recruiter and embracing that your career path doesn’t have to be perfect.

Besides, I share the importance of building your career on your own terms rather than other people’s opinions and why you must consult God in every decision.

Highlights From The Episode
[01:55] Who you work for is more important than what you do

[04:43] Why should you be clear on who you want to work for and what places you fit in

[06:27] Understanding you’re the prize when you get hired, it’s not a favor

[07:16] Ensuring big companies hiring you align with your values

[08:15] You get what you ask for, not what you deserve

[11:10] About my online group “purposed to paid.”

[13:22] Don’t focus on having a perfect career path

[15:42] Building a career on your terms

[16:32] Consulting God on any decisions you want to make

Notable Quotes
●Don’t focus on the job title. Focus on the problem you want to solve.

●If you’re in a place that doesn’t align with what you align with, it will be draining.

●When you start to think of who you want to work for versus what you want to do, you keep yourself in a position where you can go after what you want and not just what’s available.

●If you start to advocate for yourself, you will see your career move a lot faster.

●The way to ensure you get the most out of something is to ask.

<h2>Personal Development Is More Important Than Professional Development</h2> A lot of people put a lot of emphasis on professional and career development but don’t put enough on personal development.In this episode, I discuss why your personal development is more important than your career.Why should you focus on what’s happening on the inside rather than external issues and develop yourself besides your career? Besides, I dive deep into analyzing what’s stopping you from realizing your full potential and being the best version of yourself. <h2>Highlights From The Episode</h2>[02:34] Importance of personal development[04:34] Focusing on the wrong things[06:00]My coaching philosophy[08:26] Acknowledging that you are a person outside of your career[09:42] Who you are is who you bring into your career[12:04] Self-work and self-awareness[14:55] Analyzing what is stopping you from becoming who you want[15:17] Focusing on being the best you[19:22] About my private group, “PurposedtoPaid.” <h2>Notable Quotes</h2>●“You have to become the person you need to be, get the kind of job you want, or even have the kind of career you want.”●A job title or even a specific amount of money will not change how you feel about yourself.●If you don’t attend to something, it won’t grow.●When you as a person start to grow and mature, you start to work on yourself and put yourself first. You will be surprised how opportunities will line up.●Being self-aware is one of the most important traits you can ever have in life.●When you’re not self-aware, you’ll keep a victim mindset.●Don’t just focus on having the best career. Focus on being the best you. Once you leave that job, you have to deal with yourself.●You can’t focus only on the goal. You have to focus on the person you will become as you reach the goal. <h2>Resources</h2>To connect with meWebsite | <a href="https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/</a>Instagram | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/</a>Send your career &amp; professional development questions to: <a href="mailto:Hello@IamAliciaPerkins.com" rel="nofollow">Hello@IamAliciaPerkins.com</a>Sign up to get free actionable career tips delivered to your inbox weekly:<a href="https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/email" rel="nofollow">https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/email</a>Join My Private Online Community | <a href="http://purposedtopaid.com/" rel="nofollow">http://purposedtopaid.com/</a>

EP10: How to Overcome Self-Sabotage in Your Career

Are Dream Jobs Real?Have you ever had a dream job? Maybe it was working as a research scientist on a fascinating project, being an Olympic athlete, or traveling the world with a company. If so, did you know that such jobs are actually called “dream jobs”? And do you know why? Because they are the kinds of jobs we all aspire to have. The trouble is, we don’t see many people who have them. After all, not everyone has the opportunity to choose from only those occupations that interest them. Many people must take whatever job is available in order to support themselves and their families.Working at a job you love can be more than just a personal goal; it can also have significant benefits for your career and personal life. In this session, I share about dream jobs if they are real and if they can change also setting realistic expectations for your job. <h2>Highlights From The Episode</h2>[01:17] Idea of a dream job changes.[03:28] Checking on yourself and its importance.[04:40] Base your job on the life you want.[05:56] Knowing what you need and where you want to be.[06:53] Importance of working backwards.[07:40] Importance of setting realistic expectations.[10:00] What is a dream job.<h2>Notable Quotes</h2>●     As you grow, and as you change, so are the things that you want.●     You really have to adjust as you grow, you ought you need to be always trying to check in with yourself, to see where you are.●     Our life is more than our job, a job needs to be based upon your life.●     You have the power to choose what you want to deal with.●     There is no perfect job.   <h2>Resources</h2>To connect with meWebsite | <a href="https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/</a>Instagram | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/</a>Ready to see how your personality affects your career?

<h2>Why Do We Stay in Jobs We Hate</h2> When we hate our jobs, work seems to go on forever. We procrastinate, make excuses and blame external factors that are “getting in the way” of seeing things through. But a job doesn&#39;t have to be a source of misery.In this episode, I will discuss an issue affecting many people, why they stay in a job they hate. Most people&#39;s career choices are affected by the people that surround them. The fear of being wrong and being tied to a check or job title may be another reason why people don&#39;t quit. Having a career plan will help you make a move and take a risk that might be worth it. <h2>Highlights From The Episode</h2>[02:02] Survey results on people that hate their jobs[03:14] How staying at a job you hate affects everything around you.[03:33] People stay so they won&#39;t disappoint people around them.[06:32] How job title and money will tie someone to a job they hate[11:50] How fear of being wrong makes people stay in jobs they hate[17:57] How to make a plan to avoid all this <h2>Notable Quotes</h2>●      You can get stuck when you only tend to think about the needs of everybody else except your own●      Do not be afraid to make a move that is going to better yourself.●     Always put your needs before the needs of the people that you work with.●      The longer that you stay, the harder it is to leave.●      The longer you have to wait for something, the less of a chance it is going to improve.<h2> </h2><h2>Resources</h2>To connect with meWebsite | <a href="https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/</a>Instagram | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/</a>Ready to see how your personality affects your career?

<h2>Here&#39;s How You Own The Interview Process.</h2> The interview is one of the more fascinating meetings in business. It&#39;s a stage where you&#39;ve proven yourself either to be a worthy candidate or not. Managing an interview and showing true value to your potential employer can set you apart from other competitors and put you in front of the race.In this episode, I share with you about the job interviewing process and the mindset you need to have when going for an interview, how to go in, and what to ask and not to ask for you to succeed in your interview. <h2>Highlights From The Episode</h2>[04:02] The purpose of the job interview process[04:42] What gets you the job.[06:12] Things that you need to say and do to make sure they hire you.[07:40] Importance of going in not being afraid to advocate yourself.[12:48] What a job search should be about.[15:05] Setting boundaries.[16:23] Speaking for yourself.[19:28] The headspace or the mindset you need to go in a job interview process.[22.33] Type of questions to ask and not to ask in an interview.[23:58] Things you need to be able to thrive. <h2>Notable Quotes</h2>●     If you&#39;re one that is always afraid that you are asking for too much, you are probably not asking for enough.●     Your career is not about everybody else being served but also needs to be serving you back as well.●     Don&#39;t allow yourself to do whatever you have to do just to get the job because it&#39;s not going to pay off in the end.●     What lands you the job is when you&#39;re able to like to close the gap between what it is that you have and what it is that they need.●     People are simply trained in just accepting what it is that they can get and not going after what it is that they want. <h2>Resources</h2>To connect with meWebsite | <a href="https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/</a>Instagram | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/</a>Send your career &amp; professional development questions to: <a href="mailto:Hello@IamAliciaPerkins.com" rel="nofollow">Hello@IamAliciaPerkins.com</a>Apply to Work With Me: <a href="https://portal.iamaliciaperkins.com/public/form/view/6213fc235341b7f6aa78dde6" rel="nofollow">https://portal.iamaliciaperkins.com/public/form/view/6213fc235341b7f6aa78dde6</a>Ready to see how your personality affects your career?

<h2>How to Change Careers The Right Way</h2> Deciding to change careers and start a new field can be a big challenge, but knowing the right way to do it can make things a lot easier. Learning how to switch careers is an art. Many people fail to understand that making a career switch requires more than just picking a new job title and training for it. In this episode, I will be discussing the right way to change your career. Although it may seem like a milestone, you can successfully switch careers with ease, all you need is a plan. You will also learn about focusing on why you need to switch careers by setting targets and also having the right mindset.<h2>Highlights From The Episode</h2>[01:30] Know why you are changing your career[02:18] What are your likes and dislikes about your current career[05:44] How to switch your career with ease[06:16] Set expectations of what your next career will look like.[07:54] Know and assess your actual skill set and new skills that you require?[11:33] How to retarget and repolish your brand[14:55] Who to talk to when Networking[15:20] Make a plan for your Career Search[17:55] How to change your mindset<h2> </h2><h2>Notable Quotes</h2>●     You don&#39;t have to necessarily base your career decisions on how you feel, but more out of purpose.●     Not being specific about what we want, can lead us to think that we&#39;re asking for too much.

<h1>The Cost of Settling in your Career</h1> Have you ever asked yourself, what can I do to get a better job? Or even a better career in general? While a lot of people might only ask this question when they feel stuck and unhappy with their current situation, it is important to evaluate the status of your career once in a while. The cost of settling in your career may be greater than you realize. In this episode, I am going to talk about how much it costs you to settle into a career. Having been in the HR sector for 10 years, I have met people who are not comfortable in the jobs that they are in. I have highlighted factors making people settle for less including fear which is dominant among most people. I have also talked about making a plan for your career to help avoid making mistakes. Stop procrastinating and do what you want without postponing. Don’t settle for less as you are of more value than you can imagine. <h2>Highlights From The Episode</h2>[02:51] What is the cost of settling?[04:23] How your career affects everything around you.[05;16] Choosing the right career and working for the right company[07:0] How fear makes people settle for less in their careers.[12:40] How to solve problems that you are facing in your career[14:06] What is the cost incurred if you fail to operate fully[19:39] How procrastination is killing your dream[20:39] Ways to help you stop settling for less. <h2>Notable Quotes</h2>●      I do what I do because I want to show people that it is possible for you.●     Having a great career isn&#39;t everything. But having a bad career impacts everything.●     It&#39;s not about you getting more. It&#39;s about you knowing the value of what you already have, and learning to repackage what you have for what you want.●     It doesn&#39;t matter how much more money you start to make, you still have to change the way that you think about yourself.●     To almost every problem in this world, there is a solution.●     If you can change your thoughts, you can change your life.●     Knowing what you don&#39;t want is just as powerful as knowing what you do want.●     The more that you think about these things, the easier it is to see these things.<h2> </h2><h2>Resources</h2>To connect with meWebsite | <a href="https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.iamaliciaperkins.com/</a>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicia-perkins/</a>Instagram | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/" rel="nofollow">https://www.instagram.com/iamaliciaperkins/</a>Send your career &amp; professional development questions to: Hello@IamAliciaPerkins.comReady to see how your personality affects your career?
