Here are some tips for the unemployed: - Don't isolate yourself. Without work, some people become hermits. Most jobs involve some sort of social interaction, be it with co-workers or customers. For many people, the workday is also the most frequent opportunity for social interaction. Spending some time alone can be healthy; just make sure you don’t take overdo it. A lot of people feel ashamed or embarrassed about being unemployed, and as a result avoid social situations. As tempting as it may be to dodge friends and family, it can become a dangerous habit. You need support to make it through this transition with minimal stress and anxiety. Aside from that, interactions allow you an opportunity to put your worries aside and have fun. You’re dealing with enough stress—don’t you deserve a break? - Remember that social connections are your biggest resource. Another reason to stay social and engaged is that it’s one of the best ways to find your next job. When you’re struggling, the intimate seclusion found searching job lists and sending out endless resumes is enticing. While there’s nothing wrong with responding to job ads, it’s not nearly as effective as using your social network to find new opportunities. It’s like they say: sometimes it’s not what you know, it’s who you know.

It's about knowing the right people and building networks together! Imagine a world where connections snowball, opportunities cascade, and doors fling open not just for you, but for everyone you touch. That's the magic of a synergistic network, where giving becomes the ultimate currency. Time to ditch the solo act! Build bridges, share your expertise, and watch the ripple effect illuminate your career and empower others. ✨ What's your secret weapon in your network arsenal? Share your tips and let's build a community that rises together! ✊ #PowerOfThree #NetworkSynergy #CareerCompass

Who knew? Yes, LinkedIn has introduced a gaming section. You can find it under 'My Network' on your mobile app or your desktop at https://lnkd.in/gVZ4-h-x. An unexpected twist for a platform once solely for professionals to network. Now you can enjoy a brain break between those intense networking sessions and job hunts. Why not take a moment to challenge a colleague to a quick game? A new way to break the ice. A refreshing take on building connections that goes beyond the usual professional exchange. Game on, LinkedIn. Let's see where this will take us in the networking realm. https://lnkd.in/gS6eejAc

Community Spotlight, Post #11: Games Jobseekers, Highlight Yourselves. PURPOSE I want to break backward and tired stigmas such as the belief that those posting and still looking for work must be weaker candidates, or that those without broad support are less desirable. Such views are gross, offensive, and inaccurate, and we crossed the line of all available candidates being stars years ago. It's simply a tough market, and as far as I'm concerned, anyone identifying themselves in our community is a star. HOW THIS WILL WORK If you are a games jobseeker, please make a post in the comments highlighting yourself in any way you want. You could focus on your past accomplishments or talk extensively about what type of job you are looking for (function, seniority, location, remote flexibility, and more); I leave it up to you. If you see a games jobseeker whom you want to support, I strongly encourage you to leave a comment speaking to their talents and skills. WHO IS ELIGIBLE Anyone who is either: - Unemployed and seeking work in games (or who was in games and is seeking any work) - Recently graduated from school and looking for work in games but can't find it - A senior in college who has been looking for work in games and can't find it If you are employed, please exercise restraint, as I want to focus on those who do not have a paying job. FREQUENCY Every week on Thursdays YOUR HELP I simply ask: - Games jobseekers to engage - Those supporting them to emote and comment in support - And to anyone who thinks this is a worthwhile exercise to repost so we can maximize reach

When an unemployed person sends you a connection request on LinkedIn, it's essential to remember that they are not defined by their job title. Here are some tips to help you navigate this situation: 1⃣ Accept their connection request: Don't hesitate to accept their connection request. It's a sign of respect and a way to show that you value their interest in connecting with you. 2⃣ Don't judge someone based on their job title: Remember that everyone has their own story and struggles. Don't judge someone based on their job title or current situation. Instead, focus on their skills, experience, and potential. 3️⃣ Treat others as you would like to be treated: Treat others with kindness, respect, and empathy. Remember that you never know what someone else might be going through, and a little kindness can go a long way. 4⃣ Help as you can: If you have the means, offer to help someone who is unemployed. Whether it's providing advice, introducing them to someone in your network, or simply being a listening ear, every little bit counts. ***How to Support Unemployed Individuals on LinkedIn*** *Like, share, and comment on their posts: Show your support by engaging with their posts. This can help boost their confidence and make them feel seen and heard. *Unemployment is temporary: Remember that unemployment is temporary, and everyone goes through tough times. Be patient and understanding, and know that things will get better. *Life is unpredictable: Life is full of surprises, and sometimes things don't go as planned. Be kind and compassionate, and know that everyone is doing the best they can. ***We Rise by Lifting Others*** By lifting others up, we rise together. Let's create a supportive community on LinkedIn where everyone feels valued and respected. Let's show that we care about each other's well-being and are willing to lend a helping hand. So, the next time someone sends you a connection request on LinkedIn, remember to accept it with kindness and respect. You never know what someone else might be going through, and a little kindness can go a long way.

Adding countless LinkedIn connections doesn't create a valuable network.   Neither does meeting people in work or life and never speaking with them again.   Instead, try to narrow those connections to the people that are more than just a profile or phone number. The ones you've • Enjoyed working with in the past • Shared experiences with in school or hobbies • Have recently met but felt you've connected well with   Those are the relationships you should try to stay on top of.   They can lead to business, career, and personal opportunities.   But keeping up with them is easier said than done.   It may take some categorization to narrow your network paired with making time to remain relevant.   In tomorrow's buildbetter, I talk about my system for keeping in touch with who matters.   Subscribe here to check it out ➡ https://lnkd.in/d47ukxyt   #buildbetter #networking #connection
