Job Search Affirmation Prayer by Jewel Diamond Taylor

 
 

 

God, our Father, I turn to You seeking Your divine help and guidance as I look for suitable employment.   I am excited about using the gifts and talents You have given me.  I'm ready for the opportunity to use them with gainful employment.  I pray for a clear mind to be specific with my career goals and expectations (position, people, environment, location, compensation and benefits).  Thank You for the resources to meet my daily expenses at home as well as the expenses incurred with job seeking.  I pray for the confidence to grow out of my comfort zone with future interviews and prospects. 

I believe my divine right place of employment is seeking me.  I give thanks in advance for the right connections being revealed.    

My opportunities and blessings are endless and sometimes they may come to me in unexpected ways.  Open my eyes.  Open my mind.  Open my ears.   Right action begins with me and I am empowered by you God to begin moving and to keep moving towards greater success.  I am guided today to the place where I am needed, valued and compensated well for my time and skills. 

All that the Father hath for me is mine and I take possession of what belongs to me with a swiftness, gratitude and confidence.  My career is for the glory of God to benefit my family and those I serve.  

I believe as I speak these words, that You, Father God, go before me preparing a way.  I have no fear for You are with me - my peace, my protection and my provision.  Thank You for releasing the courage, optimism, professionalism and resources I need to secure my divine  right employment.

 

  Thank You for placing heavenly and earthly angels in my life to guide me. 

 

I believe what You have done for others, You can do for me.  Grant me favor so that I may return home today with praise and thanksgiving for your grace and mercy.  I will share Your goodness with others so they may know of Your power and glory.                      

I feel better, encouraged and ready now to receive my career and financial breakthrough.  Thank You Lord for being the center of my JOY and the source of my great new JOB! Amen

5 Common Resume Mistakes by Nevin Barich 

Mistake #1: Typos
Even one spelling or grammatical error can send your résumé to the recycle bin. Don't rely solely on your computer to check spelling: it won't catch context errors. Take the time to proofread your résumé. Try reading it three times: once for accuracy, once for deleted or extra words, and once for spelling errors. Attempt to read it backwards, which allows you to check spacing errors and misspelled words without getting sidetracked by context. It is also helpful to have several friends edit your work.

Mistake #2: Too Much Information
Don't list extraneous information, such as hobbies and interests, unless they are relevant to the position for which you are applying. Employers do not need to know your age, weight, height, marital status or religious affiliation. It is unwise to give an employer any reasons to develop even the slightest prejudice or misconception about you.

Mistake #3: Too Self-Focused
Job seekers often focus résumés on personal goals. Instead, consider describing what you can do for the company. Spend time researching the company and the job description before you submit your résumé. Demonstrate how you can solve their problems by saving time or money, increasing efficiency or improving productivity. How can you help your employer meet his or her goals? This is your opportunity to sell yourself.

Mistake #4: Too Duty-Oriented
Concentrate on your achievements instead of focusing on your daily functions and responsibilities. Avoid the common laundry list of job duties. While it is important to explain what you did at your previous job, an employer is more interested in your results and accomplishments. It is easier to determine whether you are a good match for the position if you specify what you have achieved in your past positions.

Mistake #5: Too Flashy Or Fancy
Be considerate to your readers. Avoid using several different fonts on your résumé and do not type in all capital letters. This can make your résumé hard to read. Steer clear of big words or jargon, which can be confusing rather than impressive. Your résumé should be clear and to the point. Business letters, in general, should be conservative, so avoid using graphics or brightly colored paper. As a rule of thumb, don't use a font size smaller than 11-point. If a résumé is difficult to read, it may be overlooked.
