Apply to hundreds of job that are a bit above your league. 199 reject you. But maybe 1/200 of them want you. Maybe they like your personality, or you're at the right place at the right time.
This is the same method used by telemarketers. They do not need every call to bring in money, just 1 out of 100 will make sufficient income. The key to this method is volume -- do not stop at 100 or 200 and wait for 1 reply. 100 to 200 résumés every week is the minimum you should send out.Minervx_2 wrote:
Don't stay at a job for more than 2 years. Unless it's a career-job (i.e. good pay, something you enjoy, etc). Many of the people who get promoted get promoted within 2 years.
