3. Spruce up your skills
Making sure your skills are up to scratch and ready to display is vital for your upcoming job search. If you have spent some time out of work or in a role where your skills haven’t been actively used it may be time to spruce them up.
Free courses are available through a new online platform hosted on the gov.uk website, called The Skills Toolkit. The new platform gives people access to free, high-quality digital and numeracy courses to help build up their skills, progress in work and boost their job prospects.
4. Grow your network on LinkedIn
LinkedIn is one of the world’s biggest professional networking platforms. Making the most can go a long way in helping you find your next role.
Building your network on LinkedIn will help narrow your search for a new job – if you’re considering a career change, connecting with professionals in the industry can give you valuable insights into what a career in that field will look like.
