Welcome to the GET THE JOB YOU WANT program. Do you remember the Number One Principle of any job search?

If you don’t, go back and watch the Number One Principle video below.

Now you understand why the first step towards your goal is to assess your skills according to what the job market is demanding.

Understanding the market needs is the first step to build a powerful resume and sell yourself like a boss! 

Click the image below to download your GTJ ULTIMATE CONTROL SHEET in Excel.

Use the SKILL ASSESSMENT TOOL spreadsheet to research a minimum of 15 job offers for each position you would like to work as and take notes of the description and all the skills required for each role.

When looking at the description, focus on the verbs, the actions that describe what you will be doing.

After that you will evaluate how strong you are at each one of the skills, marking at the columns (very weak, weak, strong, very strong). 

Doing this exercise will help you:

•    understand the market needs.
•    identify your strengths and weaknesses according to the desired market.
•    identify potential hiring companies.
•    identify key words that you will use on your profile and CV.

Watch the GTJ Skills Assesment video below for detailed guidance and some tips on how to make the most of your research. 

The result of your research should be a clear understanding of the possible roles you could apply for, some ideas of companies and industries, clarity about the differences between the names of the roles and, most of all, a check-list made of the requirements and elements of the job description with the main keywords you will use to build your CV.
