11. Create your next
job.
How do you inspire a company to create a new job
just for you? Forget about your credentials, your history and your
past jobs. They are irrelevant. If you focus on them when you're
searching for a new job, you'll shoehorn yourself into the same
dead-end job you just left.
Decide where you want to work. Study your target
company. Explore the problems and challenges it is facing, and
figure out how you can help the company tackle them profitably.
Apply your skills and abilities in new ways to re-define your
qualifications. Think in terms of what the company doesn't have
but needs: that's your new job. That's the business plan you need
to present.
The job you want to create is essentially a new
business. But, don't expect your target company to figure out
whether this "new business" is justified. You must be
ready to explain it to them. Show how you'll deliver profit in new
ways. That's what'll make the company create a new job just for
you.
