The Importance of knowing your Strengths and Weaknesses

When it comes to finding a job and getting hired, knowing your Strengths and Weaknesses is very important. By fully understanding and realizing the areas that get you ahead you can showcase them in order to get the job.

By having an idea of the areas which you are weak or falling behind in, will help you to work on them in order to drive improvement in line with your career prospects.

How do I identify my strengths?

Well, the things you're good at and the things you love to do are clearly your strengths. You might have technical experience and know how or you might have an innovative mindset that solves problems. In terms of identifying what you're good at you don't need to look very far.

How do I identify my weaknesses?

What are the tasks you dislike doing, that you find complicated, tough or avoid, those are most likely to be your weak areas. 

It does not mean that you are bad or hopeless at these tasks, it most likely means you have not had sufficient training and or hands-on experience doing them so you find them challenging.

Interview Mode

When it comes to the all-important job interview, you can shine from the crowd by highlighting and upselling your key strengths, skills and competencies. At the same time, you can address any weak areas so your employer knows you are already working on improving your skills and making your weakness your strength.

If you have the passion to succeed then it's important to figure out what you are good at and what makes you stand out. Only then will you realize what your weaknesses are. This will make you stronger and more confident in selling your skills, knowledge and experience.

Why is December the month that so many change their jobs?

Traditionally the month of December is when many employees decide to change their jobs. 

Below we highlight 5 reasons for employees to change their jobs during the month of December:

1. The year is Ending

The month of December symbolically and numerically heralds the end of the year and this can have a psychological impact within employees who feel that they have not achieved as much as they wanted during the year that is drawing to a close.

2. A New Year is around the Corner

The month of January signals the start of a new year and this also motivates employees to go for a fresh start with a new employer. This is particularly relevant, if the employee is not happy or satisfied with their job role. 

3. Opening up of Opportunities

With many job roles falling vacant during the month of December, this presents an opportunity for those looking at bagging their dream job, changing or switching up their career paths. Some employees might be attracted to the chance to work for an employer they have been wanting to work for and others can be tempted to switch careers in order to advance their future outlook. 

4. 12 months is enough to decide if you want to stay in a Job

Another reason the month of December is important to employees is that a time period of 12 months provides ample time for an employee to evaluate his or her effectiveness at their job, the suitability of the employer and the overall job satisfaction if they are to continue working.

5. Change is always Good

There are many employees who believe regular changes are important in order to ensure their skills, knowledge and experience are put to the best use in return for sufficient compensation and remuneration. With many job roles and vacancies opening up during the months of December and January, those seeking change would be compelled to consider other alternative job roles and career paths.
