RESOLUTION NUMBER

1: Have a plan

Page 3: Career Advice: 4 Easy Ways to Fast Track Your Career in 2015

If you haven’t got one already, then 2015 should be the year to get your long

terms goals (and how you plan on getting there) down on paper.

Things to think about:

1. Clarify your career objectives

(what are you good at and what do

you enjoy?)

1. Do you need to gain any additional

training or qualifications to help move

your career in the right direction?

1. What are the potential barriers to you

achieving your goals?

RESOLUTION NUMBER 2:

Get Networking

Page 5: Career Advice: 4 Easy Ways to Fast Track Your Career in 2015

It’s not what you know, but who you know.

The more people who know and like you at work, the better. People

buy, hire and want to work with people they like, know and trust.

Top tip: Set yourself the goal of attending at least 1 networking event

per month – even building up you networking activity on LinkedIn can

help.

RESOLUTION NUMBER 3:

Stand out at work

Page 7: Career Advice: 4 Easy Ways to Fast Track Your Career in 2015

You might be the hardest working person on the team, but if you aren’t

at the front of people’s minds - then it’s likely you may get passed up

for additional responsibilities, new projects and even a promotion.

Here are some top tips for how to stand out at work:

• Develop and expand on your specialist skills. Is there any additional training

or qualifications that you could put yourself forward for?

• Aim to be efficient in the tasks and jobs that will help your manager most.

• Be the person that says ‘yes’ – not ‘no’.

RESOLUTION NUMBER 4:

Keep a record of your

achievement

Page 9: Career Advice: 4 Easy Ways to Fast Track Your Career in 2015

Keeping a record of your accomplishments is key to helping you stand out at

future performance reviews and job interviews.

To get your record of achievement started ask yourself these questions:

1. What challenges have you personally helped to resolve over the past 12 months?

2. What things did you have to overcome to resolve it?

3. What were the results you helped to achieve?
