Maximising your free time at work (Part 2)

Work towards your goals.

You may already be heading along your desired career path or you may be way off it. Either way, you can use you free time to help yourself along the way.

If you are in a situation at work that you are happy with, ie, you like the company you are working for and are in a job you like, then you should do what you can to be the best you can be.

This may involve asking people around you for more work to do, or going off and taking the initiative. Or you could take the time to improve your own skills and knowledge.

Whatever you do, you will show those around you that you are dedicated to your job.

If you are not in your ideal job, then you can use the time to do what it takes to get your ideal job:

Find out what the requirements are.

Match these to your own skills.

Identify areas that need addressed.

Work on them!

If you find yourself in the position of not being in a job you like within a company you don't want to work for, then all you can do is look for a better job!

I found myself in many temp jobs that left me with nothing to do and I used some of the time to look for other work. Generally temp employers are fine with you applying for other jobs if you having nothing else to do.

But, if you work in a permanent position, you may want to be a bit more discrete!

Some things you can do:

Surf the Internet! Find jobs, training courses, discussion forums, etc.

Work on your CV - update it.

Print / photocopy your CV.

Type up covering letters.

Email your CV to recruitment agencies.

Check out industry news.

Basically, do what you can to keep up to date with your job search!
