1. Know what you want in a new job.

Make sure you're moving toward a better job and not just running away from one you don't like. What are your values and how do they align with a new company's culture? What will make this new job better than the old one?

2. Create a professional resume.

Your resume acts as your introduction to a company. It makes your first impression for you. Find books with resume samples to guide you or hire a professional resume writer who is trained, experienced and certified in this field. Make sure your resume reflects your work achievements. Don't forget to send cover letters and interview thank you letters to show you understand business etiquette.

3. Evaluate your network of contacts.

The job search process is a lot like dating - prospects usually don't come knocking on your door! You have to get out and meet people. More people get new jobs through networking than any other activity - up to 80% according to several surveys. Look at the business relationships you already have and what you do to cultivate them. What professional, civic and social groups do you belong to? Where do the people hang out that can introduce you to the right opportunities.

4. Practice your interviewing skills.

Most hiring authorities use "behavioral or situational" interviewing methods. Prepare for interviews with storytelling techniques. Write down examples from your work experience of specific challenges or situation, the actions you took to resolve those challenges, and the positive results of outcomes of your actions. Be ready to discuss these stories in any interview to demonstrate the value you have to offer an employer.
