#YourCareer :Stay the Course-Daily Actions to Advance Your Career. As you Show Up each Day, here are Some to Consider.
My dad and I used to talk about my work. We would discuss the challenges and successes of managing employees. I would ask for his advice and input on decisions. Often times, at the end of our talks, he would ask me, “Are they still giving you a paycheck?”, to which I would reply, “Yes.” He would then passionately say, “Then keep going back!” 😊
What he really meant by that was, keep putting in the work! Nothing comes easily, and hard work is just a part of it! Don’t expect a job to be easy. And the higher you move within the ranks, the more challenging it will become.
As you show up each day, there are actions you can that can aid in advancing your career. Here are some to consider:
Demonstrate Your Skills And Abilities
As an executive, you are likely involved in many different meetings at your job. If there’s a certain position you are striving to earn, then demonstrate your skills and abilities to handle the position even when you don’t have the position yet. This can include speaking up in meetings to show your competence and become recognized. Acting like you’re in the role you want can eventually lead to it becoming a reality.

Be A Leader
Your executive profile may indicate leadership abilities, but you have to show those abilities on a daily basis. Be a mentor or coach for other employees in your organization. The more you help others, the more rewards and recognition will come your way. And you’ll likely feel more satisfaction since the entire company will benefit from your efforts.
Continue Your Education
The best resume writing service always suggests continuing your education or seeking professional development. Not only will these look great on a resume if you’re looking for a new job, but your current employer will also take notice. Taking different courses demonstrates your commitment and willingness to learn and take on new roles. If you’ve taken numerous courses and still aren’t getting where you want to be with your career, then it may be time to work on new resumes and cover letters for the position you want to apply for within a different company.
Never Only Do The Minimum
Doing only the minimum amount of work to get by every day won’t help advance your career. Going above and beyond the job description is one of the best ways to get noticed. Just be careful to not overstep boundaries with the wrong people. It never hurts to offer assistance or volunteer to take over a project though.
Professional Resume Services is known as the best resume writing service, but we believe we are more than that. We enjoy helping people find new jobs, as well as provide helpful tips on advancing their career. Whether you need assistance writing resumes and cover letters, or if you’re stuck in a current position and striving for a promotion, contact us to see how we can help you out.
