| Find or Be Found: Putting Yourself Out There in Your Job Search
Looking for a new job? The reality is, you’re not just searching—you’re also being searched for. Employers and recruiters are constantly looking for the right candidates, which means one of the most effective job search strategies is making sure you can be easily found. So, how do you do that? Here’s how to take an active approach in your job search and position yourself for the opportunities God has in store.
1. Be Proactive: Don’t Just Wait for Opportunities
Job hunting isn’t just about submitting applications and waiting for responses. It’s about taking initiative. Reach out to people in your industry, introduce yourself, and express your interest in potential opportunities. A simple message on LinkedIn, an email to a hiring manager, or even a friendly chat at a networking event can open doors you never expected.
Proverbs 16:3 says, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.” Taking steps forward in faith—whether that’s making a call, attending an event, or sending a message—allows God to guide your path.
2. Network with Purpose
You’ve likely heard the phrase, “It’s not just what you know, but who you know.” While your skills and experience matter, networking can be the bridge that connects you to your next opportunity.
- Join industry groups and Christian professional networks.
- Attend events, whether in-person or virtual.
- Follow and engage with potential employers on LinkedIn.
- Ask your connections if they know of any opportunities that might be a fit for you.
Many jobs aren’t even advertised—they’re filled through word of mouth. By building relationships and staying engaged, you increase your chances of hearing about the right opportunity at the right time.
3. Polish Your Online Presence
Before an employer calls you for an interview, they’re likely looking you up online. Is your digital footprint working for or against you? - LinkedIn & Social Media: Update your LinkedIn profile with a professional photo, a strong summary, and relevant skills. Be mindful of what you post on other platforms too—employers may check your Facebook, Instagram, or X (Twitter).
- Job Boards: Create visible profiles on job sites like Christian Jobs Australia ensuring your resume is updated and searchable.
- Personal Branding: If you’re in a creative or professional field, consider building a simple portfolio or website showcasing your work.
Colossians 3:23 reminds us, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” Presenting yourself well online is an extension of doing everything with excellence.
4. Keep Your Resume & Applications Sharp
Your resume should be more than just a document—it’s a snapshot of your skills, experience, and personality. Tailor it to each job you apply for, highlighting the most relevant experience. If you haven’t updated your resume in a while, now’s the time to refresh it with your most recent achievements.
5. Step Out in Faith & Take Action
Sometimes, the biggest obstacle in a job search is hesitation. Fear of rejection, uncertainty about where to start, or simply feeling overwhelmed can keep you stuck. But as 2 Timothy 1:7 says, “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”
Taking action—whether that’s applying for a job, reaching out to a connection, or improving your LinkedIn profile—is a step of faith. Trust that God is guiding you, and as you do your part, He will open the right doors.
The job search process can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone. Be proactive, network intentionally, and make sure your online presence represents you well. When you put yourself out there, you create more opportunities not just to find the right job—but to be found by the right employer.
