A Change is as Good as a Holiday

A Change is as Good as a Holiday

..as the old saying goes…but one that rings true with border restrictions and overseas dream holiday destinations on pause. I know I’ve been dreaming of jet setting across the world but due to the current lockdown in a few Australian states, that dream is a dream for now, but what other changes in our lives are as good as holiday? Why is now a good time to focus on making them?

Well with so much spare time on our hands, now is a great time to start refreshing your CV, plan your next career move and start engaging with recruiters. Although some of us are in a lockdown and some job seekers might feel hesitant about making the move, this lockdown is different to 2020. Law firms are still hiring, recruitment processes continue and the demand for talent is at an all time high.

Firms have already set up to work from home, they have processes in place and can onboard remotely! The only change with Covid-19 in 2021 is face to face interviews. The legal recruitment market has continued to hire as some expand their practice groups and most record their best financial performances year to date. A secure industry to join, whether in a lockdown or not!

With so many similarities in our lives right now and being so bound to our homes, by having to work from home and staying home, looking for a new role might just be the change you are looking for, something new to sink your teeth into and refocus with a new motivation. 

Finding a job is a job within itself and can be challenging, with work commitments and timings, so take advantage of the current climate and start looking for that new role. Let’s face it, we all have more time available and virtual interviews are much easier and more discreet to organise.
