Week 1

Building your Structure for the Job Search Period

Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Week 6 Week 7 Week 8


Week 1 | Day 1
Plan your applications and week: What’s your goal?

Objective for the day: Create an application plan for this week (and partly next week)

Task 1: Choose 6-8 job platforms to search for suitable positions. To measure your progress for the day and
improve your search for the future, track your search:
● Which platform are you searching on?
● Which search terms did you enter?
● How many jobs are there in total for each search term?
● How many jobs did you find? Save the corresponding links.

Task 2: Which of the platforms did you like best? Create a profile or a job alert for these platforms.

Task 3: Do you also have an eye on companies that you would like to work for? Create a job alert on their website
so that you don't miss any new positions.

Quality check weekly schedule: Your plan should include the following components:
● What are your overarching goals (professional, application, etc.)?
● What are your sub-goals and how do you define success?
● Total number of applications/week + planned applications/day
● Professional learning objectives at the end of the week + divided into learning objectives/day

Week 1 | Day 2
Focus on your weekly goal: Increasing Efficiency

Daily goal: Identify Time-Consuming Problems & Develop an efficient Time-Keeping Strategy

Input: Procrastination, time management & self-management


- 6 Time Management Tips in under 60 seconds (1 Minute)
- Longer Version: How I manage my time (11 Minutes)
- Beginner's Guide to the Eisenhower Matrix (7 Minutes)

Task: What can you do to improve your time management?


● Choose different tips from the videos and think about how you can integrate these into your everyday life.
● Change takes time! You don't have to be perfect straight away and you can't expect to be 100% productive
and efficient from 0 to 100. So give yourself time and test the tips for at least 2 weeks. Then switch and try out
other methods if the first measures don't suit you and don't lead to efficient time management.

Possible partner work & brainstorming:


● How do you currently manage your time?
● What can you do to improve your time management?
● Which methods would you like to implement directly in the next few weeks?
● Do you know any other tools or methods for structuring your time in a meaningful way?

Quality check for the daily goal:


● You have decided on 2-3 methods and thought about how you can use them every day
● You have thought about how to measure your success

Week 1 | Day 3
Focus on your weekly goal: Send out Applications

Daily goal: Send 2 final applications and write at least 3 additional draft applications

Task 1: Write and send 2 final applications


● For your first applications, choose job advertisements that you find interesting but are not your top 3.
● Reason: Your applications will get better over time if you keep adapting them to the company. This will give
you more practice in writing applications, which will increase the quality of your applications.
● Read the job advertisement or the company's careers page carefully. What documents are required for the
application?

Task 2: Write at least 3 draft applications

Choose 3 more job advertisements and write your application documents. If you don't finish them completely and
want to check them again tomorrow, that's fine too.

Quality check your applications:


● Grammar check?
● Spelling check?
● Showed interest in the company and position?
● Gave examples of why you are suitable for the role?
● Feel free to use our detailed checklist for CV & cover letter

Week 1 | Day 4
Focus on tech skills

Daily Goal: Do your own research - What kind of skills or certificates are in demand in your field of work currently?

Is there a way to do a free course/youtube tutorial in this area or remote?

● Work 1 hr on the field in demand and integrate into your daily schedule (15min. per day each)
● Add the skill to your LinkedIn Profile and CV

W0 W1 W2 W3 W4 W5 W6 W7 W8

Reflect upon your week

Daily goal: Reflect on your week and set effective goals for next week

● Task 1: Reflect on the week using the Reflection Report and send it to your job coach.

● Task 2: Have you reached your application target for this week? If not, send your application again today.

● Task 3: Finish your portfolio work plan so that you can get started on new topics next week.
