Summer is coming to an end, and for many, September marks the restart of their job search. If you put your search on pause for the summer, here are some tips on how to dive back in:

Refresh your resume and LinkedIn. Before applying, make sure your resume and LinkedIn reflect your most recent experience and accomplishments as well as align with the skills and attributes of the job description.

Be intentional with your applications. Focus on roles that complement your strengths and career goals rather than applying to any and everything.

Reconnect with your network. Reach out to former colleagues, mentors, or professors. Let them know you're exploring new opportunities and ask what they're seeing in the market.

Be ready to move quickly. Keep an eye on new postings, respond to recruiters, and prepare for interviews so you’re ready when the right opportunity comes along.
