Update your resume

Keep track of your achievements

All too often, we end our year on a negative note by criticizing ourselves for not following through on certain goals. Change this habit by making a resolution to start keeping track of your achievements. Whether you keep an Excel file, a notebook, or a blog, dedicate a space to tallying your successes as they occur so you can look back on the year positively.

Pick up a new skill

Whether you need a resume builder for your job search or would like to move up the ladder with your current employer, gaining a new skill can only help. Try setting a resolution like “take a class in X” or “attend a webinar on Y” to hold yourself accountable for your own career development.

Stay up-to-date with industry trends

Whether you work within healthcare or accounting, there’s a wealth of information out there to keep you up-to-date on your industry. Try making a resolution to “read one blog per week” or “subscribe to an industry publication” to help you (and your employer) stay on track of industry trends.

Strive for a better work-life balance

In today’s technology-driven world, finding a positive work-life balance is easier said than done. Nevertheless, it’s important to living a happy, rewarding life. To maintain a healthy work-balance, try blocking out more time for you, setting boundaries when checking after-hour emails, and talking to your employer about incorporating more flexibility into your work schedule.

Improve your personal brand

Social networking sites like LinkedIn and Facebook have changed the way we connect after networking events, meetings, and interviews. As a result, evaluating and improving the way your brand is portrayed on these sites should be one of your top career resolutions of this year.
