Job Search Self-Efficacy (JSSE) is key to helping clients improve their job search outcomes while maintaining good mental health and wellbeing. The more they believe in their abilities and themselves, the more likely that they will be successful — and you play a pivotal role in boosting that confidence. 🙌 📝 Here’s how you can help your clients increase JSSE: 1️⃣ Plan with purpose: Encourage routines that balance job searching with self-care. 2️⃣ Build skills: Tailor skill-building to their career stage — from resumes to resilience. 3️⃣ Foster support: Encourage clients to engage with a coach, advocate, or fellow job seekers for added support. 4️⃣ Leverage Skills: Build skills to boost confidence: early careers focus on basics, mid-careers focus on resilience 5️⃣ Explore tools: Guide clients to create a routine, build skills, seek support, and celebrate wins!
