Post-Grad Job Search Action Plan Template

#1: Job Search Plan: Create a schedule & goals

Each day I will go over e-mails and see if anyone has responded. I will spend my mornings looking up and applying to jobs, and 2-3 hours after lunch to work on my person site, I hope to have at least two interviews a week and two cold outreach meetings. I will keep an eye out for code related meetups in order to meet more people. While working on my I would like two get a job within the next two months, if I get any offers by then I will accept it if I get no more.

#2: Longterm Career Plan: What are your career goals?

Withing the next 5 years I hope to be in super proficient in ruby and JS, if I am able to get into a Video Game company I will take it. It's something I've always wanted to do. In the next ten years I hope to be in the position of a consultant/working for myself, where I have a decent network and have people coming to me with short jobs they need done. I met someone at a meetup in this position and he seemed really happy with his situation and that's where I'd like to be.

Option #2: Open Source Project

Option #3: Community Involvement

I plan on attending as many meetups as I can every month. I always enjoy them and meeting new people. Working at home I want to help out with the OBS open source github. I've used it a couple times and now that I feel confident about giving back to the ocmmunity I want to try and work on that.
