Have you noticed some things going on at work that make you thing you job could be in danger ? Maybe your employer lost a couple of big clients or earnings have been shrinking. Perhaps some of your coworkers have already been laid off.Of course you are concerned that you'll be next-who wouldn't be worried ? Rather than sitting around fretting, you should instead start planning for the future. While it may feel better to live in the moment (after all you are still employed) and hope for the best, there are things you can do before you lose your job that can actually help you move forward more quickly.
Get Your Resume Ready : Rather than write or update your resume when you have to start a job search, prepare one in advance. Hopefully you've kept your resume up-to-date by adding relevant items as they happened or at least kept a running list of them. That is much easier than trying to remember your accomplishments and the skills you've acquired months or even years earlier. If you didn't -you set out to find a new job as quickly as you can. It will be even more of a challenge to try to recall information while you're in that state of mind.
