The world of work is constantly changing, and that since the 90 years where the deletions of posts in the factories became known.
The employees did not really have skills that could be useful for another job.
Then the job for life has disappeared so it has become essential to acquire new skills, but also to regularly update those that we already have.

This is also called "employability" and here's how to become more and more proficient at work in 3 steps.

Go further than his initial training:

To become more and more competent at work is above all to leave the shackles of his studies.
When one reaches several decades of experience, it can be difficult to highlight one's studies or initial training.
That's why it is important to regularly train, ideally all 1 or 2 years.

Do not hesitate to negotiate training courses with your supervisor or with your Pôle emploi advisor if you are looking for a job.
Also think about your DIF (Individual right to an education) who can help you train in a sector that you really like.
Note that your employer has the right to refuse the first application, but not the second.

If your budget and schedule allow, you can also start an MBA.
These high-end courses are usually career accelerators that build a real network.
A skills assessment can be a good thing to identify what you know and can't do.

Learn to develop your skills:

The job market is constantly evolving, and we must constantly stay up to date and even exceed our expectations.
Then you need to know why your skills will be beneficial and profitable for the organization in which you work or for which you want to work.
If the position you are aiming for requires specific skills, do not hesitate to identify and develop them in order to put the chances on your side to get the job.
Keep in mind that today's businesses want adaptability.

Create a network to develop your skills:

Surprising as it may seem, you also need to develop your networking skills.
By being present on social networks, you will be able to communicate and get in touch with people working in a sector of activity identical to yours.
Look after your professional network, go to the events organized by the companies that interest you and discuss with key interlocutors without forgetting to slip some business cards.

In short, talk about yourself.
