5) Keeping It Going
You have started your job search process and are now making efforts to maintain the momentum of your campaign. You are applying for jobs, networking with contacts and attending interviews, feeling serious now about returning to work.
However, you soon recognise that it can be disheartening and that your confidence can waver after the initial enthusiasm. You must learn not to lose heart, as a lack of early success can lead to a loss of motivation; but persistence, patience and perseverance will always pay off with the result you want.
Now, it's all up to you and your own sense of determination, but with some expert help you may find that some things become much easier. With some guidance you can achieve the return to work that you desire, and the routes back into work can be made easier if you have the right helpful information.

Beat Your Fear Of Going Back To Work
After any length of time away from work you inevitably lose some of your normal confidence and the thought of returning to work can be quite scary. You may fear that your skills have become dated or that you will no longer fit in with your co-workers from before. As an expert career coach, I recognize many of the emotional obstacles you will face because I too have been through this difficult transition in my own working life. This is the main reason why I created this special Returning To Work Pack which is sure to help you overcome your concerns and help you make the journey back into employment more smoothly. I suggest you read the page about Outplacement to help you understand the possibilities.When it all goes right and you do find a job, then starting a new job is also the time when you need to be extra careful not to tread on too many toes, use your personal marketing skills to make sure you fit in because you cannot rely on the goodwill of people who are already established in the organization although you will be told about the elusive 'honeymoon' period.
