Finding a job ought to be a more holistic and enriching experience. There is a lot more to it than just a job title. At YiddishJobs, we believe in nurturing and guiding a person.
And we have just the right word; "macher."
At YiddishJobs, we go beyond the ordinary and assist you in achieving your career goals. We proudly assist you in achieving your career goals. We proudly assist you in guiding you to becoming a macher, which we define as a person with many strings to their bow, and who is recognized for their achievements.
The word macher comes from Yiddish. It means ‘maker’ or ‘doer’ - somebody who is proactive, not just a passive participant.
In everyday parlance, a macher is referred to as an ‘important person.’ this is not for their name or title, but because they enable and facilitate for the Z and are able to get things done. this is usually for the right person.
At times, they are described as ‘big shots’ or the one ‘who knows everyone’ but the reality is, a macher is hardworking and resourceful.
Why do we use macher at YiddishJobs?
At YiddishJobs, we don’t simply use the word macher for its sake. It is because it is not just a tag, but a perspective and a way of thinking.
A macher does not need to wait for luck or chance to come their way. A macher, for example, understands the need to network, and learn skills to build opportunities, which is exactly the type of energy we want our users to encompass.
In some Jewish cultures, a macher is the individual who is best situated to determine who to call, where to go, and how to get things done. They possess that trust because they tend to relevant and caring. We strive to have that same community spirit for our platform.
A macher is a person who is trusted to get the job done, therefore, there is expectation that they will deliver, and so they have a reputation which is implies that they have a good brand to their name. Builders of every job this is what they want to build for themselves.
Our design of the platform of YiddishJobs goes further than job listings since the agenda is to build and promote a user’s name, to network, and to interact with a user’s potential employers.
Let me show you:
Your resume goes further than just a piece of document, your profile permits you to narrate what you have done as well as your competencies. Talk about projects that you have completed, competencies and skills that you have mastered, and mention a few of the times that you have helped others achieve their goals.
Machers build connections on a network instead of looking for a job. With YiddishJobs, you can network with other users, participate in discussions, as well as locate people who can mentor you, assist you, or even offer you a job.
Rather than providing a simple skill set, showcase your work. Proof of action is very important, and the employers will always appreciate the effort. There is always a story, of how you troubleshoot an issue, initiated something, or when you were in a leadership role and drove results.
Your effort and skill set are the two major attributes that we work with in your job search. If you are an active person, we certainly seek your profile among employers who are looking for that.
The macher mindset approach is what sets YiddishJobs apart from other job portals. This is why:
You become unique
The generic term most of job portals would use is a “candidate” or an “applicant.” We use the term “macher” and that in itself makes the person sound adept and self-assured.
It is very easy and simple when you think of yourself as a macher because you can be in the driver’s seat, capture chance, and create outcomes. That attitude can help a lot in how the interviews or the networking sessions would go.
It has a special meaning in a culture
People who understand Yiddish or the Jewish culture can warmly appreciate the term “macher.” It evokes a reasonable sense of trust as well as closeness.
It prioritizes achievement
People generally know a macher for more tangible outputs as opposed to the more verbal receipts. This, in part, is the reason why we have focused our platform towards helping you attain real achievements, as opposed to lists of skills.
The larger perspective
It is our belief at YiddishJobs that a job goes beyond the monetary reward. It presents the employee an avenue to grow, contribute, and impact.
As you understand, when you become a macher, you not only get a job, but rather create opportunities for yourself and a lot of other people. You are constructing a brand, sharpening your competencies, and becoming that go to person for many.
The term macher is more than an ordinary word. It reflects a perspective on one’s career and life.
It highlights being proactive, engaged, and welcoming even the most daunting challenges. It reminds being dependable on others.
As always, we on YiddishJobs, provide you with the contacts, tools, and unmatched support to turn yourself into that person.
So, rather than looking for a job, we encourage you to be a macher and provide solutions.
