Passive Job Seeker Icon: A person at a desk, looking bored, with a thought bubble containing a single job listing. Actions: Relies on job boards or company websites. Applies to jobs when they appear. Rarely networks or reaches out directly. May update their resume occasionally. Mindset: "I'll apply when something interesting comes along." Visual: This person might be passively waiting for a job, possibly slumped in a chair. Proactive Job Seeker Icon: A person reaching out to contacts, with a speech bubble containing a question about opportunities. Actions: Networks and reaches out to professionals. Researches companies of interest. Seeks informational interviews. Tailors their resume and cover letter for each application. Mindset: "I'm going to create my own opportunities." Visual: This person might be actively engaging with others, perhaps at a networking event or on a call. Side-by-Side Cartoon/Icon Style To create a side-by-side comparison: Layout: Divide the visual in two, one for each job seeker. Characters: Create cartoon-style characters, with different postures and expressions to emphasize their approaches. Icons/Symbols: Use icons to represent their actions (e.g., a computer for job boards for the passive seeker, a handshake for networking for the proactive seeker). Speech Bubbles: Include quotes in speech bubbles to show their differing mindsets. Overall Tone: Make the proactive job seeker look energetic and engaged, while the passive job seeker looks passive.
