CHICAGO, IL, July 26, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Chasing career opportunities and promotions can be incredibly stressful and frustrating. Due to the competitive nature of promotions in the corporate world, not being recognized as a potential candidate can cause many professionals to question their abilities and can lead to even the most confident person to fall victim to a little self-doubt. For young workers and graduates, the idea of promotions may seem like a long way off, however it's just as important for them to seek out job opportunities that offer progression at the beginning of their business journey. By having a job that offers opportunities early on in life it will make a lasting impact on the business world and help them to achieve their goals further down the line. With this in mind, Zengo and Co, a leading provider of innovative event marketing services have offered their advice on how an individual can boost their chances of promotion and seek out more exciting opportunities for development.

Meet the Right People
Those looking to be promoted within a certain field should make an effort to meet with and communicate with the right people so that they can learn of the job demands and expand their specialist knowledge.
Distance Yourself from the Wrong People
Spending time with complainers, whiners and just generally negative people is likely to infect a person's own mental state and cause them to wallow, rather than go out and make positive changes.
Have the Right Attitude
Being good at a job doesn't counteract a poor attitude. Getting on with others and going the extra mile will build a good reputation and encourage endorsements for any potential promotions.
Communicate
If an individual wants to be considered for a promotion they need to communicate this effectively with their manager and provide evidence that they are up to the job. Providing brief weekly updates on progress and achievements can be highly effective.
Participate
Don't sit on the side-lines, no matter how shy you may feel in certain situations. Unless a person speaks up then a manager will assume they have nothing of value to contribute.
Don't Fixate on Getting Promoted
Obsessing about being promoted often means that the quality of a person's work suffers, as they are not giving their daily tasks their full attention. Make sure your productivity remains high if you want to be considered for upcoming opportunities.
