Tips on finding a Job!

 

Below are tips to help you with any job search.

 

Network: Most people find jobs through word-of-mouth. Talk to the people you know, including relatives, friends, professors, and former co-workers.  Let them know that you are looking for work; ask their advice; seek out introductions to people in the field that interests you.

 

Customize: Create a custom version of your resume for each job or industry that interests you. Your resume is usually an employers first contact with you. Make sure it highlights your skills that relate to the job that employer is seeking to fill.

 

Know yourself: Identify your skills. Work on communicating them effectively. You need to be able to lay out your skills, and explain how they relate to the job you're seeking. 

 

Organize and prioritize: Make a list to help keep track of your job search efforts. Preparing a list also helps you to organize your priorities and keeps you focused on your goal -- finding your perfect job.

 

Do your homework: Read the newspaper and trade journals to remain current on developments in your field of interest. Knowing the latest trends and mergers will help set you apart from other candidates in an interview. 

 

Practice, practice, practice: Preparation is the key to a successful interview. Know your skills and be ready to illustrate how they relate to the job in question. Practice with a friend to get comfortable with your responses and to formulate strong answers to questions you might not anticipate. Remember you are selling yourself so practice being a great salesperson.

 

Follow up: Follow up on all leads as soon as possible. If you don't, your competition may. Try and fallow up at least once to twice a week. You want to stay fresh in their mind and at the same time show how much you want the job. And, following an interview, always send a thank-you note the same day.

 

Keep your head up: Looking for a job can feel like a job in itself.  Don't let it get you down. With patience and hard work, you will find the right job.

 

Last but not least: Dress the part! Always dress professional. Now, you may not want to wear a 3 piece suit when applying for a position as a forklift operator but at the same time never apply or ask for an application wearing shorts, T-shirts,  flip-flops...and so on. Be well groomed, wear nice clean cloths and always remember that you only have one opportunity to make a first impression.
