Employment Search

Employment Search

You need to be consistent in your employment search. This simply means keeping focused on what you want to achieve. Once you know what you want the outcome is almost certain, but there are certain things you must do.

Let me remind you of the 7 main stages of your job search:

1 - What Have You Got to Offer?

You've probably got a piece of expert knowledge or bit of experience that others haven't got and it can make all the diference. If you take time to sort out your USP (unique selling proposition) you race ahead of the competition. 2 - Talking About Yourself

When you have done something that you're proud of in your job or career then it ain't bragging; just tell it like it is. Talking about yourself isn't easy but a little practice will get you there.

3 - Who do You Know?

You might be surprised to find that someone you know, knows someone else that needs you. So get talking! Everyone knows someone who could be a vital link in your network.

4 - Constructing Your CV or Resume

Take advice from someone you trust. Don't let your CV knock you out of the running. Keep to what is relevant and don't try to include everything you have ever done.

5 - Applying by Letter

Keep it simple, the best letter is one page with a beginning, a middle and an end. Include examples of how you match up; best done with 4 or 5 bullet points from the original advert.

6 - Understand the Market Place.

Don't just be a busy fool - use your time according to the payback you can expect. For example adverts only account for 25% of all successful job moves; therefore only allow 25% of your time on adverts.

7 - Beating the Interview Nerves

Certain types of questions will always crop up. Get answers to these interview questions prepared.
