The 5 Tops!
This Week - 5 Top Strategies to Land a Job in the Current Tight Market
1. Diversify Your Job Search.
Use all 5 methods to find a job, not just searching online employment sites.
2. Be a Matcher Not a Seller
Instead of trying to sell hiring managers on what you think is important, read the job spec carefully to find out what they’re looking for and match yourself to that.
3. Create 100 Different Resumes
A single, generalized resume will usually end up in the trash. Instead create a customized resume for every job you apply for.
4. Pursue Relationships, Not Jobs
Instead of calling contacts and asking for a job, (something you can get away with once or twice), use GetHired style New Networking to build relationships that result in job leads.
5. Practice Perseverance
Learn the 5 most powerful techniques to stay positive and motivated, no matter how many disappointments and frustrations you face.
Next Steps
This list is just a start. You’ll learn more by reading our books or, for a more personal approach to your search, contact us to schedule a 1:1 session with GetHired’s founder and resident job readiness expert, David Schmier.
