Job Search Tips 2011

Best Job Search Tips 2011
Here are Bizzable’s Job Search Tips for 2011.

1. Set goals and map out your day.

How many emails? How many phone calls? How much time networking online? Face to Face?

2. Research the companies that you want to work for, don’t be afraid to propose a position that can help them.

It’s a gutsy move but a well thought out, attainable and lucrative business plan will intrigue an prospective employer.

3. Write a targeted resume for each company, each position.

Never send a blanket resume and cover letter to every employer. It shows through and gets passed up in a nano second.

4. Look under free hidden rocks.

Bizzable’s staff searches 24/7 for hidden jobs and gives you centralized access in the free job search section.

5. Network, network, network.

Don’t underestimate the power of social media, the phone and face to face.

6. If you are not employed, volunteer at companies so that you retain a professional presence. Get out of the house every day.

7. Stay on track and don’t give up.Don’t expect results immediately.

8. Be prepared for the call back.

Many a job is lost by the poorly prepared. Give out the right contact info, answer your phone, walk with a cheat sheet on your strengths, be ready for an impromptu video conference call. Step outside if the dog is barking. Turn the TV off.

MY THOUGHTS

if you're not looking for a job, forward this to someone who is. I don't understand why you need to get out of the house everyday. i guess, maybe you might like it too much you'd want to remain unemployed for life.
