Job hunting tips(2)

  • Create a contact database - Write down all the employers you contact, the date you sent your résumé.
  • Make a "to do" list every day - This will help you organize your list of priorities and keep you focused on finding that perfect job.
  • Learn how to talk about yourself - Throughout your job search, you will speak with many people at different levels. You must be comfortable having conversations about yourself with other people. Keep in mind that you never know who may end up being useful to your job hunt.
  • Find out all there is about employers in your field - Remain current on any issues or developments in the field, read trade journals or professional publications, and read the newspaper. It is extremely impressive during an interview if you know about the latest merger or coup in the industry.
