Job Search
Focus on Quality over Quantity
Have you applied for dozens or even hundreds of jobs online and heard nothing? Do you wonder what you're doing wrong, but struggle to figure out if it's your application, resume, or something else? Let's dive in and uncover the problem areas in your job search. Then we can identify what will work better for you.
How many jobs should you apply for? Do you need a resume? Do you need to change your resume every time you apply for a different job? Do you need a cover letter? Should you call or check in with the hiring manager or recruiter? What if you don't meet all of the job requirements, should you still apply? How do you avoid scams or know if a job is still open? And most importantly, how do you stand out from the crown before you even have a chance to meet the recruiter?
Online Social Media and Networking Sites
Most employers look at candidates' online profiles, including Facebook. It's important to ensure yours reflects the details about your life that you wouldn't mind your employer seeing.
Professional profiles on LinkedIn and other online networking sites can be tricky to write and edit. Depending on level, in many functions and industries, having a cohesive, current and discoverable online profile is essential in an active job search. But it can be hard to know what to put on your profile when you're out of work.
Having a professional presence online can also be a great way to network, learn, stay in touch, receive and give recommendations.
