Knowing how to go about getting a job can be<br />
tricky if you have limited experience in the job<br />
market, but here are five tips which will increase<br />
your chances of gaining employment.<br />
Network - Many people find jobs through people<br />
they know rather than traditional job adverts. Talk<br />
to family, friends and other people you know and<br />
ask if they are aware of any vacancies.<br />
Attract employers - Get potential employers to<br />
come to you. Post your CV online with various<br />
agencies and you could save yourself a lot of time<br />
and effort job hunting.<br />
Target companies - Look at the organisations<br />
which might make a good employer and<br />
concentrate on them. This may mean you only<br />
look at the big employers in your area or it might<br />
mean that you look into one sector but nationwide.<br />
Think positive - We all get a few knock backs<br />
when looking for work. Don't take it personally if<br />
you are rejected or don't even get a response. It’s<br />
probably not because of anything you have done<br />
wrong.<br />
Find hidden vacancies - Many jobs are landed<br />
before they are advertised but you need to act<br />
quickly. Look into internal recruitment and get<br />
friends to tune into their own company grapevines.<br />
It’s a good way of getting your foot in the door<br />
early.<br />
Knowing how to find a job is a skill in itself. Once<br />
you have been successful, the process becomes<br />
easier next time around.<br />
