Job Seekers How to find a Job
Tips for job seeker who’s going nuts trying to find a job
Anyone in a job search knows it pretty much sucks. Not
very eloquent, I know, but that seems to sum it up best.
A job search that goes on too long, or yields little
employer feedback in the form of interviews or
feedback, can start to become demoralizing and
depressing. You can begin to feel like you are an island.
When you see everyone else going off to work, having a
“normal” life, while you are at home, day after day, you
can start to get a little nuts.
1. Don’t keep doing the same thing
2. Meet with people often
3. Limit your time searching online job boards
4. Exercise
5. Get the right tools
Don’t keep doing the same thing
If your job search is not delivering results, don’t keep doing
the same thing. Change your strategy, seek new tactics and
find help where you think you are coming up short. It
could be in the form of a job coach, an interview critique or
resume reviewer. It could even mean talking with
recruiters and HR managers that you know to ask them
why they think you are not getting results.
Meet with people often
Isolation becomes one of the biggest enemies to the
unemployed. Searching for work at home, by yourself can
secretly start to wear you down and diminish your
communication skills and confidence. Get out and work in a
Starbucks once a week. Join an accountability group of job
seekers – just make sure they are positive people. Join
“Meet Up” groups related to your profession, interests or
hobbies. This later approach just gets you out interacting
with people. You may even find a connection that leads you
to your next opportunity!
Limit your time searching online job boards
Limit your time searching online job boards. Limit your time
searching online job boards. Limit your time searching online
job boards. Get the point? It’s an easy trap to fall into. You
think you are productive finding job opportunities online and
applying to them, but you’re dead wrong! VERY FEW people
get a job from online job boards. You need to spend 80% of
your time networking and less than 20% on job boards. Be
disciplined about this point.
Exercise
Your brain is going nuts. You’re stressed. The best
cure is physical exercise. Get out of the house once a
day and go to the gym or find a place to work out. Do
it the same time every day to establish a routine. You
would have a routine if you had a job, therefore, you
should have a routine when you look for a job. I’m not
a health nut. Just trust me; this tip is a must for every
job seeker. You will feel better, look better and be
more prepared when you do have an interview.
Get the right tools
Most people use tools of one sort or the other for their jobs.
The same should be true for job seekers. You need tools that
will help you with the job search process. A critical tool for the
job seeker in 2014 is a job search tracking system (JTS).
Without it, you might as well add 10 weeks to your job search.
A JTS is like a CRM for job seekers. Don’t know what CRM is?
Google it. I’m not going to do all the work for youJ The best
JTS out there is SnagPad and you can try it free here.
Hopefully, these five points will help make your job search
experience more positive and shorter. Remember, you
are a great worker and you can offer tremendous value to
an employer. Use these tips to help you put your best
foot forward in your job search. Best of luck!
