How to find a job Measures 1. Check for a full-time job. You need to devote as many as 40 hours a week for this effort. Sometimes it takes luck to find a job, but when you put in the legwork to hunt for a reputed position for yourself, it will give you a sense of confidence and satisfaction. Remember that Louis Pasteur once said, "Chance favours the prepared mind." 2. Analyse yourself. To begin with, prepare two lists. One, a list of all your talents and two, a list of everything you remember. Along with the job, include unpaid internships, volunteer work, civic involvement, extracurricular activities, etc. Using this task list, decide which the skills you enjoy the most. Review any personal factors that are holding you back from your dream job. For example, some people are nocturnal (Night Owls), their biological clock works in the opposite direction and they cannot afford to take up the classical 9-5 jobs. It is important that you consider these factors as these will effect your job hunting procedure. * How to find a job with disability * How to find a job when you are blind or visually impaired * How to find a job without a car 3. Review opportunities. You may want to seek different career paths, for example, you may want to move to another state to find your dream job. 4. Decide on your career field. Make a list of all potential employments within the field in which the best of your experiences, skills, and interests match. 5. Write a resume. It is very easy and important to fill out an application or a written record of your work history. 6. Sort your wardrobe - Power suits, shined shoes etc. Find a place for manicure and hair cut, get a tan. Freeze up and lose a few pounds and start feeling strong. Cover up your tattoos. Prepare for the interview - not in a very dark suit with white socks (unless you're in the fashion industry!) 7. Prepare your personal elevator pitch. This is a good practice that will help you answer all the questions, especially the one - "Why should I hire you?" 8. Make a list of research companies, organisations, or non-profit organisations that meet your requirements. You can check in the yellow pages, online job search, government-sponsored 2|P ag e

employment lines, or your inner circle of family and community plus you can ask around. Make yourself available to recruiters or headhunters. Most employment classified ads, employment agencies and unemployment offices do not like the usual ways. 9. Make sure you apply in accordance with your requirements. 10. Cold Call: Any specific person who helped you (usually a company or organisation, human resources or hiring managers you are interested in) can get you. Call them and ask if they are hiring but do not get discouraged if they are not. Ask them what sort of qualifications they are looking for and if they are hiring as apprentice or government-sponsored work programmers. Try to inform them about the field of work you want to indulge in. Indicate whether you would accept a job lesser than the one you have applied for. * After each phone call, try to ascertain what went well and what did not. If required, try to write out some standard answers on your skills list so that you can speak more fluently. You might even need to get some additional training to break into your chosen field. This does not mean that you cannot get a good job, its only that you might require further preparation. 11. Other option is to apply for an unlisted job by writing a letter, although phone calls get better and more rapid response. Always show up at the interview with good attitude, eagerness to work and eagerness to learn. You can demonstrate how interesting and individualistic you are later when they get to know you better. 12. Thank the interviewer for their time. After each interview, try to figure out what mistakes what mistakes you have made and try not to repeat them in future. Little mistakes can sometimes cost you. Review * Realise that you can work your way through. For example, for a company that manufactures or sells goods for apparel buyers. If you get a snotty one, you would be happy if you choose not to work. * It is also possible that your actual dream is to be self-employed or to run a business. In such cases, it is not a very good idea to search for and find work, but the best thing is to create a job for yourself rather than hunt for it. * Remember 80% of all available jobs are not advertised.

Alert * If you are looking for a job, there are chances that you will be rejected. If you're not getting rejected, it implies you are not putting yourself out there enough. If you are dejected by the rejection, it means that you will have a tough time hunting for the job.
