Clean Up Your Act on Social Media

Review your privacy settings and if it's questionable, maybe leave it off the Internet.

You Are Going to Need a Strong Resume

Since a vast majority of positions that do make it out to job boards will be using online applications, the look of your resume matters far less than the content.

Be Mindful of the ATS

Another element that will impact how likely your resume is to get past the applicant tracking software is your use of keywords.

Focus on Your Accomplishments

While the job description details can hit the keywords, they should not be the meat of your resume.

Get a Feel for the Company During the Interview

This can take some getting used to, but remember, no matter how badly you want or need this job, if you don't feel comfortable with the interview team, do you really want to work there long-term?

Be Patient Postinterview

The goal is that you have found something you will be able to do for a while, and the company has found someone who will want to stick around.

Keep an Open Mind

Instead of viewing this as a negative, though, consider the opportunities.
