How to avoid dropping a brick in process of job search

If you do not have authoritative friends willing to help you with employment, or you do not want to deal with recruitment agencies, and job search gives no results, then follow our advice.

1. Analyze, whether you determined the area of your job search correctly

Job seekers who pretend to a certain position often exert maximum efforts to get a job. But after lots of vain attempts they give up and lose heart. They seem to have work experience, they are invited to job interviews, and the first impression is always positive… But every time a HR manager says in an apologetic voice: “I am sorry to tell you, but right now we do not have any positions suitable for you”. What's the matter then?

Professions of adjacent scopes of activity assume performing at first sight the same duties, but that is not so. Let us take for example a position of credit analyst in bank. Duties of a credit analyst can be totally different from his colleague’s duties, on condition that one bank gives credits to individual customers while the other one gives credits to small businesses.

2. Do not neglect the opportunity to post your resume on a website or in a newspaper.

It is generally agreed that an employer will rush to trumpet that he needs a specialist. Job seekers look through new vacancies from time to time and fondly believe that it is enough for full-fledged job search. However many employers prefer to search potential employees without posting vacancies, but by means of looking through resumes of candidates. It takes not more than 3 minutes to post a resume, but the result will not keep you waiting too long. Since employers are willing to open a vacancy not only in case of emergency. It can happen that the position is already taken, but due to different reasons the employer looks for a substitute, searches a new employee. Then your resume can stand you in good stead. An employer will call you himself, if your candidature interests him after he reviews your resume.

3. Pay attention to your name and e-mail: they should look correctly

If you want to get a good job, be careful indicating your e-mail address. Your nickname can tell a lot about you.

There was a case in one large company, when a resume was received to the following effect:

“I am an experienced specialist in HR management, I know staff motivation methods, easily win confidence of direct reports, I am sociable, friendly, responsible, honest. The cover letter is attached. My e-mail: petticoat@yahoo.com”.

Since any employer knows that everyone has freedom in choosing an e-mail address, the manager treated the candidate with such unusual sense of humour suspiciously. You should register another e-mail for business correspondence, for example, johnson@yahoo.com. “Chicks”, “dudes” and “machos” should be left for private mail.
