Tips for Starting and Conducting your Job Search, Resume Tips, Networking tips, and Interviewing Tips

Preparing for the Job Hunt
  • Build your own job-hunting strategy and have a clear idea why you are looking for a new job.
  • Know how the job you are applying for fits into your longer-term career plans, and be ready to talk about your goals and aspirations. Define your short and long-term goals.
  • Take a class on how to interview, how to sell yourself, and how to write a winning resume.
  • Do more homework to prepare your resume. Begin with an executive summary.
  • Begin or continue with self-improvement to make you more marketable. Use any time between jobs productively to develop new skills.
  • Research the company, position and person you are interviewing with.
  • Write down questions you wish to ask during the interview.
  • Develop an elevator pitch to use at career fairs.
  • Develop your interview skills-use positive language, good eye contact, open body language, and show enthusiasm.
  • Practice interviewing and ask for feedback, then revise your interview strategy.
  • Spend time preparing answers to questions that you can reasonably expect to be asked in an interview.
  • Don't count on one particular opportunity. Have options that will allow you to control your future.
Impress Them with your Resume
  • Customize your resume and cover letter for every job you apply for.
  • Read the job description and make sure to use the words they use.
  • Make sure the spelling and grammar are perfect.
  • Write a strong resume.
  • Outline specific skills to fit each opportunity.
  • Your resume should be no longer than 2-3 pages.
  • Fill in gaps, highlight successes, and specify your value add.
  • Be specific and truthful, so you won't have to remember what you wrote.
  • Build a skills inventory. You need to know yourself and then know how to present youself.
Job Search Using your Network
  • Network! Most positions are filled through employee referrals. Don't be afraid to contact your friends, family, and professional network to ask for help in landing a job.
  • LinkedIn.com is probably the best source for networking, researching companies, and finding former associates working for the company you are applying to.
  • Build a strong list of references. Ask your reference if they would be able to provide a positive reference that would help you secure your next position. Discuss your employment opportunities with them prior to them getting a call.
  • Utilize your school's alumni network.
  • Find out who the "key" contacts are at companies where you have an interest and reach out to them.
  • Get to know the top search professionals in your area.
  • Have informational meetings with people you know in the industry.
  • If you know any recruiters or managers who interview new employees, ask them to conduct a mock interview and take their feedback on your resume and your interview style.
  • Join professional and industry organizations and attend their meetings.
  • Treat recruiters and prospective employers with courtesy and respect. You may want to pursue another future opportunity with the same people, so leave a good impression.
In the Interview...
  • Don't be late-arrive 10 minutes early. If you are unsure where you are going, practice the route before the interview day.
  • Dress professionally and act professionally.
  • Be prepared to sell yourself-it's not a time to be bashful.
  • Smile!
  • Be honest about what you can and cannot do.
  • Stay positive-looking for a new job can be a long process and a positive attitude goes a long way.
  • Keep the conversation focused on the opportunity available.
  • Listen and engage: Don't just talk in the interview.
  • Build a list of questions about the position you are interviewing for. If you don't ask questions, you seem uninterested. Ask questions about the company. You need to interview the company just as much as they need to interview you!
  • Clearly understand what the interviewer is looking for and reply concisely.
  • Ask for the job.
  • Ask what a typical day looks like.
  • Ask what the hiring manager's priorities are.
  • Remember - it is a small industry, so never bad-mouth your employer
  • At the end of the interview, ask the question, "Do you have any questions or concerns that would stop you from bringing me back for a second interview?"or "Are there objections that need to be overcome?
  • Send a thank-you note outlining why you feel you are qualified and ask for the job!
