As you all know, work is very difficult to get at the moment. There are so many people looking for work that competition has really increased. Job seekers really have to up their game to ensure they stand out from all the competition.
A few simple tips for job seekers:
- Update your CV
- Double check it for spelling and grammatical errors
- Register your CV on various online job boards, such as Reed.co.uk and Fish4.co.uk.
- Customise each covering letter for each job application.
- Only apply for jobs that you have the relevant skills/experience for.
When approaching agencies and prospective employers:
- Make sure you are dressed smartly/neatly as if you were going to work.
- Start off by introducing yourself and finding out who the right person is to speak to.
- If you are not offered one, ask for a business card, that way you have relevant contact details to follow up your visit. You could then send a brief email with CV and covering letter, if appropriate.
- Be polite and positive; never speak badly about previous employers.
- Remember you are selling yourself and the skills and experience that you have to offer!
