Now that we've provided some Basic ideas as to how to start the Job Search (Interview) Process, (in our previous Blog) I have highlighted more of of an actual checklist with regards to this Process.
YOU SHOULD HAVE:
•A clearer understanding and knowledge of the job search process and have developed a job-search strategy.
•A clear understanding of the jobs that interest you and that I am QUALIFIED for.
•An outline and Clear Career path/track
•Identified Your Strengths and Weaknesses.
•Developed My Personal Selling tools, which will help me Distinguish myself from other job-seekers.
•Identified KEY accomplishments from all school and work experiences. Also identify core transferable skills.
•Identified the main industries/companies that I have an interest in, AND the ones most likely to take an interest in me
•Researched specific companies that most interest me. Don't limit yourself to your immediate geography
•An understanding of the importance of marketing skills when job-hunting.
•Developed and strengthen network of contacts and know the value and importance of networking in a job search.
•Gathered a key list (including contact information) of references. (Even at an early stage)
Our next article will most likely involve the Resume Writing or Networking process.
