5 Clever Job Search Techniques

 5 Clever Job Search Techniques

Okay, you've applied to every work board on the internet, as well as Monster, CareerBuilder, and HotJobs. You've made follow-up calls and networked until your skin is blue. You take the newspaper every Sunday and apply for every job in your profession, with little or no success. So, here are few unusual places to pursue work.

Technique 1:Half Of Your Resume Should Be Sent

Look for a business where you want to live. Write an excellent cover letter that explains why you are a good candidate for the job and refers to the attached resume. Don't put a resume in the envelope and don't seal it. They'll believe the resume was misplaced in the mail. They'll call to have a chat with you. Sell yourself without remorse.

Technique 2:Consider Writing A Great Letter

Take advantage of direct mail's effectiveness. Identify five or ten businesses. Ask your support network whether they know someone who works at any of the firms on your list in a message. Give your resume to a friend who believes they know anyone on the list and ask them to send it to their contact or ask permission to send it personally.

Technique 3:Chain Letter Via E-mail

Make a list of businesses you'd like to apply for and send an email to anyone you meet asking if anybody knows anyone who works for them. If they do, invite them to call you so you can ask for a referral. Finally, request that they send your email to ten additional users. If you're already employed, though, don't do this.

Technique 4:Make A Booklet And Send It

Make a booklet of facts about the business and distribute it. Everyone appreciates free material, and you've shown your knowledge by providing it. Distribute the booklet online and in chat rooms where recruiting managers can see it.

Technique 5:Human Resources Can Be Called

Isn't it insane? Make a phone call to the human resources department. Inquire into the outside department or third-party recruitment company they work for. They'll inquire as to why you want to know. Tell them you're asking for a referral and their organization isn't looking for anyone with your skill set right now. The agency could be working with other companies. They could ask you to come in for an interview. At the very least, you'll get a lead. They'd like to avoid paying the department expenses. Being suggested also attracts extra interest. Thank them with a card.
