Do you have a method to your job search?



I would like tips on how to organize your job hunting campaign. The leads are always out there, but how do you manage it all? The best answer will be one that precisely explains a system that has worked for him.

I set a goal for myself: Apply for two jobs a day, whether I am perfectly qualified, a little overqualified, or sometimes a little underqualified.

It took a while for interviews to start rolling in, and I got many emails and letters of rejection.

I stuck with it for 8 months before I landed a VERY good job in a place I love to live in!

Don't give up even when it looks hopeless. It's not! Source(s): Been there, done that.
The Five Best Ways to Hunt for a Job. The five best ways to try to find a job, listed in order from lowest success rate to best, are:

1. Asking for job leads from: family members, friends, people in the community, staff at career centers -- especially at your local community college or high school or college where you graduated.

2. Knocking on the door of any employer, factory, or office that interests you, whether they are known to have a vacancy or not.

3. By yourself, using the phone book's Yellow Pages to identify subjects or fields of interest to you in the town or city where you are, and then calling up the employers listed in that field, to ask if they are hiring for the type of position you can do, and do well.

4. In a group with other job hunters, using the phone book's Yellow Pages to identify subjects or fields of interest to you in the town or city where you are, and then calling up the employers listed in that field, to ask if they are hiring for the type of position they can do, and do well.

5. Doing A Life-Changing Job-Hunt. A job hunt is just a job hunt until we come to that point in our lives where we want to set our feet upon a new path. When the traditional job hunt doesn't work very well at all. A life changing job hunt requires a different approach. You are contemplating radically shifting direction. This is called by various names. Sometimes it's called "Find Your Dream Job," Sometimes it is called "a career change."

This system has been used by millions of people and proven to be the most effective. I have taught this sytem to hundeds of people and it really works.

Peace and every blessing!
