Job search

Job search is a long process which needs lots of time and effort. You can’t start it without a resume. You present the most important information about yourself in it: your background, your work experience, skills and special knowledge. You should write your objective too, that is what position you are aiming at.

With your resume drawn you start direct research. You study business magazines and newspapers and look for the companies that regularly hire in your field. You can send your resume to these companies. Employment and recruitment agencies are aimed at assisting you in finding a job. State employment agencies are funded by state labour departments. The most effective way to use their services is to visit the local offices.

Only employment agencies and some recruitment agencies will actively market you to a large number of companies. The most part of recruitment agencies only present the credentials on exciting position. It is useful to visit job fairs and career days, ask your family, relatives, friends, neighbours and acquaintances to help you in job search.

Interview is an important part in your job search. It is important to make a good impression and to wear proper clothes. Try to keep eye contact with the key person in the meeting. It is not proper to ask about the salary at the first interview or criticize your former boss or company. It is not recommended to discuss personal problems with representative of the company. It is important to assure the company representatives that you are the right person for the position.
