B. There are many places that you can place an ad to find potential workers. These places include:

- local Newspapers, including local/neighborhood publications;

- newsletters of community churches, mosques, or temples, local organizations or support groups;

- job service offices, employment, and temporary agencies;

- bulletin boards at grocery stores, apartment buildings, libraries, local recreational facilities, Laundromats, clinics;

- the student employment office or nursing and social work programs at area vocational schools, community colleges and universities;

- word-of-mouth;

- use the web. There are many job board sites on the 'Net that you can use for employee recruitment.

C. There are two key stages to getting the job you want. The first is securing an interview with a well presented and relevant CV and the second is how you perform in the interview. A CV, also known as a résumé, is a summary of your professional background. Your CV should be one to two pages long and include an overview of your work experience, studies, achievements or awards, special skills, and references. Your contact information should always be included at the top of the first page. http://work.sweden.se/

The company will review your documents and contact you if you have gone forward to the interview stage of the recruitment process. The employer already knows your basic qualifications; during the interview, you have the chance to show your enthusiasm for the job at hand and give the employer a sense of who you are as a person. Don’t be surprised if some of the questions asked are not directly work-related – be prepared to talk about your family and what you do in your free time.
