Have focus and do research to get there if
needed
Understand the types of jobs that
would be fit for your skills and
qualifications and interests and
the settings and industries where
you can find those jobs. Even if
you are pursuing multiple
options, keep your job search
efforts targeted. If you are
seeking any job, with any type
of employer, doing anything,
you will not be successful,
because employers are seeking
focus.

Look for hidden vacancies
Instead of advertising their
available jobs, employers
often look to fill vacancies
by word-of-mouth,
headhunting or simply by
recruiting internally.
Knowing how to get
yourself in contention for
these roles could give you a
major boost when it comes
to finding your next role.

Don't put all your eggs in one basket = one
type of job search method.
If you limit your job
search to just one method
(e.g. just looking online
on one web site; just
looking at one
organization, etc.), you
will limit your options.
Use a mix of methods and
sources.

Get employers to come to you
Getting headhunted is no
longer the preserve of
employees in senior
management. When you
post your CV online, you
are immediately putting
your details within reach of
thousands of employees
may save you the trouble
of searching through job
adverts.

Target the right companies
Do you want to be a big fish
in a small pond or would you
rather have the safety of a
large organization with job
security and a clear career
path? Knowing what you
want allows you to narrow
down your search and spend
more time on applying for
the roles you really want.

No one job search method will reveal all of
the jobs out there
Not every kind of job or industry
is represented in every job search
method. For example there are
many jobs you will not find
through the On-Campus
Interviewing Program, and there
are many jobs you will not find
posted on job boards online. And
the vast majority of employers do
not physically come to campus for
fairs and other kinds of
recruitment.

Keep your spirits up
As time passes, the
rejections mount up and
the budgets get tighter, it's
easy to become
disheartened. However,
this is exactly the time
when you need to dust
yourself off and put in
more hard work than ever.
One of the main attributes
of a successful job seeker
is persistence.

Don't Wait
If you are laid-off, file for
unemployment benefits
right away. You will most
likely be able to file online
or by phone. Waiting could
delay your benefits check.
