Continuing to share - I was recently on a “Job Hunting During a Pandemic” panel sharing tips on resumes and interviewing based on my experience of reviewing thousands of resumes and conducting hundreds of interviews over my career. Here are 3 Job hunting Tips:
1. Networking
I read a recent survey that said ~80% of job openings don’t get posted – this confirms that networking is key!
If you build genuine relationships with people, your network may be able to help connect you with other people and companies when you are in need.
Networking could lead to a higher chance of landing an interview and even getting to know more about a company and it’s culture prior to working there.
2. Recruiter
I would highly recommend working with a recruiter based on the fact above that most job openings don’t get posted. Often a company will conduct a search only through a recruiter.
Find a recruiter who understands your field of interest and is a good fit with who you want to partner with.
3. LinkedIn
I’d encourage you to keep your profile up to date. Many companies may check out your online presence through their recruiting process.
Also it’s a good way for Companies to look for talent as well!
