The Interview : How to dress

jh2.jpgThe next part of a job application would be the interview. Many are afraid of it as if mamma was gonna� spank them if they didn�t eat their veggies. Well don�t be, the confidence you project can be a sure sign of who you are and it may play a key part in your getting the job. First, go to the interview properly dressed, this means appropriately. If you are applying for a job in a farmhouse wear jeans. In the business place, wear slacks and at least semi-formal attire. Formal for higher positions but all together, some companies don�t look at this at all. At least it makes you presentable whatever the standard attire the office requires.

This can make or break you in your future job hunting exploits for you might not believe it but people do actually check up on your character references. Companies, usually the big ones do background checks and spend a lot of time and resources in getting the people they want. They even go to the extent of giving better offers for highly qualified people they know they need and have to get into their ranks. Large companies have certain positions reserved for industry leaders and experts which they go out of their way in signifying their intent of hiring. To get a job you want, you must be able to prove yourself as a valuable addition to a company�s ranks. If you do have issues with past employers, try to amend and mention them with your current employers if asked to do so. Resumes are mostly outdated and online job hunting sites quite overrun with so many applications from all over they cannot cope. Decide on which jobs you want, which company you want to work for and do your homework.

Online job hunting pointers

To make you online job hunting easier, here are a few tips that might help you out:

1. Have a dedicated email address just for your professional use. All job applications and email regarding your job hunting are sent here, separate from your work email or your personal email address. The email address must also sound professional – preferably your name. The same goes for instant messenger screen names.

2. Never use shortcuts in professional conversations. Whether in email or in instant messaging, never use slang or shortcut words. It doesn’t follow that just because you are corresponding through the internet that the language you use should be unprofessional and informal.

3. Have your portfolio and resume always prepared.
Always have a resume and some samples of your work ready to send in an instant. But be sure that these samples and your resume are updated.

Traditional vs Technology-Based Job Hunting

jobhunt2Both techniques have their advantages and disadvantages and one thing that is most detrimental for most traditional walk-in methods is cost. You first have to spend cash looking, getting in and coming back for the interview/s and they can take time and money in terms of transportation and food costs. On the internet, it is fast and quite convenient, but with fraud, care must be exercised where you tread for you may end up in trouble, falling prey to identity theft. One thing that is not too good with online job searching is that it tends to be impartial or it lacks the human touch which some employers are looking for.
This is why, many traditional bosses still use traditional means of job advertising, newspapers and postings at community centers etc. Be creative and combine the two for with actual job hunting on your own two feet, you get to see which works and what doesn’t as opposed to online job hunts which takes the human out of the equation. Whichever technique you wish to employ, you have to balance the need between getting a job and getting one you love to keep.

Online Interviews

Online Job Interview
It began with manual submissions and mail-in’s now we have online resume posting and submissions and it was only time when the whole process would go over the net. Online interviews are becoming more prevalent due to constraints in time, money and other resources on both sides. The recession is biting hard and employers want to spend less time and money hiring when they need to fill in positions.
Offices use teleconferencing equipment all through the internet where a possible candidate is logged on and drilled online. From the resume selection process, a schedule is set for the interview which allows the applicant to keep his job logging-on for a few minutes for the said interview during breaks. Be sure you check-out and take leave so you don’t get into trouble with conflict of interest issues. Do it on the corner internet cafe or coffee shop with your laptop. Being jobless can be one of the most depressing situations so focus your energy into your job hunt to get back on the employment roster.
