How to get a job?

What is the most common mistake students make?

The biggest mistake in résumé writing is to not include an objective statement or to use an objective statement that is so vague it's meaningless. In one or two sentences, it should indicate the type of position they are seeking, the type of work setting and may include a brief statement of skills.

We must look our best, feel our best and be aware of our actions.

Attend Community Meetings- The most active people are involved.

Volunteer- It is good for your soul and you will meet people.

Join Clubs- Those who join very often have many other contacts.

Visit Places of Business- Find out if there is a potential job.

Before asking for a job, be able to speak intelligently about the organization.

Do research so that you are able to talk about the business before asking for a job.

Be aware of your appearance. Extremely beautiful people, with charming personalities who smell good, are well groomed and neatly dressed, have little trouble getting job offers. The rest of us should look in the mirror or ask someone we trust for an honest opinion of the image we are projecting. We can determine what outfit to wear by looking at what other employees wear to work.

Prepare for contacts and interviews by practicing your presentation:

- Be able to briefly talk about your education, experience and abilities in relationship to the job for which you are applying.

- Be ready to discuss what you have learned about the company that has motivated you to apply for the job.

- Practice means saying the words out loud, not to memorize, rather just to have experience saying the words.
