Ottawa Job Search!

 

Job search on the internet has gradually become common. The rapid growth of the online culture with more and more people surfing the web followed by more and more different offers, mean that the internet has become a useful tool for many everyday activities.

So, what is the solution to become visible among the hundreds or maybe thousands of other job applicants? If you aim to receive a career or job offer from an online site, you need to perform a different type of effort than applying for a job position listed in your local newspaper.

1. Find the right job for you. This is done by going into yourself and honestly assess your qualifications. Then you can have a realistic idea of what type of job you are actually looking for.

 

 

Find the job for you.

 

 

2. Search on all the online posision search sites that you know of. This means the major general job sites like Monster and CareerBuilder, but also the smaller, industry specific sites like Aviation Job Search or Dice.com. It might seem tedious to sift through thousands of jobs to find the ones you want to apply for. However, I recommend that you really take the time to do this.

3. Select a few companies or places that you would like to work. Visit their websites and check out if they have an employment page. Use this to submit your job application. Since these sites normally don't receive the amount of traffic that even the minor posision search sites do, you have a much better chance of standing out from the crowd by doing it this way.


You should also keep track of where you have submitted your cover letters and resumes, as well as which work posision search site you found the job listing through. You'll need to follow up on leads in the search process and you also need to evaluate the job sites you have used, so that you can determine which sites best suit your needs.

Say Thank You

Using a job acceptance letter when offered a position shows true professionalism. It is a way of saying “thank you” to the person who hired you, and giving them assurance that they made the right decision. You have presented yourself to them as a professional with your resume, cover letter, reference sheet, salary history, letters of recommendation, follow up note, and any other personal marketing materials you’ve used while job hunting. You went out of your way to make sure that the interview went well, and probably did your homework on the company before going in for that first interview. Now using a job acceptance letter will be a capstone on all your work, and perfect the positive professional image you’ve tried to convey throughout the job search and hiring process.

 

 

 

Do Your Research!

 
Every time you submit your resume, you should do some research on the company you are applying to.  You should look at their web site and see what kind of feeling it gives you about the company. Does it fit in with your values, and what your long-term career goals are? See where they've been and how much growth they have enjoyed over the time they've been in business.

Now that you have determined that this is a reliable, reputable company, go ahead and submit your cover letter and resume.

Be sure and use the company's preferred method of applying, and if they require information from you like salary requirements, include that in your response. Always tailor your cover letter to each job that you are applying for. Don't ever use a canned response. It tells me that the candidate didn't think enough of my company to really look at the job requirements or do any research. And, it tells me that the person is careless and sloppy if they didn't even edit their cover letter. If that's the case, why should I waste my time reading their submission?
