Summer Networking

Summer is a great time to attend functions that are free. This may include parades, picnics, firework displays and other outside activities. The worst thing you could do right now is throw your hands up and stay at home because you are upset that you don't have a job.   You never know who you might meet. You never know who could open a door for you to a hiring authority. It's important to keep your spirits up which often occurs when you get out of the house and interact with people. It's also important to come across POSITIVE, not negative or depressed. You will obtain more referrals if someone feels you present yourself well.  For those of you in the US, the three day July 4th Holiday is the perfect time to get out and NETWORK. You might even want to volunteer to work on a parade or at a festival in order to force yourself to mingle with others. Your next employer could be sitting right next to you at one of these events.

MUST READ
It is important to read the articles that are posted within the 16 Step Process for finding employment. Login to our Career Portal and click on one of the following THREE PHASES of a Job Search: PREPARE - SEARCH & CONNECT - INTERVIEW.
Identify where you are in your job search process and then proceed to the appropriate step in the 16 step process. If you don't want to watch the Webinars, you may simply read the handout. If your job search is stalled or not resulting in interviews, you may need to declare your current search "dead" and start at the beginning of the 16 step process. The information found in the 16 step process has already helped thousands of job seekers and it will help you too!

TIP FOR THE WEEK
It is now the end of the second quarter of 2011. This is the perfect time to re-contact everyone you had a phone or face-to-face interview with in the first quarter of this year i.e January - March.  (Unless those interview were scheduled through us. We work on your behalf and would always let you know if something was available for you.) Often the person they hired did not work out or they may have additional positions available. These are also great people to target for informational interviews. It's amazing how many job seekers get hired the second time around!
