Been out of the recruitment market for a while, not sure where to start?
Maybe you’ve been made redundant and you now need to look for work, having never made a job application or attended an interview before in your life……
Confused by the terminology, don’t know your job descriptions from person specifications, personality profiles and psychometrics? No problem it’s easy when you de-code all this jargon.
All any employer wants is to recruit the best person for the job. If you can make it as easy as possible for any employer to see that you are exactly what they are looking for, job done!
Need guidance on how to apply, update or create your CV and make a strong application?
Job hunting has changed so much over the last few years and although some organisations still rely on paper applications, the majority of employers recruit online now. You need to learn essential skills to be best placed to tap into the opportunities out there. Today’s recruitment is all about CV optimisation and matching candidates with available roles, using Linkedin to advertise positions and targeting specific demographics. This can reduce the effort of the job hunter, if you are lucky. Your details have to be out there of course to be in with a chance of being matched to a role. Recruitment agencies play their role, but experiences and quality of service varies dramatically, likely due to high performance targets they need to reach which impacts on their ability to offer the service you should receive. If you find a good agency, that behaves honestly and ethically, stick with them. You still need to know how to make a stand out application whether that’s by email, using your CV. through an application portal, on paper, over the telephone or a simply a conversation over a coffee when you’ve been approached to see if you are interested in working for them!
