SIMPLE TIPS FOR GETTING THE JOB YOU LOVE
2
  • Decide What Kind Of Job You Would Like To Do
  • Make A Strategic Plan
  • Pass The Word Around
  • Job Ads
  • Training
  • Send In Your Resume
  • Work Experience

3
Decide what kind of job would you like to do
  • This requires some amount of introspection. An
    ideal job should be one that you have a talent or
    educational qualifications or experience for. It
    should provide enough compensation to meet your
    basic needs and provide you with a little bit of
    comfort as well.
  • It should have growth prospects that are in sync
    with your ambitions. Are you a technical person
    or are you a people's person? There are many,
    many aspects to a job and you need to look at
    your dream job from all these aspects and see if
    they are what you are looking for.

4
Make a strategic plan
This plan should have all the components of the
job you want. The different ways you would like
to target the job, the key persons in the
industry and if possible how you are going to try
and approach them. The contact details of the
organizations that you would like to target are
also important.
5
Pass the word around
Start with the people you know, especially if
they work in the field that you are looking for
or are working in a related field. They will also
help you fine tune your 'ideal job' description
and put you in touch with the actual market
conditions in that line of work. The people you
know may directly put you in touch with others
who work in your 'ideal' line of work.
6
Job Ads
Check the employment ads in the papers. If you
are looking for a technical job, related industry
publications may carry ads. If there is a
particular organization that you have set your
sights on, check on the company web site.
7
Training
By speaking to people in the field you will be
able to gauge if you have the ideal
qualifications, skills and experience. You may
need to increase your marketability by updating
your skills or training. Before you actually
enroll in a training program, seek the opinion of
at least a couple of people in the field to
ensure that the course you take definitely has
market demand.
8
Send in your resume
  • If you find that 'your' organization has not
    advertised any vacancies either in the newspapers
    or their website, call them up and find out the
    contact details of the person who heads the
    department where you would like to work. Send in
    your resume. Try and make your passion for the
    job come across strongly.
  • Organizations are always looking for people who
    are passionate about their jobs, as they are
    likely to be top performers. Try to customize
    your resume so that it does not look like a
    standard resume that you are sending out to a
    hundred prospective employers.

9
Work experience
Work experience is a big plus when selecting a
candidate. If you do not have the necessary
experience, you might consider working on a
voluntary basis just to gain practical experience
and knowledge. Working in this manner will also
give you first-hand in-depth knowledge of the job.
