Frustrated With Your Job Hunt? Then Diversify Your Job Search for Better Results

3/2/2017

Are you using the same job boards to apply for jobs each week and getting nowhere?

Then, try diversifying your search by using various job boards. Second, make sure you have all your application information, such as previous employers’ contact information and a list of references. Small details like this could separate you from the competition.

Lastly, even though “quick applies” gets your resume to an employer faster, it also means that hundreds of other people probably submitted their resume too. So, try applying to positions that require more effort because these attract fewer applicants and thus minimizes your competition.

Good luck and as always... Happy job hunting!!
