The list goes on, but make sure to consider
the
skills that would be beneficial for a working environment.
2) Work history. This includes volunteer, part-time, freelance, summer
and full time jobs. Once you have listed all your past
employment, examine the skills you do work each work duty.
* Ask for help. As soon as you have your list ready, you could now go
to job services that could help you acquire your desired job.
You could also search job yourself. However, always remember to match
your skills and abilities in your list to the needed skills and
abilities of various jobs.
In most cases, people who seek jobs are threatened with job titles.
This should not be the case. As long as your skills and abilities could
meet the requirements of the workload and job title, your possibility
of acquiring your desired job increases. |

Below are the top ten
do's and don'ts during an interview:
> Avoid wild colored nail polish before the
interview. The same goes with long nails that could easily
turn off some conservative employers. These should be neat
and very tidy looking.
> Never wear jewelry that rattles and jiggles as you
speak
and move. Try not to wear two or more rings or
earrings. Piercing aside from the ears is also a no.
> Professional hairdo also counts
> If you are a woman, wear closed shoes. Heels are
very appropriate as this gives more confidence to an individual and
sense of respect is also provided once they see the person wearing them.
> Again, for the ladies, never bare those newly
shaven legs. If possible, use stockings regardless of the
temperature. But make sure not to use fancy colored
ones. Only use those made for neutral looking legs.
These should also match the shoes.
> Remember that a good suit or dress brings more confidence
as well. This will also allow more comfort and chance for the
applicant to answer comfortably or with ease.
> Avoid short skirts for women. Wearing pants or
leggings are a no, no during interviews.
> Wear the appropriate blazers just as long as they do not
look fashion outdated. Do not use any leather coats or
jackets.
> For men, the tie is still appropriate. Avoid
using turtlenecks. If there is no suit and tie available, use
a collared shirt or white long sleeves.
> Men must not use too much aftershave.
> Women should be using bags that are not too bright and
conspicuous. These should be conservative and matching the
dress.
> Any briefcase used must be in perfect condition. |

Calm Down
Anticipate that you'll be declined. That's it. It's
really hard but never take it as a personal attack on you.
Don't let the feeling of being dismissed put you down and roll you
back. Be patient and learn from your mistakes. You
will reap a good harvest if you commit yourself to being
persistent. This will also help you find a strategy that will
work in the long run. Look at each turn down as if it were
the next stepping stone.
The Art of Questioning
You cannot expect someone to believe you right away and just sign up
after describing your company's objectives. You have to ask
the right questions. Ask what they do correctly and promptly
to help you use it along the conversation. A sure attention
getter when opening a conversation can be "May I ask you about
something Ms/Mr?" People want to help and this question
lowers their guard. The next question will be "Can you help
me out about this thing sir/ma'am?" This question does not
ask for a yes or no answer but would definitely give you a valuable
response that you can use all through out the interaction.
It's possible that the little Girl Scout on the street asked the same
question and left the doorway with 2 less boxes of cookies at
hand!
