Job Search Strategies

Job search strategies are the steps you need to take to get a job. Careers activities during Year 11 or Year 13 will have helped you prepare for some of the practical aspects of job hunting - writing a CV, preparing for an interview etc. This type of help and support from careers advisory staff can continue even after you have left school.

Job Hunting

Job hunting follows a logical series of steps such as writing letters, filling out job application forms, attending interviews and possibly sitting some tests.

There are certain key skills that will help you in your job hunting. You need to:

  • know where to look for employment
  • know how to respond to job adverts
  • have an good CV that make employers take notice of you
  • know how to 'perform' at interviews
  • be able to deal with job offers
For more detailed information on Job Search skills see employment pages.
