Graduate earlier this month? Been taking a break? You deserve it, afterall. But, you also deserve a job. So, time to get back in the program and get serious about your job search again.
Where to start? May I suggest? Set up a record keeping system to keep track of all the people and organizations you have contacted, method and date of contact, response, and anything else of significance. Keep this up to date and you could potentially save yourself the embarrassment of having an employer call who you have little or no memory of contacting.
Next, make up another list of people and organizations you want to contact. This can include people you want to conduct informational interviews and/or network with, employers you want to drop by to leave your resume with, employers you will fill out an online application with. You get the idea.
After all this list making, hopefully the job search adrenalin will be pumping. Good, because next time we will go over "Ten Reasons to Use LinkedIn".
Get a Job!
