The Digital Job Search for job seekers – Part 1 – Jobs Boards
There is no denying the Internet has rapidly become one of the most important tools for job seekers, as more and more digital job search resources have become available and even mobile-optimised. If you are not using online resources during your search, you are part of a minority. Just like any other career endeavour, job seekers need to be equipped with a set of skills to help you succeed in your job search:
1) Organising Your Digital Job Search – Maintaining an ordered search will reduce the amount of time you spend trawling the internet.
2) Knowing Your Toolkit – Look at the tools you have at your disposal, and identify the best and worst uses for each one.
3) Using Your Social Media Accounts – Your job seeker online presence has more of an impact than you think during your digital job search. The activity on your accounts should be an extension of your professional side. Do not post images that may be compromising as these are easily traceable now.
4) Finding Your Calling – So your vague searches are yielding way too many postings with little substance. What to do? Be specific. Be discerning. Be confident. Have a look at our post about finding the right job path for you. You can read part two of this article by clicking here.
