Whether you’re a recent graduate or have been in the job market for years, job seeking is difficult. Have you considered changing your strategy?

There’s no denying it: looking for work is a full-time job in and of itself, and it doesn’t get any simpler as you grow older.

Do you feel like you’re going around in circles and getting nowhere? Before slamming out job applications, it’s sometimes a good idea to take a step back and truly think about your strategy.

If you’re stuck in a rut, changing your approach may offer you a new burst of confidence and, ideally, bring you the chance you’ve been looking for.

Job competition is fierce.

Our major piece of advise to job seekers is to go beyond just checking the boxes and matching the parameters that a company is searching for.

When applying for employment, you must truly sell yourself to a prospective employer – why should they choose you above other candidates? Consider how you can stand out from the throng.

This is often neglected by students who hunt for work by delivering bland CVs and cover letters to high-street retail businesses and pubs.

The way you conduct the application process reflects the kind of employee you are: come across as if you aren’t putting in the effort at this level of the game, and you will not impress anybody.

Also, don’t let rejected applications undermine your confidence too much. Remember the’survival of the fittest’ idea from secondary school? This also applies to the job market.

Those who are prepared to change their strategy and treat each rejection letter as if it were water off a duck’s back are more likely to succeed. Keep reminding yourself of this!

5 job-search strategies

To get you started on your new, wiser approach to job search, here are five suggestions you may not have considered while aiming to nail your student or graduate job application.

1. Attempt internet networking.

Connect with career networking sites such as sarkari job find. You may think this is a step ahead of yourself if you’re still in school, but employers like it if you’re already interested in what’s going on in the job market before you’ve even graduated.

Join discussion groups for sectors that interest you and begin developing your social network to stay up to date on the newest sarkari employment opportunities.

Following brands you enjoy and commenting on their articles is another wonderful approach to become noticed; however, keep your remarks professional and preserve your rants for Facebook.

2. Consult with friends and family

Employers often want to hire someone that their trusted colleagues can vouch for, hence staff recommendation is one of the most common techniques of recruiting.

Take advantage of this by asking friends and relatives who work in fields you’re interested in. This frequently results in you finding out about openings before the competitors, which gives you an immediate edge if someone can suggest you.

3. Look beyond job postings

Sticking to job postings isn’t always the greatest approach to go forward.

Focusing on individual firms rather than openings might work in your favour since you’ll already be interested in the firm when you go on to the application process. That should come over in what you say, rather than just submitting an application because there’s a position available.

Keep a watch on job postings, of course, but if you see a few openings at a wonderful firm and none of the jobs are right for you, send them a CV and cover letter regardless (remember: sell yourself!).

If a sarkari job finder posts many vacancies at the same time, it’s an indication that they’re growing. This indicates now is the moment to introduce yourself and show them what you’ve got.

4. Broaden your search (and your mind)

The employment market is continually growing at such a rapid speed, owing in large part to technology, that there are a plethora of occupations out there that you’ve probably never ever heard of – and that didn’t exist when you were conversing with your school’s careers adviser.

Do you know what a UX designer is, for example? Consider becoming a Content Marketer, a Backend Developer, or a Growth Hacker. It’s worth doing some study on this since you could discover that after you get past the strange titles, these are positions you’d want to try out for.

Choosing a less standard career path may also result in less competition, and you may discover that there are more chances accessible if you broaden your horizons and begin looking at more specialist roles.

5. Be self-assured and approachable.

As previously said, how you manage the application process will offer prospective employers an impression of the kind of employee you are.

Someone who takes the initiative to contact a senior member of staff to request a coffee, for example, will give off a lot more positive, go-getter image than someone who just puts in a flat CV and copy/pasted cover letter.

However, if you choose this alternative, be certain that you do thorough research on the firm before making your decision. You don’t want to be caught off guard by not fully comprehending who the firm is and what they do, since this would render all of your efforts futile.

Of course, we don’t recommend barging into an office and begging for a job, but just requesting to talk with someone from HR and telling them how fantastic you think the firm is can earn you some major gold stars next to your CV.

You’ll most likely stick out in their minds when it comes time to make a selection.

If you decide it’s not for you after the first year, that’s something you’ll remember for the rest of your life and (hopefully) you’ll have no regrets about having tried. It will also look great on your resume.
