If you are ready to hit the job market, here are few things you should consider.
Resume Review
Your resume is the first thing any hiring manager looks at. So, make it crisp, concise and relevant to the job you are applying for. Get your resume reviewed by a professional who understands the industry, your profile and role you are applying for. It's very important to connect the dots. A professional resume writer who understands all the three aspects is best for this job.
????????????? ??Your Domain
????????????? ?? The Industry Insights
??????????? ???? Role in hand
Mock Interview
It's very important to have a mock interview session before you go for any interview. The one who crafts your resume as per the JD in hand, is the best person to conduct this mock interview session as he would understand you, your answers and the requisites of the role very well.
Mock interview helps you to avoid fumbling during interview and will bring out the real confidence in you and your answers.
Career Coaching
An Apt resume and practicing mock interviews are a must. But more important is to understand if the role is in line with your career aspirations or not.
领英推荐
Many a times we apply randomly to the roles without even thinking if the role is adding any value to our overall career growth or not. It’s very important to have a long-term career planning rather than just focusing on short term next job in hand.
So, hire a career counsellor who can wear all the hats of a resume writer, career counsellor and conduct mock interview as well. That will be one complete package deal to help you plan the next role better.
Networking Platform
A strong networking platform like LinkedIn is a strong foundation that gives you an opportunity to connect with people of your domain and industry who have already proved themselves and can be your mentors to guide you through.
Just following their journeys carefully can also help you decide how you should plan your career well. But make sure yoru Linkedin profile is optimized and updated for them to feel like connecting with you as well.
You can also use a networking platform to find referrals, recommendations, or endorsements that can boost your credibility and visibility. You can also use a networking platform to join groups, forums, or events that are relevant to your job search and career goals.
In a nutshell
A Good resume +
A strong LinkedIn profile +
A fantastic LinkedIn Network AND
A Great Career Coach
Is a key to a great career ahead.
