Attract a Job With the Magnet of Your Skills

"People cannot be expected to learn one expertise and just apply it routinely in a job. Your expertise is in steadily renewing your knowledge base and extending it to new areas. That lifelong cycle of learning really is the foundation of the new information organization and economy."
- George Gilder

Attracting a job is not that easy and you have to almost master the law of attraction. You have identified your skills and realized in what kind of environment you blossom, and identified the organizations in the geographical area of your choice, you are ready to start your adventurous journey of success. The following tips will help you to identify your job and put you on the path of success.

• Information about jobs and vacancies is available abundantly on the internet in job sites such as career builder, naukri, timesjobs, gisajobs etc.

• You have to work hard to find a job. You cannot find a job sitting at home hoping something will happen and you will be given a job. Get out of your comfort zone and keep meeting people.

• Success lies in getting up just one more time than you fail. With every 'No' you face, you come closer to the 'Yes'.

• Always, go after the small organizations, those with less than 15 employees. As many of the older organizations are cutting their jobs, small companies are creating more jobs, where two-thirds of the new jobs come from small new enterprises.

• Meet at least two employers a day and spend at least six hours a day in your job hunt.

• Look as neat and alert as you can at all times. You never know whom you will meet and perhaps recommend you.

• When calling on employers, ask for fifteen minutes and do not stay one minute longer.

• Do not be a job-beggar in the employer's office but as a resource person.

• Do not forget to submit your resume with covering letter highlighting your knowledge, skills and abilities.

• After every interview, send a thank you note in your own handwriting that every night to those you talked to, thanking them for seeing or helping you.

• Do not take up jobs which you don't like and altogether unsuited to you, unless you absolutely must.

• You have to practice to demonstrate your abilities before your prospective employer. You must think of someway of meeting the person with the power to appoint you.

Finally, your attitude in presenting and approaching your prospective employer is of high importance to achieve your goal of grabbing a job of your choice.
