Welcome To Job Search

So, you’re looking for a job! You’ve studied hard, learned a lot, and now you’re ready to put it all to work. But how do you make the transition from school to work? How do you make that transition from your current job to the one in the career field you’ve been working toward?

You know what you’ve learned, you know the sum of your experience, and you know what you can do. Many times though, during the self-evaluation process we overlook many of the valuable skills that employers are looking for. Put yourself in the shoes of a prospective employer. What do you think they are looking for in a new employee? What will impress them when they first meet you? Your personality, dress, grooming, handshake, posture, and eye contact are some of the intangibles that may mean the difference between being offered the job or even a second interview. Beyond the intangibles are your technical training, academic achievement, and the experience you’ve had that qualifies you for the job. All of these things go together in presenting yourself as the best candidate for the job.
