Tips for Marketing Your Resume On-line
Responding to job leads on the Internet can be tricky, that is why we have listed tips to assist you with this important task.
1) Note the date the job was posted on an Internet site. Your chances of securing an invitation for an interview are dramatically increased when you are among the first to respond.
2) Limit the number of websites you use to apply for positions. Try to use manageable and profession/industry specific websites, go to the job search tab for Internet job sites by industry. General purpose and well known websites tend to generate a greater amount of traffic which often means more competition and more work for the employer.
3) Use appropriate e-mail addresses and check your email account daily.
4) Join professional organizations and sign up for their job listings. Recruiting executives look to professional organizations as resources.
5) Sign up with professional publication websites, many employers often place ads through their sites or have direct links to their career pages.
6) Keep a log of where and when you send out your job response emails, the easiest way to do this is by creating a new folder in your email manager and storing all of your sent emails under your new job folder. |
