How to Start a Job Search: Get Organized

Start by organizing your workspace and setting up a professional email if needed. Record a courteous and professional voicemail message. Set realistic job search goals, such as applying for five jobs daily and attending one networking event monthly. Regularly update your iHire profile and explore different industry-focused sites.

 

Clarify Your Objective

Understand your career goals before beginning your job search. Utilize resources like iHire’s Career Clarity Workbook and Career Explorer tool. Conduct a SWOT analysis to understand your strengths and skills.

 

Prepare Your Resume & Cover Letter

Use iHire’s AI job search tools to create your resume and cover letter. Ensure they are updated with accurate contact information, current roles, and relevant skills.

 

Strengthen Your Personal Brand & Online Presence

Scrub your social media accounts of any potentially damaging content and update your privacy settings. Ensure your LinkedIn profile is comprehensive and includes a professional photo. Develop and practice an elevator pitch to highlight your career achievements.

 

Level Up Your Interviewing Skills

Thoroughly research the company and role. Practice answering common interview questions and prepare thoughtful questions to ask. Be ready for different interview formats and follow up with a thank you email afterward.

 

Get Ready for Salary Negotiations

Research the market rate for your role and be prepared to negotiate. Consider the entire compensation package, not just the salary. Most candidates who counteroffer receive additional benefits or salary – just be sure to approach negotiations strategically and respectfully.
