It seems the Christmas and New Year break is a time for many to reassess their current situation with ‘find a new job’ being a common feature on New Years resolution lists…
Traffic to job sites along with applications typically tend to swell in January with people returning from their summer vacations ready to look for their next career move – motivated by a need for change, more money, a bigger challenge or simply realising they simply can’t stand to stay another day in their current role!
While there seems to be more jobs advertised this month compared to last, there are also more job seekers in the market – so how can you make your self stand out above the crowd?
Preparation and presentation is the key – spend time updating your resume, tailor it to the roles you are applying for and be sure to proof read it. Before going to an interview research the company you are applying to and practice answering the kinds of questions you are likely to be asked as well as thinking of some questions you would like to ask your prospective employer. Finally always turn up to interviews confident, on time, well groomed and dressed appropriately for the type of role you applying to.
