Searching for a first time job or changing jobs
is usually an unpalatable experience for a lot of people because of the
likelihood of frustration and depression that comes with it.
The smart thing to do is to ask for advice to
make the experience less depressing but mistakes still occur with careful
planning and having the right connections. It is important you make the right
impression when hunting for a job.
360nobs.com shares some the five mistakes to
avoid whether you are new at searching for a job or you just want a job change. (read the full article from the link)
Begging For A Job
Even in desperation, it’s not recommended for you
to beg for a job. The employer already knows you need one since you sent a
résumé to them. If you also attended an interview, it already shows you’re
interested in the job they have to offer.
Instead of begging, focus on what you can do for
employers instead of putting your mind on what they have to offer you. The
minute they decide they are giving you the job, you can go on to tell them the
terms with which you intend to work with them.
The first thing to do is to get the job and
decide later on if you will stay or not. More so, if you come off as desperate,
chances are they will offer you a lower salary than they would have if you’re
not.
Not Having Focus
Searching for a new job can help you think about
changing your career. There’s a possibility that your old job or what you
studied in school is not something that you actually want and if you desire to
do something different, your job search period is the right time.
As such, it is important you set your goals and
go for it. Being successful at a job is mostly dependent on you loving what you
do. And human resource personnel know this. You should however avoid setting
vague goals because if you’re lacking in focus, there’s a chance that you won’t
be interested in anything available except to get on the payroll of available
companies. Separate the things that you should have and those you would love to
have.
