Finally, you’re now ready to really commit yourself to the challenge of finding your next career move, so here are some last minute top tips to keep you on the straight & narrow.
TIP 1 – Are you contactable?
Have you set up a personal email & mobile number to stay in touch with career alerts, job descriptions & interview details? Avoid very personal addresses & voicemail messages to ensure that you convey a professional image.
TIP 2 – Are you dressed to impress?
People do judge a book by its cover, so ensure that your appearance doesn’t detract from your interview performance – save your “out there” fashion, hair & make-up for Friday nights, Halloween or fancy dress parties.
TIP 3 – Are you available?
Unless you are facing redundancy, relocating or totally honest with your boss, attending interviews during working hours is just one of the challenges when finding a new position. Whilst most interviewers will try & accommodate early, late or lunchtime appointments, there will be situations where meetings have to take place between the hours of 9 to 5. Make sure that you keep some holiday or “time owed” in reserve for these occasions.
