Get LinkedIn references
LinkedIn makes soliciting references and testimonials, as well as displaying them, truly painless. These recommendations go beyond endorsements.
Properly read job advertisements
When reading the job advertisements, some applicants are under pressure. It is important to read the phrases of the job advertisements very carefully.
Cover Letters are important
Though the popularity of social profiles and resume scanning are on the rise, you should submit a cover letter while responding to a job opening.
Your profile photo is important
With a good application photo, an applicant can make a serious and competent impression before the first encounter with the interviewer.
Optimise your job search
The general idea is that the academics enjoy a good reputation in the labor market and have no problems finding a good job. The reality is quite different!
You might be under-qualified
About 15% of all applicants are under-qualified, but rest assured that the company values the competencies you demonstrated during interviews.
Properly engage with recruiters
The relationship between a candidate and recruiter is simple. The candidate is looking for a role, and the recruiter is looking for individuals to fill a role.
Write compelling cover letters
In many cases, a cover email for an application is more than or at least equally as important as a covering letter or CV.
