Thinking Outside the Box When Job Searching

A job search doesn’t have to be that template process of sending off a CV with a cover letter and waiting for a positive response. Instead there is much more you can be doing, and it just requires a different approach.

If you’re inexperienced and looking for a first start in an industry then you have to know what it is about and what it expected. This means experiencing it, otherwise you will not know what to write in your CV and cover letter.

Work experience and volunteering in that industry can give you a god idea, wand building contact over the phone, or by email can also help. A lot of the time when it comes to gaining a job its ‘who you know and the more people you know in a your ideal industry the better, and if you can remain active when you’re applying for jobs whilst learning form mentors then you’ll have a much better chance of gaining that desired job.
