Job fi nding Tips from the Bloomberg Business report Report

Take Chances

I started my full-time, one-year MBA program in July 2001, so you can imagine what my class' job pros-pects looked like after September 11 (really bad). Companies that were supposed to interview on-campus canceled and those that did inter-view had few, if any, jobs available. We were encouraged to network, but calling contacts only gets you so far in distressed economic times.

What can work, though, is getting in at the ground level. No, I don't mean through the mail room. Temporary work ("temping") can be a great way to introduce yourself to potential employers. It may not feel good to be making $10 per hour doing data entry for 8 hours a day, especially after you've worked hard to gain an advanced degree. But if you make a good impression with your new cli-ent, you could gain full-time employ-ment in a few months. Some compa-nies only hire staff starting in these entry positions, and once you've got-ten in the door as a temp, you can look at open in-house positions to which others won't have access. Even if it doesn't work out for long-term employment, at least you'll be pay-ing the rent instead of racking up the credit card bills while looking for a job.

Be Realistic

Understand that you may not get the title or pay that you want. It's great to be optimistic, and certainly you should apply for your dream job. But this is not a great time to try to jump from project manager to director-level when so many people with years of executive experience are losing their jobs. The competition out there is fi erce, and to succeed you need to consider jobs at all levels, especially if you have been out of the workforce for a few years. Many big companies

will require that you start at a lower level before jumping to any leader-ship position. Two of my previous

employers, Procter & Gamble (PG) and FedEx (FDX), typically require

all candidates to start small before moving into the big leagues.

Limitations of Networking

Professional networking sites like LinkedIn and the Business Ex-change are great ways to grow your base, especially when connecting with past colleagues or classmates. But these networks must be used wisely for best results. When I look at professional online forums, I see many people advertising their avail-ability. This is a fi ne way to meet fel-low job searchers, but truthfully, the majority of hiring managers are too busy to sort through these forums to fi nd potential candidates. Network-ing is great, but be mindful before spending hours surfi ng the Net for new friends and forums.

Revamp Your Résumé

One common mistake people make when writing their résumé is to fo-cus on themselves, their abilities, and their lives. Prospective employ-ees will often advertise that they are looking for "increased responsibility" or "great opportunities" with a new company.

Let me break it to you: Companies are not waiting around to off er you that dream job. They want to know what you have to off er them, not what you are hoping to gain. Quan-tify your accomplishments and high-light what you have done. Dem-onstrate that you understand the industry lingo and even sprinkle a few buzzwords into the mix.

Yes, it's rugged out there today, but you can increase your chances of gaining employment by thinking dif-ferently than all the other job search-ers. Best of luck in your job search! for further information check them out online at http://www.businessweek.com/stories/2008-12-02/tips-for-fi nding-employment-in-hard-times-businessweek-business-news-stock-market-and-fi nancial-advice
