Create a Schedule to Find Success in Your Next Job Search

Many job seekers find it useful to stick with a regular schedule during the job hunt. Not only does this maximize the overall number of opportunities that are available, but it makes it easier to adjust to your new hours when you finally do land that job.

1. Work on your resume and cover letter

Take some time each day – or even at the start of each week – to make adjustments to your resume and cover letter. More importantly, try to tailor your resume and cover letter to match each job opening. You’ll have a much better chance of landing a job if your documents are customized to the role as opposed to submitting a generic template that might not match the original job description.

2. Search for open jobs

Since this activity will take up the majority of your time, you should devote a large portion of your daily schedule to searching for new opportunities. There are plenty of resources to use – online job boards, social media, newspapers, magazines, and radio and television ads – that offer legitimate employment near you.

3. Speak with a recruiter

Don’t hesitate to make regular contact with a recruiter during the job hunt. This can be intimidating for some, especially if you’re new to the workforce or if you’re unsure about your goals, but a professional recruiter can help ease the stress of the job hunt in many different ways.

The best recruiters will locate new opportunities on your behalf, ensure that you’re qualified for each role, and even initiate contact on your behalf. Some even stick with you throughout the process and play an active role in your ongoing professional development.

4. Tap into your professional network

Many job seekers are seeing tremendous success by tapping into their professional networks. The ease of communication through email or social media makes it possible to connect with professionals in different disciplines from all around the world – and you never know where that next big opportunity will present itself.
