Looking For A Job After Being Unemployed?

Unemployment can be a result of many different scenarios. Those who are in-between jobs, those who have been made redundant or let go and those who are just taking time off work. But whatever the reason, it can always be difficult to get back into work.

Here are 3 easy tips to follow and help you go from unemployed to employed!

Reconsider your options       

           

A reason as to why you might not be getting a new job is because you’ve been focusing on the wrong ones. A mistake lots of job seekers make is applying for roles they are not qualified for. To avoid this, read the job advert fully before applying. Match the job description to the skills and experience in your CV, then you can decide how well suited you are towards the potential role.

A string of job rejections is bound to leave you feeling more and more fed up. If this is the case, it could be time to consider a different direction. We’re not necessarily suggesting a complete career turnaround but applying for a different level or position within your current industry could be effective in helping you land a new job.

Remember: If past career choices aren’t relevant to the type of employment you seek now, use transferable skills and be as descriptive as possible when incorporating them into your job application.

Take on short-term rolesBe open to different opportunities. Closing yourself off and being very selective in the jobs you apply for will only prolong your unemployment. You will find that if you step outside of your comfort zone, more opportunities will arise.

Often at times of unemployment, you can feel despair, frustration and disappointment. Although these feelings are completely normal, they can still bring added pressure to secure employment. A good way to reduce these stresses is to consider temporary work. Temp work and short term contracts are a great way to fill some unemployment gaps and boost your CV in the meantime.

Revisit your CVMake sure your CV is up to scratch. Whilst you may currently be happy with how it looks and the content inside, there still could be room for improvement. It’s a good idea to have someone look over what you have already written and get their advice on any edits or additions that could be made.

TIP: Always adjust and change your CV according to the job you are applying for. If you submit the same job application to multiple different roles it shows a lack of care, interest and could potentially affect your job chances.

It is essential that in your CV you really emphasize the duties of previous roles and skills. The more information you put surrounding these areas the greater insight the hiring manager will have on what you can bring to the role.
