Tips for Getting Job calls
Friends many of you tried of posting resume and search jobs but I may not received any job call or received few job calls that also not relevant to your field of experience.
This guide will help the newbie who is searching for jobs.
1. Create your keyword rich Resume
Many of you create a very eye catching resume but jobseeker fails to understand that this resume will work only if some employer saw the resume. So you need to understand how to make your resume appear in first page of a jobsites resume search engine.
To make your resume appear to the employer resume search, first you need to know what keywords your potential employer will use. Let say your are a MBA marketing professional looking for marketing job and so want your resume to be appear to all employers who is look for marketing guys.
To achieve this you first analysis what could be the possible search term used by the employer, in the above example the employer may use MBA, marketing, MBA marketing. So stuff this keyword in your resume and also keyword column in the jobsite.
If you effective did this means your resume will appeared to potential employers.
2. Select the jobsite & posting the resume.
Many of us post only on major jobsites only but there are lots of small and niche job sites (jobsite like jobsite for programmer, jobsite for freshers) are there.
These jobsite also attract small but potential employers and mainly consultancy which generally head hunt for Big names in the industry. So search and create a good list of jobsite; minimum of 30 such job sites will be good to start.
To find these jobsite search google & yahoo using the keywords like jobs, job site, freshers jobs, freshers job portal and keyword related to your industry.
At the end of the process you will have some 30 to 50 job sites. Create jobseeker account in these job site using the same email id, username and password in those sites. In most of the job site, resume posting is free so don’t worry about that. Once account is created in these jobsite, post the job site friendly resume to all these sites and save the jobsite list and login detail in your computer.
3. Update the resume and outsmart the Jobsite
Many of you think that after posting the resume that we have to wait for month to get calls from employee and you think that since no big change in your career there is no need to update the resume.
If you know how these job sites display the resume to employer, you will change you mind. Let say an employer looking for programmer, what he will do his he will type these keyword in resume search box in jobsite and then the jobsite look for the keyword in the database and display the result to employer in the new/update resume first. So the employer only focus on first few search result page and call only those candidate, even though employer need and you qualification match you chance of getting call is rare.
So create different resume format and post that new resume once in a month to the job sites. This will make you to get more call from employer and you will have good chance of getting best job opportunity in the industry.
Even freshers who you follow these steps can easily attract the employer and convert those resume posting to job calls.
