Start by asking yourself honestly what skills and experience you have. Think about the skills you have developed in the jobs you have had before, and in your life outside of work. Employment skills and experience Ask yourself the following questions to think about skills you have developed, including those built up in jobs you have had before (if you had any): · did you develop any skills that will be useful in the job you're looking for? · have you worked as part of a team? · did you need to share information with others? · did you follow or give instructions well? · do you like working at regular times / in the same place? · are you a good timekeeper? · are you more practically or theoretically minded? · do you have IT skills? · did you get any qualifications? Personal and social skills Ask yourself the following questions about life outside work: · do you get on well with people? · are you part of a team, (for example, a sports or quiz team)? · what are your spare time activities? Of course, the job you have in mind will impose some extra requirements. Employers as a rule hire people who fit the job, who have a lot of skills and can perform many different tasks. Certain school-leaving qualifications might be needed.
There are a number of ways you can search for jobs: through jobcentres, through newspapers, on the internet, by registering with recruitment agencies, in trade journals, through friends and other people you know. Search the internet Many companies advertise jobs on the internet through their own websites, recruitment websites or online job boards owned by newspapers. Local newspapers Find out which day the local paper comes out and the days it advertises jobs. Newspapers also keep you up to date on which companies are moving into the area and which are expanding. You can use this information to apply to those companies before they advertise to see if there are any jobs available. You may want to contact a company for more details about a job after reading an article in the local press. Register with a recruitment agency Recruitment agencies advertise short and long-term jobs and some specialise in particular areas of work. If you register with the relevant agencies in your local area you’ll be kept up to date on the latest vacancies available. Word of mouth People you know can give you useful information about job hunting. It’s worth talking to them about the type of work you’re looking for, your skills and experience. They may know about a suitable vacancy or think of you when they hear about vacancies in the future. They may also be able to put in a good word for you at the company where they work. Approaching employers A large number of jobs are never advertised, so it is worthwhile contacting companies to ask if they have any vacancies. A benefit of doing this is that you’re not competing against a large group of people, like you would if the job was advertised. Employers are used to people asking questions about jobs, so if they can find somebody without advertising it saves them time and money. Online networks Some employers now use social network sites such as Facebook and Twitter to recruit new staff. To take advantage of this, make sure you’ve signed up with a relevant social networking site and create a profile that will impress potential employers. The most successful jobseekers are people who don't give up in their search and know all the places to look for work. 3.

To find the job you want you need to look at your skills and the type of job you want to do. You then need to plan how you will go about looking for it.
The financial side should be looked at as well as the attractions of different careers. Choose the possibilities which sound right for you. But be aware of the fact that there are "dream jobs" which almost everyone wants to get. Limiting yourself to just one job possibility might prove dangerous. Avoid being inflexible, think in terms of alternatives – this will certainly improve your chances.
