How to Get and Keep a Job - Week 7 – Wrap Up

Wednesday, November 14, 2012

Welcome to week 7 - Special Edition of Lets Get Working called How to Get and Keep a Job. This week we are discussing not giving up and Workplace modifications.

Apply for many jobs so that you get a 'yes'.
You need to find the right fit - the right person that will say 'yes'.
Getting a job is a job in itself.

Remember: Every 'no' is one step closer to a 'yes'!

You are not alone, videos can help you, email me, friends, family, - get them all to look for you
Research different jobs, ask people what they do.

Have plenty of resumes – send me your resume, I’ll tweak it and send you some copies.
Email me your phone number and I'll ring you and we can chat about your job hunting goals.
