Job Hunting – What would you do to get a job?

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009


I was reading The Sunday Times at the weekend as my two new sites www.cvsolutions.ie and www.interviewsolutions.ie got a mention in the careers section. I was commenting on the job market in Ireland with focus on temporary positions. I stated that these were a viable option for jobseekers out of work and could offer positive outcomes in a number of ways. Temporary assignment will generate an income, it exposes you to an employer which could potentially lead to other options and finally it takes pressure of the jobseeker. Many jobseekers fail at interview because they are desperate to land the job – having “a job” dilutes this.

On the subject of job hunting what would you do to land a job?

The same paper commented about a lady in New York who lost her job. She struggled to get a new one. She started to think it was the way she looked that was affecting you job hunting. She spent $3,500 on botox injections and laser treatment and guess what? A few weeks later she landed a job. A leading plastic surgeon has actually introduced a “job fighter package”.
