CV Advice -Job search strategies in Ireland



CV – Job Search Strategies – Newspapers

CV looking good so now all you need is to find the jobs and employers. There are many job search strategies available for jobseekers in Ireland. This fall into two categories -proactive strategies and reactive strategies. Searching newspapers would fall into the reactive strategies category. Although newspaper advertising is in decline you can still find many key employers advertising their jobs through this medium. I guess the good thing about the newspaper adverts is that you can just pick it up without the need of a computer.

There are a number of key publications if using this strategy.

Irish Independent – Although the paper carries job adverts on other days Thursday is the important day to read the Indo as they have a Jobs & Careers supplement. Loads of great jobs and excellent career articles.

Irish Times – Friday is Jobs day for the Times.

Sunday Papers – The Sunday Tribune, The Sunday Times and The Sunday Independent. Personally I do not think that there is anything new on a Sunday that you cannot find in the Indo on a Thursday and Times on a Friday.
