Tackling the Advertised Market

Description

Applying for jobs that are advertised can be a time-consuming and lonely activity. You can spend a whole day filling in an application form or editing your CV, only for your beautiful application to disappear into a black hole: you never hear back and never get any feedback or guidance… let alone encouragement!

We advocate treating this activity as a full-time job. You can research, apply, market yourself and move on to the next job application ‘project’ during ‘office’ hours that you set yourself. With Proteus, our experienced career consultants work to encourage your techniques, discipline and motivation. Don’t suffer alone when you don’t have to. We’re here to help.

This session covers the following topics:

1. Be Professional When Applying For Advertised Jobs
2. Be Thorough In Your Approach To The Advertised Market
3. Be Timely In Your Response To Advertised Jobs
4. Covering email (letter) in response to an advertised job

This session has another version depending on whether you include the associated in-depth homework:

Version 2: How to make your LinkedIn profile work for you.
