You guys have heard it all before- oh the economy! It’s busted up, broken down, and has left people empty-handed and hopeless. This blog is for those of you on the job hunt- and it’s about doing your homework.
Of course, every industry is different. You can only do so much research on a cafe were you’re applying for a part-time job on the weekends (although you should still try). However, if you’re trying to get any kind of job (especially entry-level) within any kind of industry, you should know that everyone appreciates an applicant who has gone out of their way to google the company/organization/person they want to work for, has read up on history, and can tell their potenial employer in a cover leter or interview why the mission statement or goal of a company clicks with them. It makes you a much better candidate for whateever job you’re applying for if you just take the time to look up a company’s website and browse through it. Keep in mind- a little bit of research goes a long way.
Best of luck on your job hunt,
Seghel
