Are you good? How to look really good in the job market.

You have been in college, campus or in a small job or even a boring job and now you have been looking for a good job. It has been long and nothing is forthcoming. Just know one thing it's time to get serious. As you know college is about prepping yourself for that dreaded real world that you've heard so much about. No need to fear-no matter where you are in your college or career, it's never too early or late to start planning. 

Where should you start to mould your career? Basically the answer is college or university. You need to make sure you take advantage of your time at college and mold yourself into the most successful, well-rounded student you can be. No matter where you are in your college, you should make yourself look good. If you did not start your career in college, it is also not too late.

Straight on when you get out of college you need a plan or strategy to get into the job market. It can be hard to get a job these days. The earlier you start planning the better for you. Whatever career path you choose will be filled with competition from some very smart and accomplished people. Having a plan of action is the best way to get where you want to be. How then can you do it? It is simple:
  1. Challenge yourself in class: The simplest place to start boosting your college achievements is in the classroom. One of the best parts of college is being able to choose your own classes. It's tempting to take it easy with nothing but intro courses, but intro courses give you little more than subject overviews. Most of the time, they won't be a great indicator of how more intensive courses in that subject will be taught. Instead, challenge yourself by taking as many hard courses as you can handle. You're paying a lot of money and time for a top-notch education, so why not take the most challenging and rewarding courses available to you? But be careful not to blindly choose whatever class you feel like taking. Having a sense of order in your course selection is key. 
  2. Excel in extra - curricular: You may be under the false impression that clubs are for losers and nerds. That notion couldn't be more wrong. Clubs look fantastic on a CV. But you know what looks even better on a CV? Becoming the president of a club that you started. This not only shows that you're passionate and pro-active about a certain issue, but also that you're able to lead your peers and unite them in a common cause. Find that one issue that just isn't covered by the rest of the run-of-the-mill student orgs and get on it. It's as easy as filling out an application, talking to the student activities office and getting some of your friends on board.
  3. Publish something: Seriously, it works. There are always opportunities arising to get your writing published. Whether it's an opportunity in the campus newspaper, a piece of creative writing in a literary magazine, or a political diatribe in an activist publication, you've got options. Find out which publications are accepting submissions, talk to the editors, and write away. But the fun isn't just for journalism students. The most important thing here is to write about something that you're passionate about, and write it well. Now is the time to dust off your writing skills and put them to good use. You've certainly got opinions to express, and there are plenty of venues in which you can do so.  Almost every job requires some writing skill - show your writing chops in a finance - job interview, and you could be making up ground on your so - so math grades.  



If you did not take advantage of your college or university life to do any of the above, it is not too late. When you are faced with different career challenges, just remind yourself how capable you really are. You got into high school, college or university and did what you wanted after all. All those are achievements and if you find comfort in them, then go ahead an achieve the future that you want and deserve.

3 ways to make it hard for employers to resist you.

In a highly competitive job market, every job seeker needs a way to stand out from the crowd. But what separates the great from the good and makes a particular candidate too irresistible to ignore? Often, it is one of the following 3 attributes:

1.   Able to prove your worth: It is one thing to call yourself a good communicator or an effective leader, and another to back those claims with proof. Employers want to know what you will bring to the table if hired. Candidates who can provide tangible examples of successes at their current and past jobs will certainly stand out. More and more employers simply aren’t interested questions like, ‘if you were an animal, which one will you be?’ They are increasing interested in seeing if the candidate understands the value that he or she is expected to bring to the employer once hired.
Most applicants for commission-driven jobs can demonstrate competency and quantify value by discussing how they met quotas, exceeded sales objectives or enlisted new clients. Candidates in other fields who are accustomed to thinking this way may have more difficulty, but trying to do so may ultimately land them a job. To come up with examples, it might help to examine your CV and performance reviews first or even internship records. What have you accomplished that sets you apart from the others? How can those achievements be applied to this job you are applying for? Is there a way to quantify or explain your achievements in terms of time or money saved, output or improvement? It can be especially effective to search for examples that are relevant to the position and of great interest to the employer. For example, a candidate who demonstrates knowledge of world market tends to grab the attention of a global company. Examining the job advertisement for keywords can offer clues as to what might be most significant
2.   Demonstrating more than simple knowledge of the company: An acceptable candidate looks at the company’s website before heading for the interview. An irresistible one learns more. To stand out, you need to show that your research on the company was a mile and not an inch deep. You need to show that you understand the company quite well. Annual reports and financial statements can help. Likewise, check for any recent news events or press releases about the organization. Knowledge of small details such as the company’s motto or vision, its products and services, competitors, stock price, and senior management as well as the company history make you stand out.
3.   Enthusiasm: If you have taken the time to demonstrate your worth and to do your research on the company, chances are that you are well on your way to becoming the final candidate an employer can’t resist. You are truly an enthusiastic candidate. How does enthusiasm shine through? First I believe in the candidate’s interest in the interview itself. It reflects the excitement with which they will undertake their duties once they are offered the job. Questions that are not only about the job the candidate would be doing but also about the job in the future show enthusiasm. Candidates who ask the interviewer how they may expand the position’s responsibilities demonstrate enthusiasm. So are those who show interest in upward mobility, those who want to move up and why the position they are being interviewed for is vacant. Also perceived as enthusiastic are those who show interest on how they will fit in with the group to which they are assigned. Let a potential employer know that you have spent time learning about this particular job.

Chances are that your genuine excitement could become contagious. Companies love to hire people who have passion and enthusiasm for a position rather than a candidate who sees the position as just another job.
