8 Major mistakes job seekers make
Updated: Jun 27, 2021
Job search
Rely solely on job boards for opportunities
No online presence - if you’re not online or you’re not optimised for the right keywords you won’t be found
Ineffective networking - networking is not just telling your contacts that you’re looking for a job and giving them your resume.
Resume
Lack of a good profile summary - it needs to speak to what you can do for the company.
Clearly indicate your duties at the various companies
Interview
Lack of rapport - people hire people they like and feel comfortable around. Rapport means building a connection with someone else.
Unprepared and unfamiliar with the company - do you’re research and understand the employers business.
Talking way too much in the interview and not answering the questions.
