Job search strategies

IN A NUTSHELL...

A Recruitment Specialist explains:

"There is nothing wrong with deciding the organisation you want to work for and contacting them directly with your CV! It shows initiative. You can also contact recruitment agencies (we call this a  'speculative call') - invite yourself in for a coffee. We like meeting people who we can get jobs for and earn a fee!  Again, this shows initiative. And there are also the many job sites below. It is not called 'Job hunting' for nothing. Try to be different and stand out from the crowd. Send a letter, a card with your CV - people love to be surprised at ingenuity. Be brave!"
