The job market in 2010 is expected to be flooded with job seekers as a result of major restructuring and redundancies throughout the world. Candidates, as a result of fierce competition, need to use more innovative techniques for an effective job search. These include:
Professional Networking
Create and update your accounts on the social and professional networking websites such as FaceBook and LinkedIn. Jobs are advertised regularly on these websites and recruiters and hiring managers can be contacted personally.
Video Presentation
You Tube is a good medium where you can upload videos of your work and present your skills and abilities very effectively.
Personal Branding
This involves creating online profiles and blogging about your areas of interest. Create a blog site with your name and update it regularly. Email ids are also preferred to have your first and last names e.g. firstname.lastname@gmail.com
