Contact Jobs
How to get a job through the web?
Not today that highlights the importance of having contacts. In the labor market, it's always good to meet other people from your area. Or, depending on your performance in any other area.
Social events have always been a great way to meet people, especially when they have to do with his work, such as conventions, corporate parties and others. The point is that we can not always count on to form contacts in these situations - and, in the crunch, we have hardly anything to look like someone. In the era of Internet, e-mail makes things easier, like a good Google search can do miracles, but sometimes the ideal tools are created specifically for this medium.
1) Social Networking
The main point here is LinkedIn contacts. Even if you think you do not have many friends or acquaintances that may help you, you'll see that with this tool has many more contacts than you think, whether for a business contact, or look for a job opportunity. LinkedIn is a social network entirely dedicated to work: you create your profile, fill your data and adds everything about you that may be relevant to the professional world: historical studies, jobs, skills and all courses you have done.
The next step is to locate people you know or want to know. Connecting to them, they form the so-called "connections" that are created from the point that you meet this person. You were co-workers, studies, friends, acquaintances ... All this weighs in the decision of others.
Now, okay, you have your contacts, how to get them? Firstly, there is the search for job openings and companies. It is easy to find something in your area and even that does not locate, you can find the contact you want to send the company your resume. Want something more guaranteed? Visit the profile of your friends and see the connections of the same - there you'll see who else they connect and you get an advantage to approach. You can tell your friend that you submit within the same platform, to other contacts - the famous IQ, "Who says' so-called real world.
2) Indication of friends
If you already have a job but still need to make a contact, the tool is as useful as places to locate, if not more. Here, it is easy to find by area professionals and business. Need a contact with that director unreachable? Hopefully, he will have a LinkedIn profile and you can send a message, this is not a means of direct contact. This usage turns out to be especially strong for those working in the commercial sector. Optionally, LinkedIn also has advanced bills paid, to facilitate contact with messages, improve search results and allow the organization of contacts. Before thinking about spending money with one of these, however, it is worth getting used to the basic use of the tool, since for most people is not necessary to use any of the advanced options.
We can also cite some companies that provide jobs for free on the web, such as "Vagas de Empregos" in Brazil.
Social media are also a great way to get contacts. If you have a group of followers with some activity on Twitter, it's easy to pass on requests for contacts, job opening, or even ask about them. Through the practice of Retweets or reproduction of tweets, many people end up knowing of the opportunity in a short time. Already Orkut, for example, also has several communities that reproduce often vacancies in several areas.

However, one certainty we have is to have the best curriculum can not be sufficient, if the strategy of seeking employment is weak or nonexistent
One of the concepts that a job seeker should keep in mind is the importance of marketing personnel. It is essential that you know it is a product and you should know how to sell in the market. To position itself as a product that must be "sold" to build a strategy to convince companies that recruiting is the ideal candidate and should be hired. Create a plan to achieve the goal of getting a job means you should know where it currently stands and where to go. Only then will draw up plans and strategies aimed at the exact point where you arrive.
The strategy for seeking employment is as important as a financial plan for a company. As the financial plan that identifies and controls the resources of capital available, the job search strategy sets targets for their personal and professional life.
Develop a strategy to get a job now so these five points:

- Create / maintain a network of contacts
- Job Interview Preparation
Self Assessment / Diagnosis of the strengths
It is essential to identify and list its key technical skills (what it knows) and social skills (qualities). Must do so in an honest and true to the outcome more accurately portray reality. This survey will enable you to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and understand the skills they have demonstrated throughout their professional life. You must try to write this self-examination in light spots and synthetic, so they can be included and posted on their curriculum.
This self-assessment process will be critical to differentiate itself through its promotional tools: Curriculum and letter / email of introduction. It also will allow you to be more convincing in the job interview.
Self-evaluation is of paramount importance because it is through this process that will be able to define its strategy for return to work, identify their strengths, what you do, what they like to do, areas in which both / no work either.
Preparation of the Curriculum
The curriculum is the card-of-visit and work. A quality curriculum is a fundamental tool that should gather specific information relevant and interesting about your skills, key achievements and experiences. Your career should be well written, true and properly structured to impress and convince an interviewer to ask you to attend a job interview.
It should highlight and highlight your skills and tailor them to the professional profile to be hired.
Try to customize each resume for each application and avoid formats such as European or other standardized curriculum that is available on the Internet. What you want above all is to differentiate themselves from their competitors and not be just another among many others!
Preparation of letter / email presentation
The letter or e-mail submission must always accompany the delivery of curriculum, whether in response to advertisements or unsolicited applications. The cover letter must disclose their interest in the position you are applying, as well as listing a series of arguments that will determine your choice for the job.
Should be focused on business needs and to reveal their motivation for the position you are applying. Even thinking he has a good curriculum should write a letter interesting, concise, with a clear message and that is inviting to read.
Create and maintain a network of contacts
Most employment opportunities is achieved through a network of contacts. Only a small percentage of success in obtaining employment is achieved by responses to ads, unsolicited applications or business recruitment / selection. The purpose of a network of contacts is to increase the chances of getting a job. To do so, should enable the development of new knowledge or explore your existing contacts. Some people have a lot easier to build relationships and know lots of people everywhere and others are more timid. However, anyone can create a good network of contacts, everything depends on the effort and dedication.
Job Interview Preparation
The main objective is fulfilled and now it's time for truth. The ultimate goal of a job interview is to get an offer for the company.
This last step should not be neglected and must invest time in preparing for the interview, namely:
- Collect as much information about the company and who summoned him;
- Train the initial greetings;
- Train your self-presentation in 1 minute;
- Training in verbal and nonverbal;
- Train the answers to questions that will be placed;
- Know what to do and not do the interview;
- Know how to end the interview
Remember that a bad interview, it will seriously compromise its position and hardly get a second chance when there are dozens of candidates out there waiting.
All the Best!!
