Eight ways to sidestep hidden job－hunting hazards

Errors in judgement for job－hunting can prevent even the finest candidate¹⁾ from landing the job she or he wants．The following eight  simple rules can help you avoid such mistakes．

    1. BEGIN YOUR JOB SEARCH BEFORE THE PRESSURE IS REALLY ON．

Desperate²⁾ candidates are much less attractive．And if you need a job fast，you may have to accept the first offer you get

２．CONDUCT A COMPLETE SEARCH．

Touch all the following bases to increase your chances of getting the job and the salary you want：

１）．apply to companies ２）．ask your friends and relatives about jobs ３）．answer newspaper ads ４）．apply at private employment agencies and the state employment services  ５）．take civil service tests．

３．SET REALISTIC GOALS．

Make sure you aren’t pursuing conflicting goals．Don’t expect miracles³⁾．Establish a priority⁴⁾ for your goals．If getting a job quickly is essential，realise that your needs probably rule out getting a high salary．Review your goals periodically．If what seemed a realistic goal at the start appears unattainable⁵⁾ １２ weeks later，change your goal．

４．BE WILLING TO INVEST IN YOURSELF．

If your résumé typed on a portable is less impressive than one typed on a full size electronic typewriter，the little money saved may not be worth it．You will have a better chance to succeed if you look successful．

５．REVISE YOUR STRATEGIES AS  NEEDED．

Don’t continue to send out a résumé or an application letter that has gotten no results．And don’t keep pursuing a position if it obviously isn’t attainable．If you discover that you aren’t as marketable as you assumed you would be，revise your résumé and your goals．

６．TRY TO GET EVERY JOB OFFER YOU CAN．

Even if you aren’t sure you want a certain job，getting an offer may make you more attractive to a company you want to work for．The job you are interviewing for may not appeal to you so much now but could prove to be your most appealing alternative later．Interviews enable you to see how good you are at making people want you．If you get an offer，you’ll know you have mastered the technique that get you other offers．Besides，getting a job offer can build you up psychologically．This boost may be just what you need to succeed in your next interview，for a job you want more．

７．FOLLOW UP EVERY LEAD YOU GET．

The least likely contact may be the one that gets you a job or leads you to the contact that does．

８．DON’ T OVERDO IT．

Trying to do too much at once may be a mistake．Be sure you schedule enough time to follow up every lead and every application．Getting a job is a matter of planning and persistence⁶⁾．It isn’t a race．

繞過求職障礙的八要訣

求職過程中的錯(cuò)誤判斷可能會(huì)使最好的候選者落選，得不到她或他想干的工作。下面的８條要訣能幫你避免這些錯(cuò)誤。

1、提前開始求職調(diào)查，不要等事到臨頭再動(dòng)手。

拼命想求職的人的魅力差多了。而如果你急需求職，你可能不得不接受找到的第一份工作。

2、進(jìn)行徹底的求職調(diào)查。

要想增加得到理想工作和薪水的機(jī)會(huì)，你得去做下列各項(xiàng)基本工作：

1)（向各公司求職）；2)（向親友探詢就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)）；3)（應(yīng)答報(bào)紙上的招聘廣告）；4)（向私人職業(yè)介紹所和國(guó)家就業(yè)服務(wù)中心申請(qǐng)）；5)參加公務(wù)員考試。

3、制定現(xiàn)實(shí)的目標(biāo)。

確保自己追求的目標(biāo)互不沖突。別指望奇跡出現(xiàn)。訂目標(biāo)時(shí)要有主次之分。如果急需找到一份工作是主要目標(biāo)，那就要認(rèn)識(shí)到：你的這份需求有可能使你得不到較高的薪水。定期檢查所定目標(biāo)，如果起初訂的目標(biāo)好像是現(xiàn)實(shí)的，１２周后卻顯示出無法實(shí)現(xiàn)，那就改變目標(biāo)。

4、要舍得在自己身上投資。

如果用手提式打字機(jī)打出來的求職簡(jiǎn)歷，不如正規(guī)的電子打印機(jī)打出來的給人印象深刻，省下那點(diǎn)錢是不值得的。你若看上去很成功，那你成功的可能性就大。

5、必要時(shí)調(diào)整求職策略。

不要接連不斷地發(fā)出得不到回音的求職簡(jiǎn)歷或求職信件；不要老是追求一個(gè)明顯不可能得到的職位。如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)自己并不像想像的那么有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力，那就修改求職簡(jiǎn)歷和目標(biāo)。

6、盡量爭(zhēng)取得到每一個(gè)就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)。

即使你定不下來到底想做哪種工作，得到一次就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)也可能使你想要去效力的那個(gè)公司對(duì)你另眼相看。你去面試的那份工作現(xiàn)在可能對(duì)你沒有多大吸引力，但以后說不定是最吸引你的一項(xiàng)選擇。面試使你認(rèn)識(shí)到你有能力讓人想要雇用你。如果你得到了一次就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)，你就會(huì)明白你掌握了能使你得到別的就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)的技巧。再者，得到一次就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)能使你在心理上變得成熟起來。這種提高或許正是你為下次能得到更理想的工作而使面試獲得成功所需要的。

7、緊追你得到的每一條線索。

看起來最不抱什么希望的接觸沒準(zhǔn)就能幫你找到一份工作，或者能幫你進(jìn)行另外的接觸，找到工作。

8、不可過分。

要想一下子辦過多的事可能是個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。一定要安排足夠的時(shí)間對(duì)每條線索緊追不舍，密切注意每一求職申請(qǐng)的情況。求職就業(yè)需要計(jì)劃加毅力，它不是賽跑。
