Revealed! 4 Ways To Ensure Your Don't Miss Your Dream Job

How many times have you come across a job that you know is perfect for you and you would definitely get it only for you to see that it has already expired? This happens quite a lot because you cannot be able to see every job that is posted daily.
This means then that so many people miss out on great job opportunities when they really don’t have to. So how do you ensure you don’t miss any more?

Here Are Some Of The Ways to Make Sure Your Dream Job Doesn’t Pass You By

1. Get Job Updates Via Social Media
You are probably always on social media every day so this should be quite easy. Follow the companies you want to work for on social media, you can also follow job websites. This is because they will always post the vacancies they have on either, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn or any other social media platform.
This way anytime they post about a job vacancy you are among the first people to find out about it. This is a great way to ensure you also avoid falling prey to job scams because if the company posted it then it is a legitimate job.
2. Keep up With Industry News
Ideally, you should already be doing this to stay informed about your field of choice. If not, then it is time you started. Not only is this a good opportunity for you to find out about new jobs, it also enables you to gain more skills and learn more about your field of work.
You can do this by going through the websites of organisations you wish to work for in order to learn more about how they work and in doing so you can come across information such as when their yearly graduate trainee program happens and how to get in.

Or maybe a company has decided to host a competition where candidates have to complete certain tasks in order to get jobs for example, ‘the presenter’
If you’re following these stories, you’ll immediately be aware of these types of opportunities and have the chance to pursue them.
3. Set Alerts
Another great asset to any job seeker is email alerts. You need to be able to get immediate alerts whenever a job is available in order to avoid seeing a job you qualify for after the deadline has passed.
All job posting websites have an option where you can subscribe to their email alerts. This way you get daily emails informing you of the jobs that were posted. Some companies have the same service where you will receive an email every time they post a job.
Some companies even offer you the chance to upload your CV on their careers page and you will receive an alert anytime a relevant position comes up.
Google alerts is also another tool you can use to get alerts on new jobs. All you have to do is pick keywords.
4. Get—and Stay—on the Radar
As shocking as it might be to learn this there are some people who don’t really have to struggle with job search. This is not because they know anyone particular in the organisation but because their skills are known.
Most people get contacted by companies and recruitment agencies and are asked to apply for positions or are invited for interviews. This is because; some already interviewed with the company before and dint get the job but they impressed the interviewer enough that they didn’t forget them.
Networking is also a great way to get companies and people to contact you for open positions.
If you continue to make networking a priority even while you’re happily employed, you’ll open yourself up to new relationships and future opportunities. You don’t have to mention that you’re looking out for jobs instead, focus on making connections and staying on the company’s radar. This way you will be remembered when a position comes up.
