Mistakes Which You Should Avoid While Job Hunting

There are innumerable things that you need to do if you want good and stable jobs in Pakistan in this economy. Unemployment is a serious concern and many people thrive to get job. There is always a discussion what you should do to get jobs in Pakistan but let’s see what are the few mistakes which you should avoid if you want to be successful in your job hunt.

Your CV/ resume is very important as this is the first thing which connect you with the employers and hiring managers and as you know the first impression is the last impression so it’s time to edit your resume and putting your best qualifications and skills upfront, but those skills which are most relevant to the jobs for which you are applying as it will e easy for the company to see how you can be beneficial for them.

Another common mistake which people do is that they don’t do research on the company. Believe me it can be most dangerous and most embarrassing mistake as it’s not sensible that you did not know the company for which you wish to working for. You should be up to date with their business or at least in which area you are going to interview. Hiring mangers appreciate those people who have done some research on them as it depicts that you are serious about doing this job.

Don’t forget to brush up your online presence as companies who want to hire you can check your online profiles, so if you have a LinkedIn account then it’s the time to update it. Your facebook profile should also be professional and here is a tip that you should make different professional and personal Face book profiles.

Don’t be over stressed over a single job call. If you have not got a call back from the company you applied for, just follow up once and then move on with your job research and apply for other companies. Your enthusiasm and boost level should not decrease and you should not be depressed and thinking that what’s wrong with you. There is nothing wrong with you, maybe that company is looking something different for that seat. Try to live your life as normal and don’t be too much stressed as a call for job can take weeks to arrive.

It’s up to how the interview goes whether you get the job or not so you should have balance in your personality as don’t look too shy and neither too bossy as both of these traits will become a hurdle for you to get jobs in Pakistan.  Don’t badmouth your previous company and never talk about irrelevant things. You can ask questions from your interviewer as there is no harm in it but try to do everything by being in the limits.

Don’t drain your energies over job listings and online recruitment agencies. You should know your limits as you can take some time off in your job searching. It’s really important to have potential connections with different company employees as they can help you to get a job and you will see that you have bumped in an actual vacancy which is not even listed online.
