Job seeking advice

Looking for a new job can be exciting. The prospect of a new challenge, further developing your professional skillset, and having the opportunity to work with a new group of clients and colleagues, can be a momentous occasion.

However, the journey to your new job can be time-consuming and potentially frustrating. The good news is, it doesn’t have to be. Engaging the services of a recruitment company, like Asset Recruitment, can take the hassle out of your job hunting experience.

1. Talk to the experts

2. Write a winning CV
   A CV is often the very first impression your potential employer has of you, so make sure it’s a good one. Your CV should include basic information, such as your contact details. Make sure these are easily visible and that your email address is appropriate too. Provide a comprehensive analysis of your job experience history. At Asset Recruitment, we work with Sam Ware at HR on Tap, a CV preparation service to help you compile a successful CV.
3. Preparation is key
   For many job seekers, the face-to-face interview can be nerve wracking. But you can reduce these nerves with preparation. Research the company you are interviewing with, practice some sample questions, prepare your answers and have a few questions you’d like to ask.
4. Be patient
   It’s hard waiting but the recruitment process does take time. An employer will most likely to be interviewing several potential candidates before making a decision. However, there is no harm in following up with a positive email, thanking the interviewer for their time.
