Here are some weird ways to find jobs
Okay, you've applied to every online job board, including Monster, CareerBuilder, and HotJobs. You've made follow-up calls and networked to the point of exhaustion. Every Sunday, you pick up the newspaper and apply for every job in your field, with little to no luck. So, here are a few odd methods for finding jobs. You should provide half of your CV. Look for a company where you would want to work. Write a strong cover letter that explains why you are a good fit for the position and includes a link to your CV. Do not enclose a résumé in the mail or seal it. They'll think the résumé got lost in the mail.. They'll call and have a talk with you. Sell yourself without remorse.
Make use of direct mail's effectiveness. Identify five to ten businesses. Ask your contact network whether they know anyone who works at any of the firms on your list in a letter.Send your CV to a contact who says they know someone on your list and ask them to forward it to that person, or seek permission to send it yourself.
Chain Letter through Email
Make a list of 20 firms you'd want to work for and send an email to everyone you know asking if anyone knows someone who works for them. If they do, ask them to contact you so you may ask for a reference.Finally, ask them to forward your email to 10 other people. If you're currently working, though, don't do this!
Make A Booklet and Distribute It
Make a pamphlet with information about your industry and distribute it. Everyone appreciates free knowledge, and you've demonstrated your skill by providing it. Distribute the booklet through email and on newsgroups where recruiters can view it.
Human Resources should be contacted.
Isn't that insane? Make a call to the company's human resources department.. Inquire about the outside agency or third-party recruiting business they work with. They'll inquire as to why you wish to know. Tell them you're seeking a suggestion because their company isn't searching for someone with your skill set right now. The agency may be interacting with other companies. They could want you to come in for an interview. At the very least, you'll acquire a lead. They'd like to avoid paying the agency fees. Being suggested also attracts extra attention. Thank them with a message.
These are guerilla methods that can help you get better outcomes. Keep your muscles toned for the next five inventive ideas.
