5 TIPS FOR JOB SEARCHING DURING COVID-19
If you are feeling concerned about the impact of COVID-19 on your job-search process, here are some tips to keep you moving forward.
1. Keep looking - people are still hiring! Do your research to know which industries are most impacted, and manage your expectations. Hiring may take longer in some industries than others.
2. Use LinkedIn regularly for up-to-date information on how the pandemic is impacting job searching/hiring practices. Use hashtags to search for relevant information (#gethired #hiringnow #jobsearch #remotejobs).
3. Grow your network by connecting with and following people and organizations on social media channels. For networking tips, check out this article.
4. Tailor your resume for each position you apply for using keywords from job descriptions. Focus on quality of applications over quantity of applications.
5. Connect with a CAS Career Coach for support in your job search. Schedule an appointment on MyPLAN.
