So you’ve just graduated and now it’s time to find that perfect career you’ve always dreamed about. Or maybe you just want to look for another job but don’t know how to begin the job hunt.
Where do you start? Do you pick up your local newspaper, flip through the classifieds and circle the interesting jobs with a red pen? Or do you print off a stack of resumes and start canvassing the neighbourhood?
While both are legitimate ways to find yourself somewhere to work, they’ve become dated approaches to getting the job you want.
Finding a job out of post-secondary can be a tough time for many recent graduates. Often making the transition from school to joining the workforce isn’t something we’ve prepared for or even been taught about.
