2 Cover Letter Why do we need a cover letter? It's always a good idea to send your resume with a cover letter, or even better a cover letter tailored for a specific company. Sometimes using an untailored cover letter might be considered a sign of laziness. A cover letter gives you another chance to emphasize this question: What's in this guy for me? Remember that sometimes, if not most of the time, your resume won's even get to the employers, they only read your cover letter. So write a good cover letter and do not give them a chance to pass you by from the first look (which they do to most applicants). Rules of Thumb for writing a good cover letter? Be concise, keep in one page. Highlight yourself in the first three lines. ...[more] 3 References Nothing hurts you more than a lukewarm reference, so make sure you got good references. A good reference should contain the following[CL8] Job title and dates of employment Relationship of the writer key promotions Duties and responsibilities Work and/or management style Areas of major strength Special training Global contributions Specific results and achievements, and Warm personal endorsement (if appropriate) 4 Find job opportunities 4.1 The proven most efficient way: Mobilize your network Data shows that about 50 to 75 percent of good jobs come from friends[CL5], and the higher the position, the higher the percentage. Therefore, it's usually a good idea to let your friends know that you are available for a new job. The more people you know, the easier for you to get a new job, be them your personal friends or business acquantainces or even people you met in a trade show. To build you personal network[CL16], Contact your friends every now and then, for example, during holidays, when they get something noteworthy (media appearance etc), and so on. Although real friends are friends who only appear when in need, regular friendship still need great effor to maintain. 4.2 Answer want ads like a pro[CL7] Do not spend more than half an hour each day answering online or newspaper ads, and do not expect to get answer from them. Prepare a template for these ads and send them by simple copy-pastes. However hard you try, you do not get too many responses from these sources and it's just not worth the trouble. However, there are exceptions. First, if a job fits you very perfectly, your email, cover letter and resume for that specific ad. There should be only a few of these ads per day. A second exception is that if you really had nothing else to spend your time with, it doesnot hurt to answer each ad carefully as long as you have the time. 4.3 Head hunters If you are earning (or can potentially earn) more than 75k per year, head hunters can probably help you with your job hunting[CL6]. 4.4 Get help from consultants[CL15] Consultants always go from job to job, therefore they know many influential people. 4.5 Uncover hidden job markets[CL12] As long as you are not making yourself look like a moron, try different ways nobody else has tried before, for example, write and recomment yourself to executives in the media, write to conference attendees. To do this, basically you need to collet contact information of people in your field of interest, contact them carefully and try to sell yourself. 5 Interview Preparing for Interviews Get all relevant materials: deploma, certificates, etc. Do not wear clothes you never wore before. If needed, ask to make sure about the dress code. For example, you could send them an email and ask them if you need to wear suits (most of the time the answer would be yes). Prepare for : why would we hire you, why would you work for us, why did you leave your last job... Take a shower, shave, and clean yourself, or better yet, get a haircut. During Interview They care about how you walk, how you talk, how you look at other people, etc. Speak clearly, and at a well-balanced speed. Do not refuse to answer questions (usually), and also be honest when you answer questions....[more] 6 Negotiate with employers about salary This is a little bit off the topic, but we can actually borrow the idea about the sensitive techniques used when asking for a raise. First, make sure the timing is right: the company is making good money, you are making good contribution to the company, and at the very moment your boss is in a very good mood. Then include the following in your request[CL20]: I've accomplished more than expected (figures and numbers if needed), and I plan to do even more next quarter (your specific plans, basically you need to show the boss that it's totally worth it to give you this raise) How do you think the company would feel paying me about X-dollars a month? That's what others in similar positions are paying these days (list your research result). Remember, never present your request as a threat even if you already have another job offer by hand, that makes you look unprofessional and does nobody any good (although it usually feels a little bit like an implicit threat). Be even more careful if you do not have backup plans because you request definite passes this message to your boss: you are not quite happy with where you are, so if she or he cannot give you a raise, she might consider the fact that you wouldnot be happy about that and might think of something else, for example: letting others take over more and more of what you are doing, or even letting you go. 7 Find a contract or part-time job[CL3] Life without a job can be depressing to many people, so it's a good idea to find a part-time job or contract job during unemployment. Getting something positive to do is always a good idea, even some volunteer jobs. 8 For Aliens: checklist for H1B visa application[NVO] Required material from employees an original or notarized copy of your passport.

If you are earning (or can potentially earn) more than 75k per year, head hunters can probably help you with your job hunting[CL6]. 4.4 Get help from consultants[CL15] Consultants always go from job to job, therefore they know many influential people. 4.5 Uncover hidden job markets[CL12] As long as you are not making yourself look like a moron, try different ways nobody else has tried before, for example, write and recomment yourself to executives in the media, write to conference attendees. To do this, basically you need to collet contact information of people in your field of interest, contact them carefully and try to sell yourself. 5 Interview Preparing for Interviews Get all relevant materials: deploma, certificates, etc. Do not wear clothes you never wore before. If needed, ask to make sure about the dress code. For example, you could send them an email and ask them if you need to wear suits (most of the time the answer would be yes). Prepare for : why would we hire you, why would you work for us, why did you leave your last job... Take a shower, shave, and clean yourself, or better yet, get a haircut. During Interview They care about how you walk, how you talk, how you look at other people, etc. Speak clearly, and at a well-balanced speed. Do not refuse to answer questions (usually), and also be honest when you answer questions....[more] 6 Negotiate with employers about salary This is a little bit off the topic, but we can actually borrow the idea about the sensitive techniques used when asking for a raise.

Then include the following in your request[CL20]: I've accomplished more than expected (figures and numbers if needed), and I plan to do even more next quarter (your specific plans, basically you need to show the boss that it's totally worth it to give you this raise) How do you think the company would feel paying me about X-dollars a month?
