Job Seekers!!! This one is for you! 

What do you have to do daily?

Get up early. The early bird definitely has a better chance to catch that worm! Get dressed and get ready as if you are going out to work. There is something to be said for acting the part before you get the part! Then you start working through all the job boards like LinkedIn, Indeed and everywhere you can possibly think of. Be active and read through the job postings thoroughly, because applying for a job that doesn’t apply to you at all only wastes everybody’s time, especially yours. Look for job descriptions that is of interest to you, look for duties and responsibilities that you know fall into your skill set and don’t be afraid to think a bit outside the box. 

Never be afraid to reach out for guidance and advice. Your LinkedIn profile can be set up to work FOR you. Find out how to do this, and get going properly! Technology is amazing. Use it. 

Send out your CV to all those interesting jobs, the ones that are a good fit for you! Prepare a catchy, well-thought out cover letter and be very careful of attaching a photo of yourself as part of your application. There are pro’s and cons to this and many employers dislike photo’s attached to CV’s while others don’t mind. However, you dont’ want to take a risk by sending your CV through with a photo to a job you REALLY like and then it gets thrown out because it landed with a hiring manager that detests photos attached to CV’s. You see?
