Keys to Succeed in a Fierce Job Market

The keys to succeed in today's highly competitive job market are as simple as maintaining social contacts and making a pleasant long lasting impression on others. Sometimes the best way to do so, is by applying for an internship or other entry level position at the company you would most like to work for.  Keep resumes no longer than one page and make certain the cover letter is concise. Also apply at corporations that are similar or hold other interests for you. The more your resume is circulating the better. Job seeking is a numbers game. Do not be discouraged if at first you do not succeed. Whether the company accepts or rejects your application is not as important as the impression you make on those who have connections in your desired field. These days with the job market as fierce as it is, making a good impression on those who are hiring can ultimately lead to other more successful interactions. Impressed people will refer you, so no matter what keep a positive and personable attitude. Your name might just come up in a conversation that could potentially earn you a lovely income doing what you love.
