Back to Ask a Psychic!

I’ve been looking forever for a job and don’t know where to go or what will happen.

Contact employment agencies

Go and personally talk to people at your social welfare/unemployment office that deals with placing people into work

Send your cv to companies you want to work for 70% of jobs are not advertised

Get family and friends to recommend you for work at their work

Place ads on noticeboards and in online newspapers stating your looking for work

Update your cv it should be no longer than 3 pages and your covering letter should always match the ad for the job showing them why they should hire you and it should also include examples of good things you have done for example if the ad said someone who goes the extra mile and the job was for a senior services department or in health care what examples have you got that show this. Your cover letter is the first thing they read if it doesn’t appeal your applications won’t get shortlisted. It is about selling yourself and standing out as your competing with hundreds of applicants.
