CareerForce can help you jump start your job search. Here are five tips to get you started:
- Develop a plan before you start applying for jobs. What kind of employment do you want? CareerForce can help you with interest and skills assessments plus tips on occupation, industry, and employer research. When you’re ready to start looking, you can search thousands of Minnesota jobs – filtering by location, job title, company name, and keyword—on CareerForceMN.com/job-search.
- Take a good hard look at your resume. It probably needs an update. And remember, your resume should be customized for each position you apply for to highlight the skills and experience you have that match that particular job posting. If you’re over 40 years old, you may want to make some special tweaks to get your resume past screening software—and assist you in overcoming any ageism that could hold you back.
