You must read between the lines

Yes, we all know there is a recession about and we are aware of the job losses. We read about it everywhere. However, if we fall into the trap of believing that there is no hope of getting a job because of all the negativity in the news then we are making it easy for others to find a job.

Change your focus. Stop being a Job Seeker and become a Job Hunter. Whats the difference? Well thats easy. A Job Seeker is someone who takes a cursory look at what’s available and makes token applications just to keep the Job Centre staff happy. However, a Job Hunter is a totally different breed altogether. They take positive action and look in places often overlooked by the Job Seekers.

For example, just do a quick search for "UK Jobs " on Google News and see what comes up. Yes – more doom and gloom. This is just what Job Seekers are do when they do a bit of research for prospective employers when they put together a speculative job application. However, Job Hunters will also use Google News as a source for their research but they will look for "New Jobs UK " instead. Look at the difference! Try it yourself and start sending off letters today and beat the Job Seekers to it.
