<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With so many job search avenues available to jobseekers today, thinking about where to prioritise your efforts can be a pain.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to our latest poll, 50% of Singaporean jobseekers have collectively agreed that job sites remain the preferred method of choice. Social media, headhunters and recommendations from friends are considered less important.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But how can you make sure you land the job you\u2019re aiming for? <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some things you can do to make sure your job search isn\u2019t in vain:<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Make the most of your online search<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n


The prevalence of job sites today have levelled the playing field for employers and jobseekers. More jobs sites today have shifted from the traditional role of simply connecting jobseekers to companies. Monster for one, is equipped with a portfolio of career management tools to make job searches as targeted and successful as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Filter your job search and input the right keywords to make use of the tools available. With advanced algorithms put in place, your online job search is now a breeze!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep your CV relevant to the role<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n


Everyone tells you to keep your CV updated, but has anyone told you your CV also needs to be relevant? Listing every career experience you\u2019ve had may extend your CV past the ideal length, so instead focus on writing down the experiences that can add to the role you\u2019re applying for. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s important to keep your CV in an easy-to-digest format, detailing relevant employment experience and your key skills and eliminating what is not important for each role.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
