Get A Job - Adults

To get the most out of your job search, keep yourself informed, prepare well and use up-to-date job search techniques.

You’re much more likely to get a job if you:

know what you want. You need to be aware of your goals and skills. The My Guide section will help you explore and identify career goals.
understand the labour market and patterns of work.
prepare for success. Practical information about how you can prepare both mentally and physically for getting that job.
create a job search strategy that works. Learn how to find those job leads; research jobs, employers and their needs.
present yourself effectively. Information about writing and preparing resumes, applications, covering letters, portfolios and how to present yourself on the phone.
build your interview skills. Information about presenting yourself in an interview.
know what to do when someone offers you a job. How to behave; what to do.

Tip!

Keep a written record of what it costs you to look for a job. Many expenses, such as travel, telephone calls, stationery and postage, are tax deductible.
