????4. 按郵編或城市搜索求職平臺。許多求職網(wǎng)站,包括凱業(yè)必達(dá)(CareerBuilder)、Dice.com(IT工作崗位)和SimplyHired等,都支持通過郵編搜索當(dāng)?shù)氐穆毼豢杖?。即便不能立刻找到心儀的職位,這種方式也可以讓求職者對當(dāng)?shù)氐恼衅甘袌鲇写篌w了解。這些信息會不斷更新,因此要經(jīng)常查看一下。 ????5. 讓紙媒來幫忙。訂閱一兩份當(dāng)?shù)氐纳虡I(yè)期刊和社區(qū)報紙,時刻關(guān)注擁有良好發(fā)展前景的公司(從中找到招聘的機(jī)會)。與當(dāng)?shù)厣虝?lián)系。這些機(jī)構(gòu)可以提供大量與雇主相關(guān)的信息,其中包括主要高管的聯(lián)系方式。鎖定幾個讓你感興趣的公司,然后設(shè)想一次兩分鐘的“電梯游說”,告訴他們你能為他們帶來什么。 ????第三種古老的、科技含量很低的職位來源是大學(xué)校友會,這種途徑往往沒有引起人們的重視。你的母校肯定有校友目錄,其中至少會有幾位就在你將前往的城市,而且都是成功人士,他們會非常愿意幫助自己的學(xué)弟學(xué)妹。 ????6. 出發(fā)之前,把約會日程排滿。從現(xiàn)在起,兩個月內(nèi),除了要制定出行計劃,整理行李外,聯(lián)系一下通過在線或其他方式溝通過的人,約定一起吃午餐,喝咖啡,或到辦公室拜訪他們,閑聊幾句。如果抵達(dá)之后,當(dāng)?shù)厍『脤⑴e辦社交活動,一定要提前報名。卡希爾稱:“或許你不能一到當(dāng)?shù)鼐驼业焦ぷ?,但起碼你會有一個良好的開始?!?/p> ????最后,祝你好運! ????反饋:你是否有過在陌生城市找工作的經(jīng)歷?您是怎么做的?歡迎留言評論。 ????譯者:劉進(jìn)龍/汪皓 |
4. Search job boards by zip code or city.Many job sites, including CareerBuilder, Dice.com (for IT jobs), and SimplyHired, allow you to enter your target zip code and get a list of openings in the area. Even if nothing pops up right away that seems like a good fit, this will give you a general idea of who's hiring locally. Since these listings change constantly, check often. 5. Read all about it.Subscribe to a couple of regional business journals and community newspapers and keep your eyes peeled for news about companies that seem to be thriving (read: hiring). And contact the local chamber of commerce. These groups offer a wealth of information about employers, often including contact details for key executives. Pinpoint a few that might interest you and think up a two-minute "elevator pitch" about what you could offer them. ????A third old-fashioned, low-tech source of job leads that many people overlook: College alumni associations. Your school probably has a directory of alums that includes at least a few successful people in the city where you're moving, and they may be predisposed to help you out. 6. Right before you move, fill up your appointment calendar.Two months from now, while you're making your travel plans and cleaning out your closets, contact some of the people you've connected with, online or otherwise, and make dates to meet them for lunch, coffee, or just a quick chat in their offices. If you've found out about local networking events that will be happening soon after you arrive, sign up for those, too. "You may not already have a job the minute you get there," says Cahill. "But you'll have an excellent head start." ????Good luck! ????Talkback:Have you ever found a job in a city where you knew no one? How did you do it? Leave a comment below. |
