I was prompted to write an article about looking for a job by a message from one of the would-be candidates. It was a response to an advertisement about looking for an intern. After the initial selection of applications, we decided to invite a job-seeking lady for an interview.
However, the candidate probably thought about her decision, because on the same day she sent me an e-mail refusing it. Our Lady was appalled that someone dared to offer her an internship. She also gave me some advice on the recruitment, employment and treatment of employees. She asked how poor she is to live on internship wages, pay for studies, fuel for commuting and her passions, etc.? I omit the fact that she sent her internship application herself, being aware (I hope) what such an internship is.
I was not indebted and I was also tempted to give some advice to the Lady looking for employment about what life and job seeking looks like. I asked her a few questions and sent her a "little elaboration". I hope she survived, because so far neither widu nor hearing. 🙂
I will not quote the content of this correspondence, but driven by the impulse of this situation, I decided to list the most common mistakes that hinder my job search. Maybe their analysis will be useful to you when you decide to look for a dream job. I am not a career advisor or professional recruiter. These are my thoughts and observations based on experience. Both as a person looking for a job and a person looking for valuable employees, having dozens of recruitment processes under his belt. In short, I know what looking for a job involves.
