HOW TO BE JOB READY?
1.Job readiness can be defined as for
what employers are looking for.
2.Job readiness skills are the particular academic
skills needed for a specific job.
3.There are main five things which are required for
job readiness or to be job ready are:-
ENHANCE SOFT SKILLS
This is the most essential thing to be a job-ready. The candidates
should always prepare with their soft skills to tell the interviewer. In
very short and easy words, soft skills can be defined as the
interpersonal and intrapersonal behaviours that develop, enhance and
maximize human performance. The soft skills include communication
language, problem solver, personal habits, friendliness, stress
management, effective leadership, conflict resolution and emotional
expression. The people who got benefitted by the soft skills are
Executives, Middle management, Supervisorsteam leaders,
professionals and other employees.
HAVE A PROFESSIONAL PHOTO TAKEN
Many job seekers or recruiters do not like to post their photo on C.V.
especially at the time of online uploading of their C.V.’s. While it is
most of the time not necessary for the recruiters to upload their photo
online if they don’t want to. But in case if they want to or it is essential
for them to upload a photo in any job profile then it should be with a
formal look. There should be no holidays and party’s photos. Also the
use of selfies should be avoided. The photo should always with a silent
smile and approachable gestures.
IDENTIFY YOUR SWOTS
Just like SWOT analysis is very essential for every organisation, in the same way it is very
essential at the time of hiring the candidate. Many interviewers want to know the strength,
weaknesses, opportunities and threats of their recruiters, and especially the strengths and
weakness as they are the internal factors, whereas opportunities and threats are external
factors. Also, knowing about strength tells the interviewer how the candidate is different
from others (or competitors) such as the candidate could be very hardworking, persistence
or a good communicator. Those who know their weaknesses and can openly express
themselves through SWOT, that means they are well adopted and have the ability to adjust
in any kind of environment. Also, weaknesses gave the employer an insight into our
suitability as a right candidate. And by talking about opportunities and threats that how
much candidate is familiar about their organization. In this step, the candidate must tell the
truth about instead of just telling or flattering the interviewer to tell him only what he wants
to hear.
BODY LANGUAGE
The famous proverb which had been said by Steve Jobs i.e. “the first impression is the
last impression. This means that whenever the person enters in the interview room, from
then onwards the interviewer makes the mindset of hiring the candidate or not. The
interviewer will notice the dressing sense and style, way of walking, gestures etc. If the
person is in informal or very shabbily dressed, then the interviewer would surely makes the
mind of not hiring that candidate. Even if he is taking the interview that is only because of
his generosity. Many candidates think that interview process starts after asking questions by
the interviewer. But this is actually not true. This process starts at the time of entering of the
candidate in the interview room. The following things should be taken care by the candidate
while visiting for an interview: -
A. There should be a silent smile on the face of the candidate with an approachable gesture.
B. There should be an eye contact between the interviewer as well as candidate.
C. The answers given by the interviewer should be always in
• a soft and sweet pitch.
D. The candidate should not interrupt in between. It is understood as a sign of
disrespectfulness. The candidate should only speak after the interviewer had finished his
talk.
E. The candidate should always dress formally at the time of interview.
UPDATE YOUR C.V.s or curriculum vitae FROM TIME TO
TIME
The style of writing of C.V.s should always be in a formal form. It
should never be in informal form. The use of formal writing styles such
as Calibri, Times New Roman, Arial should be used. There should not
be the life story of the candidate. There should only relevant points
included in C.V.s so that it could not appear lengthy to the interviewer.
Interviewer spends just 15-30 seconds for analyzing the C.V. of the
candidate. So, it is essential for the candidate to mention only specific
points and if possible highlight only the significant ones. There should
not be any grammatical and spelling mistakes. Only the true
information should be mention in C.V. otherwise, the candidate could
caught at the time of interview or in the future after getting hired in
the organisation.
