1. Some Common Blunders
Committed
By
Job Seekers

2. Through online applications
Applying online for a job is the first mistake any job
seeker can make as the online portal gets maximum
job applications.
Quality of the resume should be the foremost
priority, rather than quantity.
Applications which are creative and has some weight
in it stand out in the clutter of their less impressive
counterpart. Job seekers in Washington can seek

3. Job experience and qualifications are
important
Fine balance needs to be maintained between
sending an application for a job for which one do
not meet the main qualifications and limiting
oneself strictly to jobs for which one meet every
single one.
Never forget that an applicant's personality may
be the single most important factor in hiring
decisions, so make use of connections not merely
as advocates but as individuals who can land you
the interview at which you can impress the HR.

4. Tell your story in the cover letter
Several sources assert that around 60% to 80% of cover letters are not read by the
employers.
It is true for low-level jobs for which there will be dozens or hundreds of applications,
and at large organizations that use algorithms to screen résumés looking for key words,
and which do not scan cover letters.
One should always submit a cover letter if the option is available, but make sure that it
is focused not on your story but on the story of what you can do for the organization.

5. Single Page Resumes
One should make every effort to limit their résumé/CV to a single page. Résumés
should include all the qualifications and facts about your work history of previous
employers that are relevant to what the HR is seeking.
Job seekers who have fewer than ten years of
experience it is impossible that one would need
more than a single page to define the work
you’ve done that would be relevant.
However if you have relevant information to
convey to the potential employer, do not be
afraid to go beyond page one.

6. Application Rejection
Employers do not take the trouble of responding
to job applicants when applicants are rejected.
There maybe hundreds of applicants, and that’
why employer has little incentive to respond to
every single one of them including you.
This is hopeless, but a fact of modern
organizational life.
Try to take it in stride. You can take the help of a
career Counselor to get hired, Jim Weinstein is one
of them Career Development Counselor in DC.
