   You are just about Graduating from College
   Hopes are soaring High
   A little now and then, You become anxious
   Can you really get that Dream JOB?
   What would it Take?
   How do I get the JOB?
   Relax!
   Let me teach you HOW
   One of the best ways to get your dream job is to
    master the power of networking. It is believed
    that about 80% of all job openings are filled as a
    direct result of networking.
    So, how do you take advantage of networking
    to land your dream job
   This is very useful if your close friends and
    family members are working in the desired
    field. Most companies advertise job openings
    internally before going external.
   Your friends and family can quickly inform
    you if such openings are available, and can
    advocate you as a reference.
   Many companies and professionals maintain
    active blogs. Find professionals who post
    contents regularly and comment positively on
    their post.
   Experts always love involved people and if you
    become an active member of their blog, they
    would naturally want to know more about you
    especially if you have something good to offer
    them or their company
   Use your time and experience to volunteer for
    nonprofit organizations.
   You will have the chance to meet new people
    who are looking for someone just like you.
   It is also an opportunity to sell your skills and
    abilities to potential employers aside helping
    others
   By joining groups and participating in group
    discussions of these social networks, you show
    your creativity and enthusiasm in your field.
    When a potential employer Google’s you (and
    they will), they will find these interactions and
    you will gain credibility and an edge over
    others who haven’t taken the extra step to get
    involved and engaged.
