Introduction
Becoming job ready is one of the most important aspects in today’s
scenario where the competition has increased to such a large extent.
Some steps that would benefit one while preparing for jobs are:
1. Knowing Yourself:
Knowing your interest areas are must before applying for a job. Don’t just
apply for any job opening that you find. Be clear with your thoughts about
what you want to achieve.
Importance of Skills
Becoming job ready requires certain skills such as
interpersonal skills, good communication skills,
adaptability to the new work culture and some
more.
You need to brush up your skills before getting into the
job. Good people relations especially in the competitive
work atmosphere, assertiveness, Proper organizations
skills for good time management, critical thinking and
problem solving with a positive attitude are some of the
key skills you need to be good at while becoming job
ready.
Creating a good professional resume is very important
because in some companies it is the first criteria for
shortlisting candidates for interview process.
Your resume should be one that can speak on your
behalf i.e., everything should be precisely and clearly
mentioned.
Resume writing tips
Resume writing tips
• Look for keywords in the job postings
• Review resume examples for your industry. .
• Use a professional font
• Include only the most relevant information
and put the most important information first.
• Use active language
• Call attention to important achievements.
Communication Skills
• Active listening
Active listening means paying close attention to the person who is
speaking to you. People who are active listeners are well-regarded by
their co-workers because of the attention and respect they offer others.
• Adapting your communication style to your audience
Different styles of communication are appropriate in different situations.
To make the best use of your communication skills, it’s important to
consider your audience and the most effective format to communicate
with them.
Communication Skills
• Friendliness
In friendships, characteristics such as honesty and kindness often foster
trust and understanding. The same characteristics are important in
workplace relationships.
• Confidence
In the workplace, people are more likely to respond to ideas that are
presented with confidence. There are many ways to appear confident such
as making eye contact when you’re addressing someone, sitting up straight
with your shoulders open and preparing ahead of time so your thoughts are
polished.
Interview
Preparation
1. Research the industry and company.
An interviewer may ask how you perceive his company's position in its
industry, who the firm's competitors are, what its competitive advantages
are, and how it should best go forward.
2. Anticipate the interviewer's concerns and reservations.
There are always more candidates for positions than there are
openings. So interviewers look for ways to screen people out.
Interview
Preparation
3. Prepare for common interview questions.
Every "how to interview" book has a list of a hundred or more
"common interview questions."
4. Practice, practice, practice.
It's one thing to come prepared with a mental answer to a question like, "Why should
we hire you?" It's another challenge entirely to say it out loud in a confident and
convincing way. The first time you try it, you'll sound garbled and confused, no matter
how clear your thoughts are in your own mind! Do it another 10 times, and you'll
sound a lot smoother and more articulate.
Thank You!
