Social media is a powerful tool when searching for a job. Employers use social media to promote their business as well as advertise for positions. Employers also use social media to review applicants they consider hiring. Make sure your profile picture, pictures, and posts make a good impression.

Professional Email & Voicemail

It's important to note that about half of applicants don't send a thank you note after an interview. So, if you're one of the applicants who do spend a few minutes taking the time to send a thank you note to your interviewers, it will be worth the effort.

The purpose of the cover letter is to introduce yourself to an organization, demonstrate your interest in the company or a specific position, draw attention to your resume and motivate the reader to interview you. Often this letter is the first contact you have with an employer.
