Five Points for freshers while applying for the jobs

May you have been a topper of your class but at the workplace, you are a fresher. There will be a vast difference in theoretical knowledge and practical experience, and you need to be keen to learn. Before you start every conversation with ‘yes’, you need to be prepared and think. You need to remember first you have to ask questions and then offer your advice.

• Avoid making a Generic Resume

  An ineffective resume is the first common mistake done by every fresher. Remember your resume represents yourself clearly. Many candidates just edit their friends’ resumes and carry them for the interview. And from here the blunder starts. If interviewers may ask some questions from the resume and if you fail to answer those questions, then you will be a big flop in that interview. So the first task is to prepare your resume on your own by enclosing all your skills and career goal. Don’t make a lengthy resume. A short and effective resume will help you to clear the interview. So, prepare an effective resume and crack your dream job.

• Research well about the company before your interview

  A very common question that interviewers ask is 'How much do you know about this company', But the candidates fail to tell a few points about the company. So, it's very important for you to know about the background of the company before going to the interview.

• Learn from the Rejections

  It is not possible for everyone to get a job in their first attempt. So, you should be confident enough about your skills and knowledge. If you got failed in your first attempt you must not get depressed and should not stop job searching. You should follow properly the interviewer’s feedback, and find out where is your mistake and where you need much more attention, you should overcome all your drawbacks and attend the next interviews.

• ?Avoid Dressing up unprofessionally

  When you will go for an interview, don't go in just casual clothes. It doesn't matter what is your job profile, what skills you have, how strong technical knowledge you have, but before going for the interview, you should be dressed up properly, which creates the first impression about you. The official uniform for interviews is formals. And you should follow this blindly since your dress code is one main aspect of interviewing.

Lack of maintaining good Professional Network

You need to be connected well with those people who are already working on your target domain, they can give you references, guidance, knowledge. You may know from them on what you need to focus on, what are the basic things. So, focus on growing a healthy network rather than spending time on social media for entertainment.
