How to get your dream job
If you have your heart set on a particular job role or industry but lack the relevant experience or working knowledge it can be difficult to get your foot through the door, especially in these tough economic time. Trying to stay up beat and positive whilst looking for employment is difficult but there proactive ways to keep your spirits up as well as steering you in the right direction of your dream job.
Employers have a larger pool than ever of prospective candidates to choose from and they are more than likely to choose one who has previous experience and requires little in terms of cost and time in training.
It is a bit of a catch 22 situation, you need experience to get a job, yet nobody will give you a job without experience. Luckily there are a number of avenues that you can pursue to turn the situation around to a when looking for work, whether it is trying to break in to the music industry or if you want to run your own executive office furniture business.
If you are in a position to do so, volunteering to work for free within a role or organisation in which you are interested is a great way to build some of that industry specific experience you really need. Companies are normally crying out for an extra pair of hands and if you impress them enough, you may even find a job offer comes out of it!
Secondly taking an short term internship within one or two companies can really provide you with valuable experience, as well as a great boost to your CV. Great quality Internships can be found of websites such as milkround.com.
Lastly never be afraid to go for a position, even if you do not have the experience detailed in a job description. Often emplyers will overlook this if a candiate displays real passion for a particular career on their application and one which pulls relevant skills from previous work experience they do have.
