Somo la Leo: Mambo muhimu matano ambayo kila anaetafuta kazi anatakiwa kuyafahamu

Recruiters probably aren't reading your résumés: 

Sometimes hundreds or even thousands of job seekers apply to the same job. Since recruiters don’t have time to read through all of the resumes they get, they use keyword searches to filter out as many apparently unqualified resumes as they can.

23% of all job opportunities don't get advertised. 

Instead of advertising jobs, recruiters often do a keyword search on-line and directly contact the people they think would be a good fit for their job. If you aren’t on-line and if you don’t have the right keywords in your profile, you’re missing out on these opportunities. Ensure that your presence online is good on professional sites like LinkedIn, your university site and many more

Not all job seeker activities are created equal. 

As a job seeker, you have a lot of work to do: searching for jobs, filling out applications, writing resumes, networking, etc. Combined with the urgency of needing an income, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and start frantically applying to as many jobs as possible. But, applying to lots of jobs isn't always the best use of your time.

An organized job seeker gets hired faster. 

Wouldn’t it be nice to remember which jobs you’ve applied to, when you applied, what the application status is and which jobs you’re most excited about? Staying organized helps inform you about what to do next to be as efficient and methodical as possible.

You're qualified for more jobs than you realize. 

Most job seekers only come into contact with a small percentage of the jobs that are a good fit for them. This happens because it’s very hard to know all of the search terms that could be useful in your job search, especially when you consider keywords for similar roles in different industries or for slightly different roles in the same industry.
