The Kind of Job You Want

The first step in a successful search for a job is to decide on the kind of job you want and the kind you are qualified for. This means that first you should answer the questions "What can I do well?" and "What do I really want to do?" Begin with thinking about the work you can do. Include work you have been trained to do, work you have actually done, and work you enjoy doing. Therefore, you have to answer some questions.

• Do you like to work with your hands?

• Do you like to work outdoors?

• Do you like to work with others?

Next, talk to as many people as possible about your job interests and concerns. Talk to your friends, neighbours, and your family or relatives. These contacts may help you to get more information about different jobs; to form a "network" of people interested in helping you; to find people who work (or who know people who work) in the area of your interest; each discussion will give you additional practice in expressing yourself.

Now when you know the kind of job you want, the next question to answer is "Where can I find that job?"

People use many methods of finding a job. They answer job advertisements (want ads), or apply directly to employers. Of course, some methods are better than the others.

2. Дайте відповідь на запитання, виходячи з Ваших власних інтересів.

1. What are you looking for: money, power, prestige, security, travel opportunities, spare time?

2. How important are the salary, environment, benefits, and job stability?

3. Do you enjoy working with people, information, or things?

4. Is it important to be your own boss?

5. What is your idea of a perfect job? A perfect boss? A perfect colleague?

"Want Ads"

"Want ads" are job advertisements you can find in the classified advertising section of newspapers, professional or trade journals. You should read the want ads at least for two reasons:

• to learn more general information about jobs available;

• to learn specific information about a particular job that is of interest to you.

The ad may tell you about the education and work experience required for the job, the location of the job, the working hours, and the pay. It also tells you how to apply for that particular job.

Some want ads say that certain qualifications are required, while other qualifications are preferred or hoped for. The employer will try to find someone who has all of the required and preferred qualifications. However, if no one has all the qualifications that the employer requires and prefers, he may hire someone who has only some of those qualifications. It is usually best to apply only for jobs for which you have at least all the required qualifications. However, this is not always true.

Not all want ads are easy to read. The longer a want ad is, the more money it costs to print. In order to save money, employers leave unnecessary words out of the advertisement. They also use abbreviations.

There are many good reasons for using the want ads in your job search. The following suggestions will help you to use want ads effectively:

a) Remember that want ads are only one of the methods you may use. Save time to use other methods.

b) Reading all the want ads you will learn useful general information.

c) Avoid ads that make unrealistic offers.

d) Analyze ads, which are of interest to you.

e) Determine your qualifications for that job.

f) Act quickly, effectively and stay cheerful!

2. Type the letter neatly on good stationery.

3. Check for spelling mistakes. Use a dictionary if you are not sure of a word. Retype the letter if necessary.

4. Describe yourself, your qualifications, and your experience clearly.

5. If the ad tells you to write for an application form you do not need to give detailed information in your letter.

6. Follow standard business letter format. Address the letter and envelope clearly.
