1. Before you start looking for employment have your resume and cover letter ready, at all times. Dedicate your time at least one hour a day to search for jobs online and/or your local newspaper. Network with your friends and/or relatives ask them if their company is hiring.

2. Searching online can be time consuming if you are not Internet savvy it may take more than an hour to search for jobs and to register with online job-sites. When you have set-up your account online make sure you set-up job alerts, to avoid from viewing the online job-sites daily the job alerts will go directly to your email account or inbox. Once you are set-up it should be a breeze and less time consuming. Online searching is probably the most efficient source in seeking jobs with an abundance of online tools. By you registering you will have to add your personal information, add the type of job you are seeking and upload your resume into the system. Potential employers will see your resume online, but don't wait on someone responding to your resume you should apply to as many jobs as you see fit.

3. The Sundays Newspaper is your best source in seeking employment, unlike the daily newspaper it may not have many jobs posted, depending on your locality. Responding from a newspaper chances are you may have to via mail your resume, fax it, or use email.

Tips & Warnings

• While searching for jobs consider the following questions... How far am I willing to travel? Do I qualify for this job or do the company have on-the-job training? Would this job be a good fit for me? Apply to jobs that you know you are qualify to do.
• You do not want to expose your personal information I would suggest to tweak your resume before you upload.
