We are all well aware of the processes of traditional job hunting. It usually starts with writing your resume. And then you mail it or email it to a number of potential employers. You can also post your resume on job sites like Hotjobs and JobsDb. And then the process ends with………….. Waiting. Waiting for the mail to arrive or the phone to ring. If that time ever comes, just then you’ll get the chance to be scheduled for an interview. Usually with an assistant or lower level HR officer. Or just maybe by the ASSISTANT manager or something like that. In the unfortunate event that you do not receive any calls. You go through the whole proccess again. And send more resumes again. You may end up landing a job but… after all the waiting, long months of waiting and frustration and discouragement. And the job that you have landed on might not be the job that you applied for , instead the vacant job that the employers needed to fill up. How great it is, Right? WRONG. There is another way, in fact a better way and a lot faster way to get the job that you want… that is through alternative job hunting. You will have a totally different approach and starting point. The alternative job hunting strategy concentrates solely on what it will take to get in front of the person who could be your future supervisor. It also focuses more on how to represent yourself as the most productive member of the team. In using this strategy, put simply, you can be flooded with the best job offers in as fast as two weeks.

Before you send out your resumes, don’t forget to keep a record of all your applications and make a copy of all the cover letters you will send. If you receive a response in the form of a call or a letter/e-mail from a company, note details such as the date and time the call was made, the person whom you talked to, and what the call was about.

Conducting interviews is beneficial to a company since this is the most immediate way of knowing how capable a candidate may be. Interviews gauge the applicant’s personality, and make you foresee how that candidate could help your company. Sometimes, managers feel a little uncomfortable interviewing a candidate. Read on for some practical tips to make the interview process smoother.

Prep up the candidate by reviewing him the job descriptions. Giving the interviewee an idea of what he’s going to expect could be a good starting point.

Ask him open-ended practical questions that would make the applicant point out his skills or traits. Avoid asking questions which might have formulated answers from job sites. This counteracts the main purpose of the interview, which is to test the candidate’s knowledge and skills.
