Tips for Planning an Effective Job Search:

• Make a "To Do List" every day. Outline daily activities to look for a job.
• Apply for employment early in the day. This will make a good impression and give you time to complete applications, have interviews, take tests, etc.
• Call employers to find out the best times to apply. Some companies take applications only on certain days and times during the week.
• Write down all employers you contact, the date of your contacts, people you talk to, and special notes about your contacts.
• Apply at several companies in the same area when possible. This saves time and money.
• Be prepared. Have a "master application" and resumes, pens, maps and job information with you all the time. Who knows when a "hot lead" will come your way.
• Follow up leads immediately. If you find out about a job late in the day, call right then! Don't wait until the next day.
• Network. Tell everyone you know that you are looking for employment. Stay in touch with friends and contacts. Follow up new employment leads immediately.
• Read pamphlets and books on how to get a job. The time you spend reading these materials will save you a lot of time in your employment search.
• Make automated connections through systems on the Internet, such as America's Job Bank and Floridajob.org
