Introduction
‘Planning for new opportunities’ is a step-by-step booklet that helps you to understand what it takes to land a new job.
We will cover the overall parameters for your job search and you will gain an overview of your qualifications and options, so you approach your job search in a more clearly targeted manner.
Our vision is to make it easier for you and help you find a new job as quickly as possible.
Students that are about to graduate often don’t quite know how best to approach job-hunting. Being a jobseeker can be very stressful, because there are so many things you need to do.
Most people approach the task in a fairly disorganised manner and just muddle through.
‘Planning for new opportunities’ structures the process from start to finish, so that you approach job-hunting one step at a time.
The process is built up in such a way that once you have completed all of the steps, you’ll have done everything possible to plan your job hunt and you are then ready to find your job.
At each step, you will acquire the knowledge and tools you need to find a job.
The idea is to help you get off to a good start and the 3 steps to do so are:
• Step 1 What does it take to get a new job?
• Step 2 The overall parameters for your job search
• Step 3 Your options and ambitions
Each step consists of an explanatory text that provides in-depth information and guidance on how to approach the task at hand.
Once you have studied the text, you’ll be all set to carry out each task in practice.
