Stay Updated, Read The News

Now you don’t have to read the entire paper, and you don’t have to visit every news website. Just look at the highlights. For example, if a company announces they plan to begin development on a new product, they may be hiring; if a company announces their profits decreased by 35% this quarter, they might experience layoffs in the very near future.

Research The Company

If you are considering a particular company, made sure you research them! Now, this doesn’t mean you can get away with simply visiting their website; you have to work a little harder. See what kind of dirt you can dig up. For example, if they have only been in business for a year, look into what types of products they are looking to develop; if they have been in business for a while, look into how they have been doing. Public image, law suits, any information is pertinent and can directly affect you as an employee.

The best candidates for a job position are ones referred by a company’s current employees. If you have a friend in a company, connect with them. If you want to connect with an individual that works at a company, look into social networks. Make a friend, get a referral!
