1. Apply for a high volume of jobs (30-40) daily to increase your chances of getting noticed.
2. Don’t just use “easy apply”; apply for other types of job postings as well.
3. Apply as soon as a job is posted by turning on job alerts for immediate notifications.
4. For dream companies, immediately seek referrals. Connect with many employees in similar roles and ask for referrals. Approach multiple people since few will respond and even fewer will refer.
5. When asking for referrals, don’t start with “Hi” or “Hello.” Directly send a message with the job posting link or job ID and attach your CV. Follow up after one day if needed. Repeat with multiple people until you get a referral confirmation.
6. Apply only for jobs where you meet the requirements in terms of experience and skills.
7. Build a strong LinkedIn profile: have over 500 connections, update your latest experiences, relevant projects, education, use a professional photo, and list relevant skills in your bio.
8. If the job poster’s or recruiter’s ID is in the job posting, connect with them immediately after applying and send your CV with a message.
9. Keep your account visible to people in your field by sending connection requests to relevant people and sharing your learnings on LinkedIn to boost visibility.
10. Personalize your connection requests to explain why you want to connect, increasing the chances of acceptance.
11. Engage with posts from connections and industry leaders by liking, commenting, and sharing to stay visible and build your network.
12. Publish articles or posts about your expertise to demonstrate knowledge and attract employers.
13. Join and participate in LinkedIn groups related to your industry to expand your network and visibility.
14. Ensure your headline and summary reflect your current role, skills, and career aspirations with relevant keywords.
15. Request recommendations from colleagues, managers, and clients to strengthen your profile.
16. Follow companies you’re interested in to stay updated on job postings and company news.
