Job Search During COVID-19
Looking for a job can be hard. With the extra stress during COVID-19, it can be even more difficult. Below are some things to keep in mind when looking for a job during these times:
- Use this time to work on your resume.
- Make a new professional email address.
- Reach out and network with those you know who work in the field you’re looking to enter.
- Re-work your resume to highlight remote work. Many companies need remote workers during this time.
- Become familiar with what companies are hiring.
- In Arizona check out Indeed.com Arizona at Work. Many companies are hiring for temporary positions. This is helpful if you’ve been laid off but expect to be going back to your old job.
- Think positively about what jobs are out there. Industries still hiring:
- Health care
- Grocery
- Delivery
- Warehouse
- Manufacturing
Online Interviews
Online or virtual interviews via phone or video platforms are popular. Be ready for this just as you would an in-person interview. Keep in mind some things related to technology.
- Check your internet connection, microphone, and camera are all working well.
- Pick an area in your house for your interview. Choose one that is clean and clutter free.
- Be sure it is quiet:
- Turn off the TV.
- Turn your cell phone off.
- Close open windows.
- Let others in the house know that you will be on an interview.
- If you know what platform you will be using (ZOOM, Skype, FaceTime, etc.) practice with it. Set something up with someone you know to test for audio quality, lighting, etc.
- Avoid using the internet or your device while in your interview. It will be distracting to you and your interviewer.
- Wear professional clothing – even though you are at home, you should still appear professional.
- Wear solid colored, collared shirts.
- Avoid wearing distracting jewelry or accessories.
- Comb or brush your hair.
