How do you plan your job search marketing strategy - Margaret Buj - Interview Coach

How do you plan your job search marketing strategy Looking  for a new job can be  an enormous task. But, break the job search down into simple steps and  you’ll be signing that employment offer in no time You should look at job search as a marketing campaign,  you  are the product.  Even the best  products need strong marketing. For  you; Who and what is your target market,  the types of employers who would be looking for an employee with your experience and qualifications? Are your skills industry specific or agnostic? For marketing  you, think of yourself in terms of the classic marketing 5Ps: Product:  What key skills and attributes can you offer your “customers” (employers)? Price:  What is your value? Do your educational background, experience, and professional strengths qualify you as a premium product-something elite-or will you need to start “discounted” to get your foot in the door of your targeted sector? Promotion:  What themes or messages convey what you have to offer professionally? Place (distribution):  How will you distribute yourself on the market? Consider using multiple means of “delivering” yourself to potential employers. This could include on-campus recruiting events, job ads, career fairs, company websites, executive recruiters, and referrals from your network. Positioning:  What differentiates you from other candidates? What is unique about your skills, background, or interests? (This is what almost everyone I work with struggles with).
