Get your dream Job

What's the most popular way to find jobs - or employees? According to 2001 survey conducted jointly by the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM) and the answer is NETWORKING

ways to network.
1- Always carry business cardsMake sure you have business cards with you at all times. Keep your cards in your left pocket, because this allows you to reach for them as you're shaking hands. Be sure to keep the cards that you collect in your right pocket. It is very unprofessional to fumble through a pile of cards trying to find one of your own.
2- Carry a nice penBe sure to have a good quality pen in case you need to write anything in front of your new contact. A nice pen has been known to garner an important person's direct phone number or personal e-mail address.
3- Always look your bestAppearances count for a lot. Shave and groom yourself. Always expect to see someone important. No matter how badly you need something to complete a home improvement project, do not run out to the hardware store in your torn, paint-covered sweatpants.
4- Have your elevator pitch readyKnow who you are, and be comfortable describing yourself. "I'm Jack Brown of XYZ Consulting. I'm a corporate trainer and my focus is on increasing productivity and performance by inspiring employees to enjoy serving customers." Or "I'm Charlie Sanderson and I lead the I.T. team at ABC Industries. We create business solutions for small- and medium-sized companies." Be sure to introduce yourself in a confident and calm manner. You want others to ask you questions and you want to be remembered.
