When you're looking for a job, you often face challenges, like automated application processes

and a pool of qualified applicants, which can make standing out as a viable candidate challenging.

In this article, I share 7 strategies to boost your competitive value and help you get the job.

7 tips for your job search

From performing the proper research to enhancing your resume, there are several ways you can improve your chances of getting hired. Here are some ways you can get noticed by hiring managers:

  1. Get to know the job placement agency.

The easiest way to get hired - Hiring can be a slow and inefficient process. Unojobs simplify the job posting, candidate search, interviewing, and scheduling process to make hiring faster and easier for employers. Whether you are an experienced candidate or a new jobseeker, they can help you find the right job across industries, roles, and departments. Unojobs connect passionate professionals with job opportunities at fast-growing startups and top companies.

  1. Compose a compelling cover letter

Your cover letter is your chance to provide evidence of why you are the right candidate for the position. Use keywords and phrases from the job description to demonstrate your awareness of the role's responsibilities and how you meet its expectations. Try to anticipate what questions the hiring manager may ask and answer them in your cover letter.

  1. Redefine your resume

Resumes that list job duties lack the vital information that tells the hiring manager why you are the best one for the position. When evaluating your resume, be sure it is outlining not only your duties but how you performed them in ways others might not have. Use job-related keywords and action verbs such as "created" or "designated" throughout your resume to lend impact to your statements.

  1. Work with a career coach

Consider working with a career coach to help you strategize your approach to a job proposition. A coach can inspect your resumes and cover letters and help with applications.

Your career coach can also challenge you to set professional goals and form plans to reach them, including suggestions for ideal jobs or complementary industries. Working with a coach can keep you motivated and optimistic while you improve your skills.

  1. Prepare a persuasive narrative

During an interview, you might be asked to tell the interviewer about yourself. While it's fine to talk about hobbies and interests, keep the focus on the position and tailor your answers to fit the job description. Craft a compelling story that illustrates how you solved a problem, made improvements or overcame an obstacle at work.

  1. Promote your soft skills

While your resume might list your hard skills, be sure to highlight soft skills such as teamwork, communication, problem-solving and time management in your cover letter and interview. Qualifying for a position means you have both the technical skills the job requires and the ability to be flexible, work independently or collaborate with colleagues.

  1. Volunteer or seek additional training

Consider volunteering in your spare time to gain additional experience or on-the-job training. Volunteering demonstrates compassion and a willingness to work selflessly.

If volunteering isn't practical, use the time to pursue relevant education or training that will add to your experience and expertise. Remember to include volunteering and training on your resume and mention them in your cover letter, website or interview.
