Hi All! ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I just wanted to offer a few tips for those seeking employment from my 12+ years in healthcare administration.
First off, I would encourage & highly recommend that you invest in paying a professional to review your resume'. This is your first opportunity to impress any employer. If you want to stand out, your resume' must be perfect...it must be proofread & proofread and have correct spelling and grammar. This is one of the BEST decisions I've ever made!! Make sure to list your credentials. I know this has been said many times before from others. Be willing to accept any position...it may not be exactly what you want. However, there are always opportunities to grow & get a promotion if that is your goal.
Secondly, when you're called for an interview...ALWAYS dress professional. I would recommend a business jacket/skirt for women. Keep it simple. Don't wear loud crazy colors or patterns. Wear heels. Keep your makeup to a minimum and don't wear perfume. Per my husband..."always dress for the position you strive to be!" There is so much truth in that statement. I believe this applies not only for an interview, but after you're hired as well. I've always dressed in business skirts with a jacket. In many of my previous positions, I was always the best dressed & this has always taken me upward to the positions I wanted. This look shows you are professional and care about your appearance and take your job seriously. It is a great way for employers to see that you stand out & you could be on your way to a promotion.
Third thing is always have a positive upbeat attitude. No one wants to be around a negative person. We all have stress in our lives, but if your employer sees that you're enthusiastic and willing to learn, this will enhance your credibility.
I hope this helps those of you seeking a job. Follow these tips & you'll be on your way to some great opportunities!!
