Career hubs are a good choice, too, for the new college graduate. Hone in on sites that specialize in opportunities for college graduates, Mehler says. They ve paid money to post jobs through these sites. You should also check potential employers web sites for opportunities. Don t be willy nilly.
Unsolicited resumes are often unwanted resumes.
Send your resume for specific opportunities and then only to those indicated as contacts. Read the privacy statements on any of the job listing sites before you volunteer any personal information, Mehler advises. Many web sites sell information about the people who visit the sites. And he advises against posting your resume online, especially on job listing sites. Retain control over your resume, he says.
