Getting a job in another state |
Resident Skeptic |
It seems like applying for a job is such roulette wheel these days. How does one get noticed or stand-out among so many applications? Even more, how do you get a company in another state to give you the time a day? _________________ "It is doubtful if any Trinitarian Pentecostals have ever professed to believe in three gods, and Oneness Pentecostals should not claim that they do." - Daniel Segraves UPCI

Always followup with two calls to the manager spaced about two weeks apart and tell him or her that their company is the one you have selected out of many others for employment. If you dont get promising results shortly thereafter dump them and try another. |

This is a hard one RS. I can see a company's hesitance if an applicant is asking for relocation funds to move to the new state. I cannot see it being a problem with a Business.
But I do know it is tough to break into a Federal, state, county gov't job. I know they protect those for 'friends and family' pretty fiercely.
Best of luck my friend. _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!

If your Daddy is well connected - ask him to help.
Or does that only work if you want a COG position? _________________ Whether you like it or not, learn to love it, because its the best thing going today! |

The KEY words here of course. Yep that works in business or most church denominations.
However lack of that is usually a big problem.
I think the problem now a days, is that the 'Human Relations Rep' is impressed by school names, rather than experience. I am not sure there is a good answer to the question from where I sit. BUT there honestly may be an answer, I hope it comes thru here. I would like to read it. _________________ Some facts but mostly just my opinion!
