Tip of the Day: Create Personal Connections With Recruiters

One of the most overlooked activities in searching for a job is creating personal connections with recruiters. You can accomplish this by calling or sending an e-mail directly to a recruiter, showing you’re interested in a position. Do it within a day after you apply for a job on the company’s Web site. It greatly increases the chance that your resume will be reviewed and that you’ll get called in for a job interview. Don’t forget to mark down you who you contacted and when. And for an extra step, if the company has a twitter feed, follow them to see if there are any updates or changes in the company.
