Land yourself a Job by Blogging

Unemployed?

Land yourself a job by Blogging. Imagine, your a unemployed Customer Service Manager. You start a blog (which is free and takes about 5 minutes) about your field of expertise....in this case customer service. On your blog, you post your thoughts about how to increase customer service in different aspects of a business.

Now you add your new blog url to the top of your resume and reference it in your coverletter.

As a hiring manager, I look at about 50-75 resumes a year. I would be very impressed by the candidate that has a subject related blog. It effectively sets the candidate part because the hiring manager can immediately see that the candidate can write and knows the subject matter.

There are many free blog hosting sites, a few that I know include:

www.blogger.com (owned by google. I use and really like blogger because post are uploaded and searchable on google very quickly)

www.livejournal.com

www.wordpress.com (extremely popular)

Wishing you the best, in finding your next position.
