Online Job Search
Figuring out how to get a job online means a whole lot more than just going online, popping your letter-perfect resume on the Web, and waiting for the phone to ring. Though all those activities are part and parcel of getting a job, an online job search involves a critical follow-up component, and that’s what this chapter is all about.
A big part of what has changed about job searching is that the phone has become a critical “back-end” part of the job search. This is particularly true of an online job search. Even if you have a great resume, even if you have put it in all the right spots, and even if you’re inundated with 100 phone calls as a result, you still have to “win” the phone calls that you receive in order to land interviews and ultimately get a job.
