Sales

When you get into sales you don’t need any degree. Your grades won’t really matter a lot. You just need to have the sales personality. You just need to know how to convince people and seal the deal. Sales is one of the core factors for businesses so you’d hardly run out of opportunities. Moreover, you don’t just earn from your salary.

Technical vocational

There are also those who might be interested in tinkering with stuff. In this case, there are still some opportunities for your skills. You can try taking courses like cycle mechanic training. Or you can also opt for plumbing and other handy works. It doesn’t take many years before you finish the course. You simply need to take a few courses and your off to get experience while earning.

• Don’t use a job description that doesn’t reflect reality: It is very common for HR Managers to recycle the job descriptions. This leads to usage of words or phrases to describe a position that is no longer relevant to the current role. This paves way for hiring a person who may be perfectly fit for the description but not the actual vacancy!

It becomes easier for you to revise the old job description and make it relevant to the actual job position.

1. Search for jobs based on type of job or job category. Apply to categories that are of interest to you and that you are well qualified for. For example if you have experience in retail sales or counter sales, apply for jobs in the sales category.
2. Look at the work timings Some jobs have normal 9-5 but some may have evening shifts which may not be suitable for all candidates. If you have a family, night/evening shifts may prove to be difficult for your family so keep that in mind. Part time jobs should also be considered if you are looking at making extra cash.
3. Find a job close to home. If you live far away from the desired job consider how long it would take you to get to work because this may affect your work performance and transport costs.
