Avoid These 3 Job Search Mistakes
Partying Like it's 1999 and Other Mistakes You're Making in Your Job Search
By Angela Rose, BioSpace.com
Perhaps no one (or at least no one sane) would liken their job search to a party - it's an obviously stressful, time - consuming and sometimes disheartening process. Regardless, partying like it's 1999 or job searching like it's 1999 is dangerous (the one to your liver, the other to your career). In fact, relying on outdated job search techniques could be preventing you from finding your dream job.
1. Extra! Extra! Don't Read all About it!
If you began your career in the '90s, your number one tool for finding open positions would have been a local or regional newspaper. This is no longer the case. Subscription numbers are down, publications are going under and most life science companies have tightened their employment budgets and are no longer placing paid job advertisements in the classifieds. If you've been scouring the Help Wanted section of your local rag, you're missing out on the majority of jobs out there.
