Helping you move forward in your life – with clarity, confidence, and care.
1. Research the employer. Find the job on their website and apply directly there if possible.
2. Make contact before applying. Find a question to ask about the role and call the recruiter or hiring manager. Be friendly, ask your question, and give your name clearly.
3. Follow up after applying. Ask for an email address to confirm they’ve received your application — or send your CV and cover letter directly to them if appropriate.
4. Be proactive with communication. After sending your application, follow up once to check it was received. Use names where possible.
5. Make a follow-up call. After the application deadline, make a polite follow-up call to ask about the status of your application.
6. Stay professional throughout. Smile on the phone (people can hear it!). Make notes after each call and remember names of those you speak with.
These small actions help you stand out in a crowded job market. Employers appreciate polite, proactive candidates — so don’t be afraid to get your name out there!
