CareerToolKits.com Introduces Job Search Feature

Sept. 1, 2011 - PRLog -- Finding a job is something that many Americans think about on a daily basis, and having the right resources at their disposal is invaluable to individuals that are seeking employment. For many out of work Americans, starting a new career is a viable option, one that they can embrace if they have access to the information they need about their new industry of choice. CareerToolKits.com, a resource for individuals looking to start a new profession, has integrated a job search feature that allows its visitors to polish their resumes and practice their interviewing skills before starting the application process. This section also informs candidates about the value of social media as a job search tool.

“CareerToolKits.com offers everything that a person needs to make an educated decision about a new career,” commented company spokesperson Jennifer Charleston. “Adding a job search feature was the natural thing to do, as it provides more information that people will need to not only qualify for but land the job they have been preparing for.”

The resume writing and interviewing processes are two of the most stressful aspects of finding a new job, and many job seekers have indicated the need for direction in both of these activities. Resumes are often industry specific and need to follow a certain organizational structure, making it difficult for candidates that are not resume writing professionals to draft content that truly shines among the rest of the resumes potential employers will receive. Understanding the mechanics of a proper resume will give job seekers the confidence they need to effectively represent their employment histories and applicable skills on the document.

“The resume is the first introduction that a potential employer has to a candidate,” said Charleston. “We want to make sure that all of the people who use CareerToolKits.com are prepared to write a resume that stands out and, if they are not, that they have the resources they need to learn how to do so.”

CareerToolKits.com has also included interviewing tips and prepares candidates for some of the
most popular and difficult to answer interview questions. Oftentimes, interviewers ask questions that speak to large topics that do not have one answer, making it difficult for interviewees to discern the response they are looking for. By understanding these kinds of questions before the interview, and researching them in light of the company’s history and current policies, candidates can provide straightforward answers, rather than be caught off-guard.

“Going into an interview can be nerve wracking,” Charleston stated, “so we aim to help job seekers become more familiar and comfortable with the process through the tips that are listed on CareerToolKits.com.”

Additionally, CareerToolKits.com features a section that describes the power of social media to influence a job search. This section provides information about professionally preparing social network profiles and utilizing them to connect with hiring managers, recruiters, and other potential employers.
