How to: Find a job now

Apply for Jobs

You've done your prep work—now it's time to apply for jobs.

  • Apply to jobs you saved in Step 1. You can also visit Job Finder again to search for new opportunities. Need a Cover Letter? Only include one if the job posting specifies it.
  • Reach out to your Business Finder contacts from Step 2, and networking contacts from Step 3. Write an email that describes your qualifications, ask if they'd meet to discuss job opportunities, and attach your resume.
  • On your worksheet: Record the positions you’ve applied for and employers you’ve contacted.
  • Visit Job Applications for a refresher on filling out application forms effectively.
