You have successfully gone through college, received your degree (or its equivalent) from your college president and now you need to take the next big step of getting your dream job but you don’t know how. Getting job placements at globally significant organizations like Apple, Goldman Sachs,Google, Barclays Bank, Facebook, Price Water Cooper (PWC), Microsoft, J.P. Morgan,Coca-Cola or even the United Nations may be tricky but never rocket science. As the job market is getting crowded with thousands of gifted and qualified candidates, you will have to set yourself apart from your ‘competitors’. This can simply be done by equipping yourself with the necessary skills required to fetch you the dream job. All you need to know has been reduced here into seven (7) practical steps:

#1 Find A Niche and Man It

The goal of a crowd is to keep precious artifacts hidden, but you must distinguish yourself by not setting up a camp in their midst. But before this happens, you need a handful of information about the company you wish to work at with a laser focus on their core needs. Why not get talking with an employee of your dream company over a cup of coffee so that you can gain clear perspectives on the core skills lacking in the organization and qualities they desires in their prospective workers. That is a key niche you easily can grab and the best thing you can do is to make yourself the person they will desperately want.


#2 Know Everything About the Company

There is great benefit in seeking in-depth knowledge about the company you want to hire you. This can be done directly by asking a worker in the organization or remotely on the internet. Sites like Joblanda.com ,avention.com, vault.com, forbes.com or Wikipedia.com have a lot of information to offer you concerning many companies.

Interview panels also find it impressive when job seekers have basic knowledge about their organization.


#3 Your Hobby Can Give You A Powerful Edge

Organizations are looking for employees who will add value and make their entire system work effectively. In this case, you need to start deploying those hobbies you have in a professional way to meet their needs. Basic self-taught skills like computer programming, creative writing, public speaking, web designing among others are also side attractions organizations consider when recruiting.

Now is the time to hone you little hobby into a useful skill worth fetching you a celebrity status in your dream company.
