Employers and Recruiters — What are some of the best approaches are you've seen for a candidate to
ask for a job at the close of the interview?
Towards the end of the internship, I felt that I wasn't involved in any projects while the other intern
asked for a job because she was so busy.
You can take a direct approach and
ask for job leads or try a less formal approach and ask for information and advice.
You can even ask an administrative assistant for the information if you forget or you feel uncomfortable
asking for job titles.
Networking letter is sent by the employee to the particular employer to
ask for the job advice and recommendations.
For example, if you could not continue to work because of health reasons, you must show that you provided your employer with a doctor's note and
asked for a job transfer.
Finally, make sure you make a strong pitch for yourself and don't forget to
politely ask for the job without seeming desperate.
Most importantly, remember that your goal in reaching out to people in your professional and personal network isn't to
ask for job openings.
Imagine you are a top manager somewhere going about your day job... - then — you get hundreds and hundreds of emails from
people asking for a job.
Ask for the job offer in writing, which should include the job title, start date, and salary at the very least.
Ask for job search assistance, if it's appropriate, and provide your personal contact information, so they can get in touch.
But getting the job is not just getting to the interview, you must also let the employer know that you are truly interested
by asking for the job.
