Because TJF is also about learning, we have gathered a set of HR tips for job seekers during the Lisbon edition in 2019. We approach recruiters and HR managers from different companies to tell us about the key practices that can help you in finding a suitable job, as well as ways to increase the probabilities of getting hired. Featuring advice from PNB Paribas, Climber Unbabel, Landing. Jobs and many more.
Here HR tips to increase your chances of getting hired in job:-
-
Be yourself and be sincere
Avoid pretending to be someone you are not. Come as real as possible.
-
Be confident and tailor your cv
Know very well which position(s) you are going to be applying for
-
Make your application different
It’s about making it unique
-
Understand the job(s) you are applying to
In terms of career and self-development, as well as values and cultural fit
-
Don’t be shy
Be open to learn new things and always be curious
-
CV may not always be that important
As long as you can show the recruiters how enthusiastic you are and what you love about the job
-
Show your strengths
But don’t be afraid to show your weaknesses as well
-
Get to know the company you are applying for
Really see if there could be a real fit and be transparent about what you are expecting from the company (salary expectations, task expectations, holiday expectations)
-
When in an interview, ask to talk to the people who will be working with
Get to know the environment and your potential new colleagues
All in all, the common advice seems to go around the motto “Be yourself, smile and be as authentic as you can”. No matter how big the company is, whether it is more or less international, we’re all humans after all. Showing your strengths and weaknesses as well as your passion can really help explaining why you are a good fit for the job.
