CONVERSATION ABOUT JOB INTERVIEW

• What occupation are you pursuing?
• What information are you seeking?
• Which companies are you trying to reach?
• Who would be an excellent lead for you?

Be very clear and specific about this before you go to your next association or business meeting, networking event or cocktail party. The results will surprise you. If you're not sure what you want, try saying, "I'm in transition and looking at different opportunities available to me," instead of saying "I just need any kind of a job." Use every opportunity to network. Networking is an ongoing process, even after you get a job, and it helps you obtain future jobs. Also try to keep building your network continuously.
