Sign up for emails: Many platforms like Indeed and LinkedIn allow you to sign up for emails which list jobs with specific attributes of your choosing.
Verify the company: Job listings often list jobs that are not legitimate. Protect yourself by verifying the company you are applying for as well as only sharing limited contact information on your initial application (such as your name and a non-private email address). To verify a company you can google "is [CompanyName] legitimate". Once you verify the company is legitimate it is also safer to apply for the job via that company's website. Look for their careers page and search for the job opening. You can also read the article from Western Governers in the Job Search Resources section below.
Apply to many jobs: Tailor your application/resume to the job title you want. Make sure you utilize industry standard verbiage for that job title in your resume. Then apply to 5-10 jobs with similar titles per day. This has been proven to yield results in a fairly timely manner.
Custom tailor your resume: Tailor your application/resume to the job title you want. Make sure you utilize industry standard verbiage for that job title in your resume. If there is a job that sticks out more than the others, you can tailor your resume for that specific application and even write a cover letter to the company. Make sure you use keywords in your resume that match the words used in the job description's required qualifications. This ensures you make it through the company's AI screenings. You can also utilize AI to help you accomplish this.
Ask for the right price: Many job postings will ask for your desired salary. Do a quick google search for the job title and the average pay for that title in your area/state. Then aim for somewhere in or close to that range according to your skill level and need.
Do not worry about rejection: Do not dwell on rejection or being ghosted. When applying for many jobs it is bound to happen to everyone. Keep at it.
Verify the company: See the "Verify the company" bullet point under Job Search Tips above.

Keep it Short & Focused: Aim for 1 page (2 pages max). Only include relevant experience for the job you're applying for.
Use Strong Action Words: Start bullet points with words like managed, built, organized, repaired, improved, supported, created, or assisted.
Highlight Achievements in Past Jobs, Not Just Duties: Instead of just listing tasks, focus on results. For example: "Helped reduce shipping errors by 20% by improving warehouse inventory system."
Tailor your Resume: Tweak your resume to match the job title by using similar keywords and emphasizing relevant skills. If there is a job that sticks out more than the others, you can tailor your resume for that specific application and even write a cover letter to the company. Make sure you use keywords in your resume that match the words used in the job description's required qualifications. This ensures you make it through the company's AI screenings. You can also utilize AI to help you accomplish this.
Include Certifications & Skills: List any certifications, tools, or software you know that relate to the job.
Make it Easy to Read & Use a Simple Layout: Use a one column simple layout, clear fonts, bullet points, and enough white space so it’s easy to scan. Too many fancy graphics can distract. If you use the Canva Resume Templates resource in this section, make sure to keep the design simple!
Layout in Sections: A well-organized resume is easy to read and highlights your strengths quickly. Most resumes follow a simple layout with clear sections such as contact information, professional summary, skills, certifications, work history (reverse chronological order), education (reverse chronological order), and notable accomplishments.
Proofread Carefully: Spelling and grammar mistakes can make a bad impression—read it out loud or ask a friend to review it.
