JOB SEARCH

Help wanted signs are popping up around town and through job posting websites, giving San Antonians many options to find a new gig. But sometimes, looks can be deceiving if you miss the red flags on a job bulletin.

Juggling a job search and being a full time parent is hard. But according to experts with Healthline, there are a few ways to make the process run smoother. First set up a new email account just for job hunting. When it comes to your job search, it can feel overwhelming. Not only will you have an updated resume, it will show employers you are still excited to learn new things.

Whether its a position that will offer growth in a career path, good company culture, a chance to work remotely, a good driving distance from the office, or any other qualities, its important for seekers to determine and pursue their best fits. If someone eventually gets a job that is a bad fit, that could end up being detrimental, Martin said. If they dont see it in the first six seconds, they might not continue reading the resume. Be kind to everyone, because you dont know how that can influence the outcome.Is it an advantage to already know the hiring manager or someone else in a company? But knowing a prominent person in a company doesnt necessarily guarantee a job, especially if that person isnt in good standing with the company, Martin said.
