Your Dream Job Awaits You, Grab It!

When looking for your dream job, ask yourself what it would entail and then find a job that suits those needs

. Too many times, employees make compromises on whether a job is a good fit for them. This is especially true in periods of high unemployment where any job is better than no job.

The first thing is to define what your dream job entails. Get a pencil and paper and start writing what your ideal job would be, such as working outside, working in a small office or working from home. Consider everything about the job, whether it is working with people, writing on the computer or traveling around, making sales presentations. If you complete the list, ask yourself if everything you are looking for in a job is on the paper and then start to analyze what types of jobs offer what is on your checklist.

You want the employer to hire you for what you offer, not for somebody you are pretending to be. You won't be able to pull the wool over their eyes for very long if it isn't a job that is suited for you so there is no sense in wasting everybody's time. Try not to compromise your job search, when it comes to landing your dream job because you will not be satisfied, although there may be some jobs that fit close enough to be considered.

You need the provisions that a job provides, but you don't need any job that comes along. Try not to make too many compromises when it comes to landing your dream job. The best approach is to come prepared with plenty of questions for the interviewer to see how the job will fit your qualifications. Think of questions that invite the interviewer to answer how they see the perfect candidate and avoid questions that can be answered with a yes or no answer.

You need to have some kind of questions ready, when they are done describing the position and they ask if you have questions. Most people that say they have no questions are disqualified in an interviewer's mind, even though they may be perfectly suited for the job. Ask questions that make the interviewer aware of your interest and your qualifications, along with your career goals.

When you are searching for your dream job, it isn't enough to say this job is perfect for me. An interviewer probably hears that from every applicant that wants the job so be prepared to show why the job fits you perfectly. This means knowing what the interviewer has in mind for the position and listing your qualifications so that the interviewer will be convinced that this is your dream job and you are a perfect fit for it.

As you are asking open-ended questions about the position, be prepared to take notes as to how the interviewer sees the ideal candidate performing the job. Ask questions about the normal workday, normal workweek and any special times, such as month end reports or year-end bonus programs. Knowing what your dream jobs would be is half of the battle; the other half is finding the best fits and convincing the interviewer of your ability to fill the needs they have.
