10 ways to get the job you want

Being qualified just isn't enough nowadays! You have to use a competitive and confident approach to give yourself the best chance of getting the job you want. Analyse your weaknesses and strengths. Find out what others in the same profession are doing and what are the requirements of the role. Draw out your strengths and emphasise them in your CV and always highlight your key achievements.

Here are 10 tips you should try (I've used some and staff I've employed have too, so they do work!):

1. Find out the name of the person who would be your line manager if you weregiven a job. E.G. Fitness Manager, Lead Coach etc.

2. Send an email with a CV directlyto the place you'd like to work, not head office.

3. Putting a photo on your CV helps personalise your CV and makes it unique in a pile of CV's.

4. Keep CV short, no longer than 2 pages. NO spelling mistakes!

5. Follow up the email with a visit in person to the place you'd like to work.

6. Enrol on other courses (such as Circuits, Studio, Exercise Referral)to increase your skill set and employability.

7. During interviews, slightly mirror the interviewers' body language and keep an open body (no folded arms).

8. If you're already in the job you want and want to step up he career ladder - do what others won't do and you'll get noticed. Work hard, work late, help out etc.

9. Join up to health and fitness groups and magazines.

10. Sounds simple, but it works -smile!
