How to Find a Job in Kitchener During the Pandemic

The Covid-19 pandemic has made searching for work more complicated and more stressful for job seekers. While employers are still hiring, the types of jobs available have changed. So has the way we apply and interview for these positions. If you're trying to find a job in Kitchener right now, you might feel overwhelmed by all of these complications.

At Express Employment Professionals Cambridge, we want to ease these anxieties. Our recruiting specialists can give you a clear path to employment, helping you find a job during the pandemic on your terms. We can also help guide you through the job search process. Here are just a few of the tips we've made to job seekers during the pandemic.

Tips to Find a Job During Covid-19

Be Ready for Video Interviews. It's always a good idea to practice ahead of time for interviews. That's especially true when you're interviewing on video, which offers a number of unique challenges. Try interviewing yourself on camera in a practice interview. This will help you fine tune your presence on video. It will also allow you to troubleshoot audio, video, lighting, and background issues.

Rethink or Expand Your Skillset. If you're having trouble finding a job in your preferred field, it might be a good time to rethink or expand your skillset. Take time to consider your soft skills to see if there are other fields where you have what it takes to excel. Alternatively, if you're in the middle of a longer job search, try using the opportunity to add new skills to your arsenal.

Don't Dismiss Short-Term Work. Covid-19 has led to plenty of uncertainty, and that's led to a number of employers to scale back long-term recruitment in favour of short-term hires. While you might not be eager for a short-term position, it could be a great fit. In addition to a source of income, it will help you avoid resume gaps. When things get back to normal, you can pivot back to long-term work.
