Find a Job in Athens

Searching for work shouldn't be difficult. But in the middle of a global pandemic, trying to find a job might feel trickier than usual. The good news for job seekers in Athens is that employers are looking for applicants. So long as you know where and how to look, you should be able to find a job on your terms.

At Express Employment Professionals Tyler, we know the pandemic comes with unique challenges for job seekers. Over the past year, we've worked closely with applicants to help them navigate the Covid-19 job market. If you're searching for work in the Athens area, here are four tips that can help you find a job more easily.

Tips to Find a Job During Covid-19

Widen the Scope of Your Search. If you work in an industry that's been hard hit by Covid-19, you might have trouble looking for work in your field. At that point, it may be worth looking at new opportunities that access some of your other skills and strengths.

Explore Short-Term Opportunities. Another smart move for job seekers during the pandemic is to look at short-term work opportunities. Many employers are using short-term hires to bridge the gap until things return to normal, and these opportunities are a great way to avoid gaps in your own resume.

Prepare for Virtual Interviews. Today, the vast majority of interviews are taking place remotely. As a candidate, it pays to be prepared for video interviews. We suggest practicing for video interviews on camera to make sure your video settings, lighting, and background are all in good order and that you feel comfortable on camera.

Be Ready to Adapt. During the pandemic, employers have had to adapt to new ways of doing business. As an applicant, it helps to showcase you're ready to do the same. When applying to jobs, ask about their Covid-19 protocols. You can then tailor your resume and interview answers to show how you'll excel under these conditions.
