We'll show you how to do it, and do it right!

Where Can I Find A Job In Person?

Why Is Visiting Employers In Person So Good?

• If you do it right, you create a powerful first impression that's not easy to beat.
• You can grab a job application form there and then (no relying on the post or someone's memory!).
• When you get an interview, you know where to go, who to ask for and can say "It's nice to meet you again". They will hopefully remember you and the positive impression they had of you before.
• If there are no suitable jobs, you know right away, so no waiting around for calls back or answers to your letters.
• It shows confidence and initiative. Most employers prefer to employ people who show some get up and go. It's easy to put cover letters and resumes or CVs in envelopes in an attempt to find jobs, but much harder to approach someone in person.
