If you roll me a ball, I will try to roll it back to you. I am a talkative, outgoing, friendly girl, who is looking for a new human to play with. If you think you can fill the position, I would love to meet you, bring some play toys to see if you can pass my test. I promise to greet you with some cute trilling noises when we meet.

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I’ve been looking for a job for three months now, but I haven’t found anything. I don’t want to sit at home, I want to work. Do you have any suggestions? Signed, Want to Work ©iStockphoto/michaeljung
Dear Want to Work: There are a number of services available to help you find a job, including: • 53 Alberta Works Centres located across the province: humanservices.alberta.ca/offices • Dozens of job fairs in communities across the province: humanservices.alberta.ca/jobfairs • The Career Information Hotline: 1-800-661-3753 (780-422-4266 in Edmonton) • The ALIS careers web site: alis.alberta.ca
Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
These services can help you connect with employers who are hiring, access free job-search workshops, and pick up innovative new job-search ideas. One idea that you might not have tried yet is networking. The ALIS website offers two tip sheets and a video on using networking to find unadvertised jobs. Networking is one of the most effective ways to find work—more than 60 per cent of jobs are filled by people who heard about them through networking. And networking is simple: 1. Contact people you know. 2. Tell them about the kind of job you are looking for and your qualifications. 3. Ask them if they know of any jobs or can refer you to someone who might. ALIS networking tips: • Networking is not asking someone for a job—it’s gathering information and making connections to new people who know about unadvertised opportunities. • Networking is a two-way street—be prepared to give as much information and support as you receive. • Networking works because most people want to be helpful and trust referrals from people they know. • Not everyone feels comfortable networking at first. If you are nervous, start with the people you know best, like friends, family and former coworkers or classmates. Networking is a skill: you will get better at it with practice. • Expand your network by participating in work- or profession-related social media channels like LinkedIn and attending professional association or union functions. • Carry business cards with your name, credentials, phone number and e-mail address. • When you call or e-mail referrals, tell them who referred you. Keep the conversation short and always thank them for their help. If they don’t have the information you need, ask them if they know someone who might. At formal networking events: • Bring lots of business cards with you and hand them out freely. • Say hi to people you know, but keep it brief. You’re there to meet new people. • Approach people with confidence, a smile and a firm handshake. Introduce yourself, explain your occupation and talk briefly about your experience. • Ask people for their business cards and ask if you can follow up. Contact them within a few days. Ask a question about their field or offer them some information. Tell them about your work search and ask if they know of any opportunities or can refer you to someone who might. For more tips on job searches and networking, search the alis.alberta.ca website. Good luck!
