Working Wise Dear Working Wise: I just graduated and I’m struggling to put my business administration diploma to work. I have polished my resumé, cleaned up my Facebook page, and have sent out resumés every day with no response. Do you have any suggestions to increase my chances? Signed, Confused Career Hunter Dear Confused: I can empathize with you. Finding that first job after school can be extremely frustrating and disheartening if you let it get to you.

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.
There are a number of resources that can help you land a job, including: • Your school’s career office; • Employment agencies and job-hunting books; • The tip sheets on the ALIS website http://alis.alberta.ca; • Alberta Works Job Fairs http://humanservices.alberta.ca/jobfairs; • Your local Alberta Works Centre http://humanservices.alberta.ca/offices; • Alberta Works Jobs Facebook pages http://humanservices.alberta.ca/socialmedia; • And, tapping into your network of friends, family and student colleagues. You mentioned your Facebook page and that made me wonder if you have a LinkedIn page? LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional networking website with more than 250 million users. LinkedIn lets job seekers post an online resumé profile, search for jobs, learn about different companies, and be discovered by recruiters. You can connect with other LinkedIn members that you know, collect their endorsements of your skills and experience and endorse them back. You can also demonstrate your interests and knowledge by joining LinkedIn Groups and contributing to the conversations. Employers use LinkedIn to advertise jobs and search for candidates. LinkedIn isn’t a primary recruiting tool, but there’s a good chance that a recruiter will view your LinkedIn profile if your resumé catches their interest. That means your LinkedIn profile should match and elaborate on your resumé. Other LinkedIn tips, include: - Only include your name in the name section. - Write a catchy descriptive headline that uses key words. - Include a professional-looking headshot (photo) of yourself. Profiles with photos are seven times more likely to be viewed. A photo of your cat, kids, or latest hiking trip does not convey that you’re ready to work.
