Looking for work can be a full-time job. It does take time and effort, but there are a number of proven methods you can use to successfully gain employment.  Here are a few examples:

• Develop a good résumé
• The vast majority of available jobs are not advertised so visit employers in person to see if they are hiring
• Build your personal job search “network” by spreading the word through family and friends that you are looking for employment
• Check job search websites
• Check the newspaper classified ads
• Contact employment service agencies
