5 Creative Ways To Find A Job

1. Send half of your application(Resume)

 
Find a place where you’d like to work. Write a great cover letter that explains why you would be a good fit for the job and points to your resume.
 
Don’t seal the envelope and don’t put a resume inside. They’ll think the resume fell out of the mail. They will give you a call and talk to you. Sell yourself without any shame.
 

2. Write A Prospecting Letter

Use direct mail to your advantage. Locate 5-10 companies. Write a letter to your network of contacts and ask if they know anyone who works at any of the companies on your list.
 
When a contact says they know someone on your list, send them your resume and ask them to send it to the person or ask for permission to send it yourself.
 

3. Email chain letter

Make a list of 20 companies you want to work for and send an email to everyone you know asking if they know anyone who works there.
 
Ask them to let you know if they do, so you can ask for a recommendation. The last step is to ask them to send your email to 10 more people. But don’t do this if you already have a job!

4. Distribute A Booklet

Give away a booklet you’ve written with information about your business. Everyone likes free information, and this shows how knowledgeable you are. Give the booklet away online and advertise it in newsgroups where hiring managers will see it.
