Most employers require employees with work experience. This is explained by the desire of the management to save time on teaching practical skills to a person who has only theoretical knowledge. To get a job, having only a document on education, you need to correctly draw up a resume and choose a certain tactic at the interview.
Instructions
Step 1
When writing a resume, you do not have to fill in the "work experience" column. To prevent this from turning into a minus, fill out the rest of the resume in such a way as to look attractive in the eyes of the employer.
Step 2
When filling out the item, professional skills, list those that are required exactly for the position for which you are applying. Avoid unnecessary information. For example, to work as an accountant, you need 1C knowledge, the basics of accounting and knowledge of reporting technology. At the same time, you should not write that you have organizational skills; you will not need these skills at this stage of your work activity. You have to show your competence within the framework of your education, nothing more.
Step 3
Next, you have an interview. Don't worry about a lack of work experience. Turn this flaw into a virtue. To do this, state directly when meeting with a potential employer that you have a fresh perspective on many aspects of work, not "spoiled" by stereotypes from previous jobs. Explain that you can easily learn all the nuances of the activity that will be required of you. In addition, you have a higher level of theoretical knowledge than employees who graduated from an educational institution 10-15 years ago.
Step 4
Perhaps you have to answer a trivial question about the reasons for looking for a job. And in this case, you can favorably distinguish yourself from applicants who have certain experience and their own requirements for the conditions and level of remuneration. Explain to the employer that your goal is to gain work experience in a specialty, and this organization is great for this, because only highly qualified specialists can work in it, etc. In addition, at the initial stage, you do not apply for high wages, this is not so important for you. All this should please the employer, a high assessment of the organization's employees means that he is a good leader. Plus, you don't have to spend a lot of money on you.
Step 5
Position yourself as a person ready for labor exploits, moreover, having new knowledge and not requiring much at the initial stage of your career. In this case, despite the lack of work experience, you are guaranteed employment.
