Researching Companies you want to work for… Part I

One of the best ways to conduct your career search is by starting with companies. Companies in your chosen industry more than likely have websites and some even have decent career sections on their sites. Aside that, it is important to research how the company is doing and if it will be expanding so checking out the business section of your newspaper is an excellent start.

Also, sign up for Google alerts that emails you any job openings that you are interested in. Alerts can also be helpful in giving you updates on companies and industries that interest you. I will also mention here that LinkedIn is a great tool to keep up-to-date with companies as well as employees working for those companies that interest you.

I will continue with my tips on Company Research in Part II soon…
