Focus research on the organization’s size, market position, financials, competitors, current and future growth pattern, organizational structure, challenges and opportunities. Narrow your search by focusing on a specific industry, then job function, and then organization.
  • Networking:
    The top four sources for jobs are people you know, referrals, direct contact with the organization’s decision makers and the Internet. Find a connection to someone in the field or with the organization you are researching who can refer you.
