你梦寐以求的工作弹指可得
以下故事中的人们竟能通过互联网找到合适的工作似乎令人难以置信.读下去其实你回发现并不难……
“任何你感离毕业只有不到一个月的时间,伊里诺斯州伊文斯顿的西北大学的特里萨·凯斯比尔还没有找到合适的工作。就业安置中心指导这位主修文科的学生上“就业之路”查询,该网站是一家互联网站,储有45,000个初级职位.
凯斯比尔选择四个关键词:芝加哥、商业、营销和全职。她很快就发现有45个工作符合她的要求,其中还包括芝加哥大学商学院一个管理人员助理职位,四周后她被录用,起薪为32,000美元.
“我没有受过训练” 凯斯比尔说, “但是互联网用起来很容易.要没有互联网我就不会知道有这份工作.”
还在几年以前互联网上所列的大部分工作属于高科技领域,如今非技术性的工作,如营业员,银行出纳,秘书,是互联网就业机会中成长最快的工种.兴趣的职业你都会找到”,一家在线咨询公司——国际商业网的执行总裁约翰·萨姆瑟说, “就是笨手笨脚的天提物理学家也能找到工作”
“互联网可以使你触及到的范围远远超过你的常规空间.” 《互联网求职指南》的作者马格雷特·赖利·戴克尔强调指出。
几个月前,27岁的内德扎德·多兹里克正在浏览《修斯顿遍年报》网站,想了解棒球的最新人员变化。上网浏览时,他决定查看一下分类广告,结果找到了一分当地汽车经销商当司机的工作。作为波斯尼亚的难民多兹里克干过各种职业,但是他现在准备找分新的工作。在经销商的网站上,他看到较多的是有关该职位的情况,然后拨通网上所列的号码。两天后他被聘用。“真有意思”,他说,“我只是看看体育,结果却找到了一分更好的工作。”
互联网的另一大用途是研究潜在的雇主。当宾夕法尼亚威尔斯巴勒的温迪·梅隆在1997年的夏天开始找工作时,他登陆到“创业者”网站。通过该网站她了解到在马里兰州哥伦比亚的一家叫阿比特朗的媒体-信息-服务公司有一个从事人力资源空缺的工作。梅隆点了一下鼠标就将个人简历通过电子邮件发到该公司。不久他就收到了面试的通知。
为了了解该公司更多的资料她点击进入阿比特朗及其母公司——塞里戴安的主页。通过主页她翻阅了公司的年度报告和公司的财务运营状况。
梅隆还想知道她得挣多少钱才能维持现在的生活水准。通过使用在线工资计算器,她输入目前的薪资——宾夕法尼亚威尔斯巴勒和巴尔的摩(最靠近哥伦比亚的大城市)34,000美元。数秒钟内她的电脑显示44,000美元.通过使用工资计算器,我知道该怎么开口.梅隆说.
通过使用再线房地产服务,她看到了出租房地产的彩色照片,包括详尽的房型与设施设计.当梅隆达到哥伦比亚的时候,她觉得以是心中有数.面试很成功第二天她被录用,薪资47,800美元.
上网的人中,并非只是求职的人数不断增加.越来越多的雇主招募新员工而使用互联网.
安杰拉·比勒是肯德基连锁店的职员招聘协调员负责中西部100家连锁店的呀招募工作,。今年初当比勒需要为印地安那州诺布尔斯维尔招聘一位总经理时,她就在肯德基网站和另两个招聘网站登出招聘启示。
回应者之一是34岁的斯科特·范科尔克。他从14岁起就一直在餐馆里工作,一年前他在一家玻璃制造厂担任主管,而现在正打算重操旧业。他把简历传真给比勒,她马上给予答复。两周后他们见面比勒给了范科特这份工作“互联网使用很方便而且很有效。” 比勒说,“他还奢望什么呢?”
