Searching on job portals and applying for jobs or asking friends for reference and more are ways to hunt for a job but one should avoid making the following mistakes while finding a job.<\/p>"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1511266281874","data":"1. Applying For A Number Of Opportunities:<\/b><\/p>Students commonly apply for a number of opportunities, in fact, many apply for every opportunity that they come across in the hopes of landing one job but this can be detrimental.

But the employers usually don't bother looking at the resume once you are in front of them in the interview room. When you are in the interview room, focus on letting them know that you are an effective communicator and your chances of landing the job will increase exponentially. Showing off communication skills in the interview is a sure shot way of landing the job!<\/p>"}]
