Many GovLoop members are seeking employment and wonder what might be the tricks to finding a job here on GovLoop. Here are a few ideas:
1. Post a notice in the Job sections - similar to Craigslist. There are people looking for jobs and job seekers looking for employees. That's your best place to start to make a solid connection.
2. Another thing you can do is search on GovLoop Members using your key professional terms to find others here who may be in your desired profession. Reach out to them and ask for an informational interview to learn more about potential positions and to start building key relationships. Please don't spam several individuals or send multiple emails. There's often a fine line between persistence and pestering, eh?
3. Consider looking for Groups or Forums that match your area of interest. If you contribute valuable insight or resources to those groups, you'll likely get noticed and catch the attention of potential employers. Again, we'd ask that you not post a comment like "I'm looking for a job" or post your resume in these sections, but engage in the dialogue and your contributions will speak for themselves.
