Even if you have a decent resume prepared with the help of your helper and friends, please make sure to polish it with professionals. You can get free professional help from places like your school, college, or university. Counselors from these institutes will be happy to help.  Another place is your local (Texas state) Workforce Commission. In Texas, we have TWC (Texas Workforce Commission) and Texas Workforce Solutions. 

​

Please check for spelling, grammatical mistakes, and the structure  of your resume. 

Please make sure that your cover letter is truly targeted and does not look like a mass cover letter!

Career Counsellors of your educational institutes are a great help for this. Please make sure to have enough time to give you the needed attention. 

This is a critical step for a successful landing in a satisfying job. Nowadays, many jobs are posted on social media. So, you need to be active on social media and keep in touch with your friends who are either looking for a job or already have a job.
