Tips for finding a job during a pandemic

One-off, year-round, seasonal or for the summer… There are several ways to look for a job: by responding to advertisements, by making spontaneous applications or by registering with temporary agencies. In the first case, it suffices to follow the process while adapting the CV and cover letter to the targeted position. , recalls Camille Chikhaoui, youth informant at Crij Pays de la Loire.

In the second case, the health crisis is a game-changer. You can always leave CVs in open shops. For closed places, two solutions: go to the website of companies that have a space to spontaneously apply or call.

Solicit your network

Word of mouth works, especially with family, friends or neighbors … You can also write classified ads that you post near your home. This way of proceeding works well for personal services., notes Camille.

Target sectors

With the health restrictions, the sectors that recruit are moving. In hotels, restaurants and tourism, it’s complicated at the moment. On the other hand, other areas are recruiting more: cleaning companies, mass distribution, personal services, etc.

Stay on standby

What is true today may change tomorrow. It is therefore necessary to remain on standby: by consulting the sites and applications of job offers (Jobaviz du Crous), by creating alerts (Indeed) or by activating notifications on social networks (LinkedIn). There are also Facebook groups, like Job Nantes, notes Camille. Finally, for summer jobs, ad hoc actions are still carried out by the Youth Information Points.
