HERE are five top tips when searching for a job in 2020, according to Jobcen- tre Plus. 1 Keep your CV updated Be prepared to tailor it to the needs of the jobs you are applying for. Your CV will determine whether you get an interview. 2 Log your good work outside work Don't be afraid to tell employers about your hobbies, volunteering or organisa- tional skills. 3 Turn negatives to positives Admit when a project has not gone to plan and how you learned from it. Always emphasise strengths. 4 Do your research Employers may ask: “What do you know about us?” Show an interest in the company, its team and work. 5 Get support There are many routes available to you at your local Jobcen- tre, like gaining experience through work placements or going through a sector-based work academy.


New start for new year


NEW year, new challenge? As we head into 2020, are you looking for a new job? Perhaps it's time to move on or


land the career step-up you've been looking for. Maybe you're getting back


into the world of work or search- ing for a niche in retirement.


If that is your goal in 2020,


you’re not alone. Recent research has shown


that two thirds of us may well be looking for a new or, at least, bet- ter job this year. Well, you've come to the right


place. That’s because Downs Mail has just massively expanded
