Here are some of the more common strategies and guidelines. The successful job seeker masters these skills. Get out there and circulate your resume. Give it to anyone who might help you get a job or who might know someone who can help you, especially: Employers with advertised job openings Employers with no advertised job openings Employment agencies Vocational and college placement offices Personal and professional networking contacts People you list as references Executive recruiters Your instructors   Tips for Using Your ResumeResumes should be sent to a person by name.

It will take extra effort, but do your research and find out the name and title of the appropriate person to whom your resume should be sent.
