In these tough times when joblessness is so rampant, it’s become even harder for graduates who are coming out fresh from the university. In response to this, Fuzu has built resources that will help you kick start your career successfully.
Building a career and a respectable name in the industry requires one to be consistent and invest in the same.
Luckily the new revamped Fuzu platform has amazing resources to give you pointers, guidelines, and checkpoints as you journey towards success in your career. Let’s look at some of the resources you can leverage on.
Fuzu Learn
Employers have long complained of the existing skills gap among graduates leaving university in their thousands. They don’t come to the workforce “work-ready”, they need their skills to be sharpened.
Therefore, courses are a nice place, to begin with. I know you come charged up to start your search journey because you’re hopeful of getting a job. When graduates come out of university, they come with a very fresh air of optimism before the reality of joblessness fizzles it out.
However, Fuzu prepares you for success. The courses are very industry-specific and relevant. For example, if you aspire to be a hotelier, you can take the course titled ‘Hotel room service: taking an order' to sharpen your skills.
Once you complete the course it is updated on your profile that you have completed the course and are duly certified. This will help you stand out to employers as you submit your applications on Fuzu.
Fuzu Forum
The forum section is filled with lots of articles that give insights into the job market. It cuts across the whole hierarchy. Whether you are an entry-level or a senior-level manager, there are lots of insightful articles for your career. All you need to do is to type a simple keyphrase such as “shifting career”, “tips for an interview” in the search box and a variety of articles with that topic will show on your screen.
Secondly, the blog section also features real-life inspirational stories of people who have walked the career path and have established their businesses. As a graduate, you should not only think about being employed by someone.
You can start your own business and create employment opportunities e.g Under entrepreneurship, Fuzu has several resources to help you reach that goal. We have interviewed various business owners and documented their journey. Read up on these stories and be inspired to start your own outfit. See the mistakes they made and learn from them so you can understand what makes them successful.
Instant feedback
Wouldn’t it be interesting to know if you are a good match for a role before you apply and see how you rank against top applicants? Now you can do all that with Fuzu’s instant feedback!
How does this help your job search? When you see what other applicants possess and you lack, you will fill your deficit so as to improve your chances, for instance, if exceptional applicants for a sales role have a certification in inbound sales, you should also do the course to acquire the certification.
In the job-hunting business, it’s all about standing out from the crowd. Instant feedback will help you see what helps other candidates stand out so that you too can go the extra mile.
