Introduction

If you have been applying for adhoc jobs in Singapore but you are not getting interview invites, there is a huge possibility that you are doing everything wrong. Many people make mistakes when they are applying for jobs these days. They have no clarity of what kind of jobs can satisfy their requirements. If you want to stand a chance, you have to avoid doing the following:

Not knowing what you want

The first mistake that many people make is not knowing and understanding what they want. You should start by narrowing down your job search to specific titles and even companies that you would wish to work for. You should try to come up with a list of responsibilities that match your goals and what you are looking for.

Not researching the company

Another common mistake that many people do make is not researching the company you are applying for. Many employers will take their time to read a cover letter and a resume of a person who had researched very well about a company. That is why it is advisable to learn to adapt the cover letter to each company.
