July 30, 2010, Newsletter Issue #160: Company Research for Job Search

Tip of the Week

Researching a potential employer is not only important in crafting your resume and cover letter and for preparing for your interview - its also important for establishing whether or not the company is a good fit for you.

One of the great job search tips: there are many different resources for finding information about a company. Here are a few of the most reliable resources:

• The company's website (perhaps the most important resource)
• Hoover's Online
• Dun & Bradstreet
• Employees
• Library
• News

The wonderful thing about the internet is that you probably can do all the job search research from the comfort of your home. If not, your local library is a great resource!
