014 - Entry Level Job Search Hacks

Entering the “real world” is a stressful, overwhelming time for young adults and their parents. Most graduating seniors come out of school well-educated, but without any idea how to actually land a job, let alone the RIGHT job. While they lack basic job search skills, they also make mistakes at all stages of the hiring process that instantly disqualify them from consideration – without ever realizing it. But believe it or not, it’s actually easy to make a great impression on hiring managers at the entry level. You just need to know how. So, what exactly can recent graduates do to secure their dream jobs as quickly as possible?

For answers, we’re turning to John Del Vecchio. Professionally, John has been in the insurance business for three decades, and has been an Owner/Partner with Park City Insurance Group in Connecticut for the past twenty years. John is also the father of two boys, both of whom are perfect examples of young adults who landed on their feet and launched bright careers right out of the gate upon graduating from college. Much of their success was due to John’s excellent parental guidance and support. Today, John shares some sage advice for other parents who might be feeling confused about how best to set their own kids up for success. If your child has recently graduated or will be graduating soon (or if you yourself are a 20-something looking for some help landing in a great job!), this episode is for you.
