Education, experience – and extensive research will get you the right job.

In another episode of “An Education That Works”, Kenneth Kinney of Victory University has interviewed the Vice President and Manager of Temporary Services, a division of the Gateway Group, Jered Haddad and discussed with him about the current job market in the local Memphis area and career opportunities it offers for the job seekers.



Rising Employment Opportunities


When Kenneth asked about the rising job market, Haddad said that the job market in Memphis is currently flooding with opportunities. There is a dearth of qualified candidates for various positions. Employers are looking for potential candidates to fill the vacancies. As far as industries are concern, departments like healthcare, engineering, IT, etc are growing up presenting ample opportunities for job seekers to find a right place to work.

He also said that candidates should develop their skills that are required for these jobs which can be built through education from the classroom and from the outside world.


When discussed about the services provided by the Temporary Services as an employment firm, Haddad said that the firm is looking for potential candidates to train them in the different areas. This training should help them to establish a career for themselves.

The Job Search Process


Haddad also explained about the steps involved in the job search process by the Temporary Services. He said that the first step in the job search process is the preparation of a well-written resume. The resume will be prepared based on the experience and accomplishments of the job seeker. This resume will then be sent across various organizations to schedule interviews.


Talking more about the resume, Haddad said that a resume should be created based on a basic structure that involves drafting the necessary information about the candidate that can be highlighted against the opportunities available in the job market. He also added that a resume should be tailored to reflect the skill sets that the employers would find eligible to hire a candidate for a particular position.

Haddad stressed on the importance of an employment firm for new graduates to avail necessary guidance. He said that these candidates should look out for new opportunities that are available in the job market with an open mind. They should be ready to pick up jobs that are even temporary to get in to the workforce.
