The 10 Rules You Need to Effectively Search for Esthetician Jobs

Esthetician Jobs

Are you searching for esthetician jobs that will put your name on the map and help to jump-start your career? It’s possible to land a lucrative job when you’re fresh out of esthetician school. It won’t happen overnight, but with determination, chances are that you’ll be working before you know it.

Improve your chances to break into the beauty business with these basic rules.

1.  Start Applying Before Graduating

It’s a good idea to apply for jobs before graduation. To potential employers, it shows initiative and dedication to your work. The longer you wait to apply for jobs, the harder it is to find a job that you enjoy.

2.  Make Your Portfolio Top Priority

Employers appreciate a good portfolio that showcases your work. Having professional photos that accurately show what skills you have is key, and makes for a good overall presentation.

3.  Proof Your Resumé

If you submit a resumé that contains grammatical or factual errors, employers may not take your application seriously. Make sure that you proofread your cover letter and resumé to check for spelling errors and ensure all of the information is correct.

4.  Network Online and Off

Due to the popularity of the Internet, it makes it easier to network than ever before. It’s important to have a client base online as well as in your community.

5.  Research the Company

It is never a bad idea to research the companies for which you’re interested in working. Researching gives you a better understanding of the field of work that you’re entering, and helps you to narrow down your search for employment.

6.  Avoid Esthetician Jobs You Don’t Want

Don’t waste your time on employment that you won’t enjoy. You took the time to go to school for a profession that you’re passionate about. You owe it to yourself to find the career path that best suits your expertise.

7.  Dress for Success

In this industry, it’s important to look the part. Clients take note of how well you take care of yourself and the dedication it takes to look that way. Having pride in your own appearance encourages others to do the same. Oftentimes, this helps to establish your client base.

8.  Keep Social Profiles Professional

These days, many employers are using social networks to research prospective employees. Inappropriate posts on your Facebook or Twitter accounts could cost you a job before you get the chance at an interview.

9.  Send Thank You Notes

A thank you note or card can keep you on the employer’s mind after the interview. It never hurts to show your appreciation for meeting with you.

10.  Further Your Education to Increase your Competitiveness

In today’s competitive world, its takes more than basic training to get a job as an esthetician. The more educated you are, the more appealing you’ll be to an employer.
