Chapter 1: Getting Ready to Job Hunt

Akhona Eland October 19, 2026

Most people start job hunting by sending the same CV to every job they see. That is the slowest way to get hired. This chapter helps you do the groundwork first: know what you can offer, decide what you are aiming for, and get your documents and contact details ready so you can apply the same day you see a good job.

Chapter outcomes

By the end of this chapter you will be able to:

  • Identify your skills, including ones you learnt outside formal work

  • Choose two or three realistic job targets to aim for

  • Gather the documents employers usually ask for

  • Set up a professional email address and phone manner
