getting the best job

Reading the recruitment pages in the national newspaper can be an entertaining past time, even though you are not looking for work. There so much information available, some of the advertisements are very informative and eye-opening. It describe the jobs and the expectations, reading them would give ideas on the type of jobs available in the market.

There are also advertisements made through agencies and recruitment houses, with as little information and minimum details, and in some cases the name of the potential employer is not not even given. I would recommend not to consider these advertisement, for all you know, you may be applying for your own position in the company you are working.

With the internet technology, the company can make a headline worldwide. You need an interesting job and the skill to market it. Remember the job that made the headline a few years ago, a job in the Hamilton Island off the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland Australia. The job had over 34,000 entrants.

Another interesting job just creep up.. a premium chocolate brand, Cadbury is looking for a chocolate tester, and the job pays 35,000 pounds. Who ever says that you have to be smart and earn a shiny college degree to get a well paid job.
