As well as a suit, it’s important to take pride in your hair. Learn how to wear your hair in a professional manner. You don’t need to strip yourself of your personality, but try to keep yourself looking tidy and clean cut. Being scruffy will get you nowhere, unless you’re a genius.

Get used to answering your phone promptly and avoid missing calls. You never know who it could be on the other end, if you’re applying for jobs regularly online you should have companies calling you at least three times a week. It’s important to have a pen and pad ready at all times to write down notes, for example addresses and interview times.

Being sharp is good, if you mumble and stutter on the phone you’ll get nowhere. A tip that always works is to smile while you’re on the phone, this will increase your confidence and although the person on the other end cannot see you they will know you’re smiling and the conversation will be a lot easier and free flowing. If you’re not too confident as a person and you struggle with conversation, be as social as possible. Meet up with friends in your spare time and talk on the phone as much as possible.+ n% l.

Your e-mails are of great importance. It’s important to do some research to ensure your e-mails are structured correctly and formal. Always read over your message before you send it to ensure you don’t come across rude and to spot any silly spelling mistakes. With CV’s, take the same approach and get family/friends to check it and suggest improvements./ q! ^8 a4 R; V. O, q
