Jobs can be found in News Stories. Yes, they can.

When you read the newspaper, or listen to the news on the radio or TV, do so with your job search in mind.

Knowing when a new business is coming to town, a new project happening or an event taking place can show you where your skills and experience can be put to use.

A new hotel coming? Not only is there construction, but there will be all the products and services needed related to decorating, supplies of all kinds, and eventually staff.

They may need a connection to a charter bus service, or taxi service for their guests, and various other contract guest services, including hairdressing, facials and massage.

They may want tour guides, or shopping assistants and a galaxy of other products and services.

And that is only a few of the things that will be connected with this new hotel.

By identifying how this opportunity could be of benefit to you, you can get in on the ground floor - you can contact the hotel before they start looking for someone with your skills, offer your services and avoid the competition from others who can offer the same.

Be creative. No, a new hotel will not have a human resources office on the main floor - because the main floor isn't built yet!

If it's a chain, you can contact another hotel of the same chain and find out the information, or visit their website. What ever information you do have about this happening, do not be afraid to follow up on it, ask questions, and eventually you will find the person you need.

Whatever the news story you hear, consider what it could mean in terms of work for you, and follow up. Don't give up because the person to contact is not obvious. Dig deep and gain your reward.

Have a great resume ready, and you will probably be rewarded for your persistence and determination.
