When you're in the process of changing your career and interviewing for other positions, Excel can help you keep track of career opportunities and job search information.
Use a template to log job contacts, interviews, and career information
To keep a log of job contacts, interviews, and career information, you can take advantage of the Job Search Log template, which was designed in Excel to do just this. The template provides the following worksheets (worksheet: The primary document that you use in Excel to store and work with data. Also called a spreadsheet. A worksheet consists of cells that are organized into columns and rows; a worksheet is always stored in a workbook.):
- Networking Contacts, which provides columns for keeping track of your acquaintances and their contact information.
- Interviews, which provides columns for storing interview-related information, such as interview dates and names, phone numbers, and addresses of interviewers.
- Career Web Sites, which provides columns for keeping track of Web sites you use to post your resume.
