Chicago, Ill. (PRWEB) November 2, 2008 -- PerfectJob Software will participate in Job Action Day, on November 3, which was created by Quintessential Careers to encourage job seekers to confront the current economic crisis head-on and take action steps to improve their careers. Perfect Job Software helps individuals systematically launch, manage and organize the job search process.

According to Steven D. Davies, founder and president of PerfectJob Software, savvy job seekers find employment faster by combining tried-and-true methods such as networking, referrals and working with recruiters with higher tech tools such as job boards, resume submission services and social networking sites.

Developing a system to organize the process is critical, according to Davies, who offers these tips:

1. Prioritize activities or tasks, but assign specific due dates when you have made a commitment to someone else. Put a realistic start date on the item that allows enough time for completion.

2. Maintain momentum by entering a follow-on activity whenever you complete another one. One third of job seekers stop in their second month of looking. During this dangerous month, try to add an additional task or two at the end of each day, to ensure you continue to move forward.

3. Be aggressive about completing your tasks. Try to finish all the critical items each day.

4. Each day, add at least one new task that will expand the universe of jobs you are pursuing. This might include sending an inquiry to an industry leader that you've always admired or calling a small company that is growing in a different field from yours. Become comfortable trying new things: it keeps you more nimble and the search more interesting.

PerfectJob is an intuitive, fully integrated system that incorporates organizational tools with expert coaching to help job-seekers efficiently manage their search and land a new job more quickly.
It is delivered today as a desktop application through Internet download, and will be available later this year as an online service. On October 24, the company released v1.0.04; enhancements include more help at start-up, reminders for important dates and deadlines, plus automatic back-up and software update checks. Job seekers also can now receive reminders and updates via mobile devices.

Unlike any other organization tool available today, PerfectJob provides best practices and coaching to keep job seekers motivated and on track. It streamlines and simplifies administrative tasks, allowing job seekers to focus on the search itself, not the process.
