1.2(2.2)

Explain how to choose an employer in terms of own personal interests, knowledge, skills and job requirements

It is an important factor, the relationship between yourself and the employer; however there are other factors that have to be remembered.
Do you have the knowledge? Can you meet their requirements? Is it someone you’re happy to work for? 

When choosing an employer personal interest will be the key factor. What industry/career takes your interest? This is the starting point for most people at least. Through discovering this, you will be able to go ‘out into the real world’ and begin gaining experience and knowledge. 

When applying for a job you need know if you have a strong grasp on what you’ll actually be doing. You don’t want to turn up at a job interview and stare at them blankly when they ask questions. 
You also have to remember that you need to ‘shine’ when applying for a job and how you can show that you are one step ahead of the other applicants. Confidence in your knowledge, experience and skills would hopefully show that you are one step ahead of the other applicants and show that you are able to meet the requirements.

To enter a new career you will need to have had experience in the industry of your choice so you have at least a good idea of how it all works. You can share your experience with the employer, and furthermore your knowledge and skills.
When choosing an employer you have to know your capable of a full day’s work, whether that’s doing something practical/activity work all day or doing work on a computer all day.

One of the most important things however, is that you enjoy your employment and the people you work with!
