Using Pancake Day To Get Employment

I bet you’re wondering how am I going to get job seeking, candidate attraction, social media and pancakes into one blog post, well I just done it!

What I would like to chat about though is how job seekers can use Pancake Day to get noticed.

Of course this post isn’t going to appeal to all job seekers, however if you’re a chef, an events organiser, a budding journalist, a photographer, or a fashion designer, then you could definitely use Pancake Day to get noticed.

What you need to know is that on Pancake Day there’s a lot of people interested in pancakes, they’ll be sharing pancake comments, pancake photos, pancake videos, pancake vines and retreating pancake fillings. Can you ride this wave of interest in pancakes? Of course you can!

Chefs

So you might be a particular type of chef, but think about how you could put a spin on the pancake, perhaps a different ingredient to get people talking. If you could create something unique for pancake day and showcase it on your blog or on your Pinterest board, then the traffic that comes to see it may look to see what else you create. Remember that the more shares you get then the more opportunities you get to be noticed, a recruiter for a top hotel might get to see your creation.

Events organiser

You dream about being a top events organiser but employers want experience, so go and get some. A pancake flipping day can be great fun, it’s also a great way to raise money for charity and raise your profile at the same time. Putting on small events like a Pancake flipping day all helps towards gaining experience to prove to employers you’re the person for the job.

Journalist 

Get an interview with a local restaurant who are putting pancakes on the menu and use the interview as part of your portfolio for employers. If you’ve recorded the interview you could create a podcast as well as turning into a blog interview.

Photographer 

Branch out into food photography on Pancake Day. Have fun with the photos, savoury and sweet pancakes may help open doors to jobs you hadn’t thought about.

Fashion designer

This is a quirky one, what about designing an outfit for Pancake Day? I’m sure it would be the type of creation that Lady Ga Ga would love!

So remember use the #hashtags with your posts tomorrow #pancakeday  #pancake and use of the day to get noticed.
