Winery Compliance Job

Take a quick look at winejobs.com and you’ll see what I’m talking about. I went recently to their site and entered “compliance” in the search by keyword box. The list of positions which involve some type of compliance duties ranged from winemaker to enologist to office manager to accountant to tasting room manager. That pretty much covers the spectrum of positions on most winery sites! And they’re all responsible for compliance! So for an individual who is interested in finding a position that is limited to just compliance the offerings are fairly slim.

So what should you do to keep the employer from learning of your job search? A secret is no longer a secret if you tell co-workers or think you can get some job hunting in on company time. Never use your company email address or phone number in your undercover job search. Be sure you have a professional message on your answering machine. If you have to make a call back do it on your lunch hour. Further, if you start taking sick leave, or three-hour lunches for your job interviews; where you have to start telling stories about your absences the jig will soon be up. If you have to schedule an interview, tell the interviewer that you are busy at work but can meet after work and perhaps during lunch.

Before Applying for a Job

However, to stand a realistic shot at landing the job you want, there are certain questions you MUST ask yourself. Furthermore, the more honest you are in answering them, the greater your chances of success.

While you may possess all the enthusiasm in the world for a particular job, qualifications are another matter entirely. Yes, we all want a leadership role with all the perks it implies. But the difference between a Software Engineer and a Director of IT is vast, and if you’re looking to make a jump of this magnitude, be prepared for a fight. Understand going in that you’re competing with candidates who have at least one, and possibly several Director of IT jobs under their belt. What makes you a viable candidate? Perhaps more accurately, what do you have that they don’t? If you can’t answer these questions satisfactorily, then you’re probably aiming too high.

It is no secret that free apps get more attention on the marketplace. It is only natural to want something for free. It is also important to take into account that if you are looking for current openings, there is a good chance that you are currently unemployed. Even when receiving unemployment benefits, you need to be on a tight spending budget. It is true that some apps are worth paying for, but why when you can search from your Android phone for free?

We would have to say absolutely not!Sometimes, we get so acclimated to that personal address that we simply forget about how others might perceive it. Add in the close scrutiny of a prospective employer, and your resume containing that social email address COULD be destined for the round file. Dead-giveaways unwittingly revealed in your email address name can lift the curtain about the ‘personal’ you… and absolutely need to be tightened up, or even replaced in favor of more ‘sanitized’ versions.

You sent a focused and well written thank you letter the day after the job interview. You did everything right. Now comes the bad news.
