Finding a Job / Job Promotion

You can find or get a better job using:

Private job agencies. They provide job referrals for people looking for a job. They are usually free of charge, but some may charge fees. They can be found in your local phone book. Many specialize in specific jobs, like office positions.

Public schools usually have job counselors who will help you get a job.

Friends and relatives are a very good source of information for a job. A boss will hire a relative or friend of an employee based on personal recommendation.

Help wanted signs are invitations for people to come apply for a job. Taking the time to apply for them can provide great results for you.

Job magazines are free magazines in which many companies advertise their openings. It's a good idea to use them when looking for a job.

The Internet. You can access many places on the Internet that will help you get a job at no cost to you. You don't have to be a computer expert.

If you want a better job, your level of education will help. More education usually means a better job.

There is no question, in the United States, the better your English, the better the job.
