Although "business as usual" is not a reality today, it does not mean we can't adapt. In fact, if we can find opportunity through the changes that have been thrust on us, we may discover better ways to reach our goals!
Job searching through online applications and hitting the "submit" button, presents nothing new---just more time performing an ineffective activity. I suggest improving your online networking skills---practicing your value proposition, implementing outreach
strategies and improving your communication skills by engaging in new business relationships.
You will get referred to hiring managers for a direct line to positions that are not yet posted.
We're good at this and I personally practice every part of this process, every day. My audience is different but the process of OUTREACH and NETWORKING is exactly the same as a candidate building relationships with peers and hiring managers. It works---proven by
our clients that find their jobs faster and learn to enjoy the process!
Applying online vs. taking control of your search…
One of my recent clients had been applying online for 5 months with little to no results. He was a strong executive with plenty of expertise and had worked with recognizable company brands.
Applying Online wasn’t working.
In under 2 months of our work together, he found an exciting position with a company that he wanted to work for, and the feeling was mutual—a WIN/WIN!
What were his key actions that led to his new job in under 2 months?
