Modern Job Search: Insider Knowledge and Strategies that Work

Not if you're smart. There are people out there who know how to connect job seekers and hiring managers much more efficiently. These people, like me, are corporate headhunters. Not everyone can work with a headhunter but anyone can use their methods. Like most of us, Karen, Anthony and Tom weren't thinking of 'job search' as a process when they started looking. They figured they would apply online, call or email friends and colleagues, and just keep doing it until something worked, no matter how long it took. Why? Because that's what everyone does. However by using the techniques in all three learned that there are better ways to achieve their career goals. About Me: I've been a corporate headhunter (contingency and retained executive recruiter) for almost 18 years. My clients have included ABB, BP (British Petroleum), Halliburton, Emerson, Trane, Flextronics, AGCO, Danaher, American Standard, Exterran, Cameron, Dell, Iomega, Ingersoll Rand, Whirlpool, Motorola, Hewlett Packard / Compaq, Hitachi, Thyssen-Krupp, Tyco Electronics, John Deere, Solectron, Black and Decker and many others. I know how hiring works, how to get to decision makers and how to make things happen. I've made a lot of money marketing, recruiting and placing candidates using the methods in my book. The people I've coached, like the real life Karen, Anthony, and Tom, all got jobs much more efficiently following my guidance. "Modern Job Search: Insider Knowledge and Strategies that Work" will teach you: Job Seekers today need more than just a good resume.

"Modern Job Search: Insider Knowledge and Strategies that Work" was written to help job seekers build relationships, start conversations and get jobs faster, more efficiently and more successfully than the standard apply and hope method.
