Resumes...

It is often said that “resumes are your ticket to job searching success.” Resumes are still the not so secret weapon to landing a job.

You won’t win a lottery if you don’t have a ticket and you are unlikely to be invited for a job interview if you don’t have a dynamic, effective resume that features you as the solution to a problem. Your resume is your ticket that leads to being invited for an interview where you can expand upon your value.

An effective, eye-catching resume will get you an interview. We show you how to craft and fine-tune a magnetic resume that will attract an employer’s attention.

Are you networking?

Many job search industry professionals say that networking is the single most effective strategy for landing your next job. You may think you don’t know anyone who can help you with your job search. But you know more people than you think, and they are willing to help you. However, you need to reach out and connect with them first.

“It’s not who you know… it’s who knows you know…”

You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work helps you build upon your existing network of contacts and take it to the next level, an opportunity-creating machine.

References…

Do you have your professional and personal references in place? Are they primed to be your personal cheerleaders? No? Well they should be.

You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work provides you with proven tactics to leverage your references to help nail the job for you.

Job Interviewing…

While looking for a new job and going though hiring interviews can be exciting for some people, for many of us it can be a stressful experience. Is the thought of a job interview keeping you awake at night?

You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work systematically builds your skills to excel at interview questions and help you sleep at night.
From our experience, one of the biggest problems job seekers often face is they feel they are coming from an inferior position and they don't have a lot of personal power.

The belief being that the Employer has the superior position and has all the power. Sound familiar?
Yes, they have the job and they have the power to give you the job ... or not. 
What you may not realize is many Hiring Managers are under similar pressures as you, the job seeker. They are accountable to their superiors should the person they hire not work out. They have the pressure of finding the right candidate for the vacancy they need to fill. 
You're Hired! Job Search Strategies That Work levels the playing field between you and the employer.

Your task is to become the only choice. The right choice!
