Finding Jobs Ain't What It Used To Be . . . The Competition Can Eat you Alive!
OK. We live in a highly competitive society. But when it comes to finding jobs competition can get downright nasty. Unfortunately, we don’t recognize the problem because we’re rarely required to meet face-to-face with the person who’s in competition for the job we’re dying to have. Your prospective employer is not going to hand you a list of candidates you have to beat out for the job. As a result we get complacent. Out of sight, out of mind, we think. So you’re not prepared sharply enough to do battle with your competitors. But, believe me, they’re there. And you better have a strategy or two to deal with job search competitors at the risk of losing out to them without even knowing it. Most of us think of competition in terms of finding jobs using traditional job search methods. That’s the kind most of us have been brought up to think is the way to look for jobs. You know . . . prepare a resume, post it on some job sites, mass distribute it to advertised job openings, email a bunch of companies or some agencies and recruiters. And then wait for an invitation for an interview. If we’re operating in that kind of traditional mindset, then our job search competitors are paper tigers. In other words, we think whoever has the best resume beats the competition. That couldn’t be further from the truth. Finding jobs in the 21st Century job marketplace goes way beyond those traditional, old-fashioned job search methods. In fact, instead of eliminating job search competitors, it produces them! When you post your resume on a job site like Monster or Hot Jobs . . . when you answer a job opening ad or distribute your resume to a bunch of organizations or agencies . . . you’re creating your competition. You’re putting yourself right in the middle of everyone else who’s going after that job. It could be hundreds, even thousands. You’ve just dramatically reduced your odds of even getting a hearing, much less a job. The only way to eliminate your job search competitors is to establish a unique one-on-one relationship with a prospective employer. And do it without coming on, hand in hand, looking for a job. To do that you need a plan . . . one that can walk you through the up-to-date techniques for finding jobs. A comprehensive plan can show you exactly how to do establish that kind of non-competitive relationship. And it can show you how to beat out the competition and get in front of your next boss in a matter of days. In fact, if you follow a good plan carefully, you can be entertaining a job offer in as little as two weeks. Sure takes the sting out of job search competition!
