Guaranteed Résumés
This week, I'd like to talk about networking.
Keep in mind that only about 5-10% of all
new jobs are posted in the classified ads or on the Internet. The rest are
filled by word
of mouth. And that means you should be out there networking, talking to
people about
your next job!
Your goal is to talk to as many people as possible about the job you seek.
And don't be
afraid to have others do some networking for you. As an example, my friend
got a job because
her mother played bridge with the wife of a company president. During
casual conversation, her
mother mentioned that she was looking for a job. A few days later, she had
an interview!
