Do You Want to Climb to the Top of Your Career?

Career counselors often advise keeping an up-to-date resume because “you never know what might happen.” Considering recent events, their advice should be taken seriously. Climber.com are a welcome addition to the Internet because they help job seekers keep their names on employers’ minds.
Climber.com is a cross between a social networking site and a job board. It’s for passive job seekers, and employers who are looking for talented, experienced professionals. Job seekers can create a profile, complete the Work Value Assessment, then wait for employers to come to them with offers.
It should be stressed that Climber.com is NOT for active job seekers. Anyone who needs a job right away should not rely on Climber.com. It’s very much like LinkedIn in that a profile is completed and connections can be made; however, it’s also like a job board because once a brief profile has been completed, jobs fitting the job seeker’s skill set will appear.
“Keeping your irons in the fire” is not a bad thing to do in today’s economy and uncertain job market. In fact, it’s the most sensible thing anyone can do to ensure that they are prepared for anything that might happen in their careers.
