3 Calls. 3 Interviews. 1 Week!

3 Calls. 3 Interviews. 1 Week3 Calls. 3 Interviews. 1 Week? Singing a la The Brady Bunch Heres the storyof a smart jobseeker His name is Shean. His professional background welches sales in the transportation services sector. But he was looking for a career change ideally, into the medical device arena, where he could still apply his sales skills. In order to make his transition sooner rather than later, Shean took advantage of a few key job search strategies. Heres precisely what he did to get 3 calls for 3 interviews in 1 week.1) Avoid the KILLER mistake that will automatically make the recruiter ignore you. You know what recruiters dont care about what you do. You know what they do care about? How well you do what you do. Theres a tremendous difference between presenting the job, and presenting your performance in the job.Shean came to the table with advanced sales skills and specific metrics to prove his value. We showcased those directly on his resume and LinkedIn profile. (Ther es no longer any such concept as saving your best material for the interview.)2) Bypass HR and have the right recruiters reach out to you. Its important to understand 2 things you must be on LinkedIn to make any serious progress in your job search. And you must use LinkedIn as a platform not to search all day, but for you to be searched for.Shean spoke the recruiters language, accenting his profile with the search terms recruiters would likely use to find someone like him. By the way, those search terms are not things like aggressive, or dynamic. We expertly weaved in key words highly-specific to the industry he wanted to be in.3) Break into the hidden job market, even if you only know 1-2 headhunters. Job search is mora about who you know than what you know. But when you feel you dont know anybody, there are some very specific steps to take to change that.Shean didnt just build the profile and hope recruiters would magically come to it. He promoted his profile. That means seeking o ut the relevant recruiters in his targeted industry, connecting with them, and engaging in conversation to show his thought leadership.Results Shean successfully made the career transition he wanted.
