Editor's Notes
- Also know when to leave a company, and why you’re leaving. Be clear in your direction and rationale.
- Recruiters - they don't work for you, they work for the companies. They don't care about placing YOU, they only care about filling the companies' available roles. According to TMIER.COM a large recruiting firm stated that the recruiting industry had about a 7% success rate, down from 14% from years earlier. Career consultants – I don't have a lot of experience with them, but they work for YOU, of course that also means YOU pay them. Ads/direct - Just don’t seem to be the best way at the moment - you're one of hundreds, if not thousands. Keywords in your resume are critical. Ladders did nothing for me, which I expected them to (moreso anyway). US DOL estimates 10% of people find jobs with this method. Networking - best bet. Especially since you should be fairly known in your company and prior companies - reach out to ALL who you've worked with, and you may be surprised what might surface. The company I'm moving on to was found through networking, and it was a 3 times prior SVP Finance guy who I really didn't work with much...
