Job Search Seminar: Be Your Own Headhunter

This is an aggressive approach that many have called the butt kicking they needed to become more proactive in their job search.

If you are wondering how to create/use your network, how to find the hidden job market, be more aggressive with your job search approach or are relying on job boards to find jobs to apply to then this session is for you.

I will challenge you to think like a Headhunter and empower you to take control of your job search.

2.5 hours seems like a long time but I cover a lot of ground including:

Current economic and job statistics
Conduct a personal online audit
LinkedIn: optimize profile, search strings using keywords, title, company, skill set and location, how to connect
Social networking sites (Facebook, Twitter, Blogs, etc)
What to say and online to attract recruiters
Selling and marketing of you, would you hire you
Creating, using and supporting a network
Company source of hire, where do recruiters find candidates
Finding a job is a job and a contact sport
Where to find job postings
What are these hidden jobs people talk about, how do you find them
Research companies, decision makers, hiring managers and recruiters
Email: would to say
Follow up: when and how often
