This week's Job Search Tips:
Networking for Hidden Jobs
As we previously discussed, the networking portion of your job search campaign should consist of contacting 25 to 30 people daily. Relative to your target companies, on a daily basis, you should be working on networking with your to 25 to 50 "A" companies and 50 to 75 "B" companies.
From your list of networking contacts and target companies, select those that are in your industry (or an aligned industry) and that are located within a realistic geographical area (i.e., one that is close enough to drive to and get a face-to-face meeting with the hiring authority).
Now pick the first 10 contacts/companies on that list and conduct enough initial research into them to confirm in your mind that at this time, with the limited information at your disposal, it makes sense for you to take things to the next level.
This is an excerpt from my book, The NEW Rules of Job Search - How to Land an Executive Job in the New Economy, Chapter 9, Page 141 - 142.
I look forward to helping you land that next great job you are looking for in 2013!
Take care,
