How To Commit Job Search Suicide With Advertised Job Openings!

Going after advertised jobs is a surefire way to guarantee you lose . . . lose weeks and months of looking for a job.

Responding to advertised job openings--whether it's online or in the paper--is a red herring! Why? Because everybody thinks that's how you get a job.

Here?s what you've been told. You look up an advertised job in the newspaper, online, in other publications and with agencies and recruiters. Then you apply for the job by sending your resume. And wait for mail or the phone to ring--for someone to invite you to an interview.

When it doesn't ring, you rewrite or tweak your resume and then send it to a bunch of other advertised jobs.

Here's what's wrong with that scenario. It's one of the best kept secrets of job finding.

First of all, an advertised job is rarely representative of actual openings. It usually represents feelers that an organization is putting out to see what's out there.

Secondly, these listings are not posted by the person who's responsible for making the hiring decision. You will go through several screenings before you get to that person . . . assuming you even get a screening.

Thirdly, since your only form of communication is your resume, you're leaving it up to someone who's hired to do his/her best to screen you out. In other words, people who don't know you will be making decisions about whether you're qualified for a job they themselves know very little about.

And finally, when you answer a job listing, you're creating your own competition. Do you have any idea how many dozens of others are participating in this crap shoot--each one anticipating, just like you, that he/she is absolutely the best qualified for the advertised job?

I think you can begin to see why following this misleading approach to the job market takes forever! Statistically, the numbers just don?t work for you . . . unless you've got months to wait for your next job.

Fortunately, there are some exciting ways to beat the odds. A good plan of action can show you step-by-step how to lock up a good job in as little as two weeks. You can be meeting face-to-face with hiring decision-makers in a matter of days.

When you use a proven plan rather than trying to do it on your own you can bypass all the old-fashioned traditional job search methods. Those are the one we were all brought up on. For example, you believe that the only way to find a job is by depending on your resume for landing a good job.

Unfortunately for you, employers could care less what you used to do for someone else. These days, their needs and expectations require you to take a completely different approach. Employers want to know that you've taken the time to learn something about their organization's needs. And have brought some ideas to the table.

The answer to finding a good job fast is to follow a plan that shows you all the 21st Century approaches.
