Attention Job Seekers: Career Networking Seminar Date - Tuesday March 29, 2016... How To Navigate The Hidden Job Market NOTE: This is a live, in-person event/meeting The percentage of unadvertised positions has been estimated to be as high as 80% if not higher. This would indicate only a few of the jobs are posted. Given these percentages, engaging in a job search can be frustrating, thus tapping into the hidden job market has proven to be one of the most effective ways to shorten what seems to you to be a frustrating job search. Tapping into these unadvertised positions requires a targeted job search strategy, extensive networking and a crystal clear value proposition. The hardest parts of any job search are1) knowing who you should be contacting about potential jobs and 2) the silence that follows after sending in a resume. You know that you are perfect for the position, so why aren’t they calling? Remember: The vast majority of employment opportunities were never really openings advertised to the masses. They came about because an individual in control of their own career communicated who they are, what they do and what they can do for an employer and they were heard and appreciated. Make networking and interviewing your #1 goal a new job is waiting to unfold!! Join George E. Schonewolf, career consultant and coach at this live seminar as he maps out an effective strategy to show participants how to find and make contact with the right people who can help you with your career, make stronger connections with their potential employers, and make yourself stand out from the competition.
