Thanks to my Twitter friends @teresamoretti, @JobHuntOrg and @DaisyWright, I came upon this article by Paul Dodd and Sarah Welstead, two professionals who are passionate about helping companies hire great people and branding strategies. Their post, Attributes of Highly Attractive Candidates - offers timeless tips for job seekers who need to mobilize a successful search.
In a nutshell, they suggest that applicants can win recruiter friends by:
1. Saving recruiters time.
2. Helping solve recruiters' problems.
3. Conduct good research.
4. Know how to use social media.
5. Are passionate about their work.
6. Give clients a reason to be inspired.
Read the rest of their post and suggestions HERE.
It's a great idea to think of turning the tables...Don't think about what a recruiter (or ANYONE) can do for you - focus on what you can do for THEM to build a great relationship!
If you want it to be all about you - hire a coach! Visit my website for lots of free advice and information about my services to help you get your job search off to a successful start. www.keppiecareers.com.
