How to Avoid 5 Common Mistakes that Prevent Job Seekers from Landing that Next Great Job

Tip #1 – Most people struggle with their job search because they focus on landing a job. FOCUS on solving a business problem. Jobs exist because problems exist, not the other way around.

Tip #2 – Most people make the mistake of posting resumes on job boards and sending them out to every possible employer, regardless of the potential fit. FOCUS on identifying a short list of companies that interest you. Less is more.

Tip #3 – Most people spend an incredible amount of time networking in search of an introduction to a hiring manager or a recruiter (who may not even have any opportunities to offer). This is a 1-step process that seldom works. FOCUS on building a support team. By definition, these are people who are influential, well connected and willing to help you for free. Finding these people is a 3-step process.

Tip #4 – Most people don’t know how to conduct effective research. FOCUS on discovering information your competition doesn’t know. Anyone can go to a website or order an annual report. If you only know what everyone else knows, why would the company need you? Critical business information is never published in annual reports or on websites. And yet, it’s readily available if you know where to look.

Tip #5 – When most people interview, they make the fatal mistake of talking about themselves and their work histories. FOCUS on discussing ideas that will make the company money. Help decision makers solve the universal problem they all care about solving.

Job Search Data
These 3 Data Points Work Against Every Job Seeker

Data Point #1 – CHANGE is coming and you need to prepare. According to an ABC News report, the average job today lasts only 3.2 years. Don’t wait until you’re on your way out the door to learn that traditional job search approaches are slow and painful.

Data Point #2 – The COMPETITION is overwhelming. You’re competing against 52% of the people that have jobs but are thinking about making a change in the next 6 months – not just the 4%, 5%, or 6% unemployment rate.

Data Point #3 – Job Search is EXPENSIVE. If you’re looking for a $50k per year job, you’re losing $200 per day for every day you’re not working. And that doesn’t include the value of lost benefits like health insurance and retirement contributions.

Learn how to leverage these data points and turn the tables in your favor with the High Impact Job Search system. If traditional job search methods have failed you, and the data suggests that they will, this patent-pending approach offers a proven system for landing a great job and advancing your career.
