Job search - what kind of you?
Job seekers can search for as many types of jobs as possible.
But the global rise in unemployment has created a new wave of job applicants, many of whom have not experienced the job search process in years. The result is that many disaffected job seekers, who feel that their job search efforts are not being appreciated by the recruitment profession, lead to an increase in the number of job seekers in the long run.
However, if they know what kind of job they are looking for, they will know what kind of results they should expect.
Live Show: The Insider
Direct approaches and offers from a company can often come as a surprise to someone who may not be an active job seeker. This job seeker is already known directly by the organisation, usually by being an existing employee. You may currently work for a competitor, supplier, or existing customer of the company. If you are contacted, you have a 90% chance of being hired using this method.

Offering such a direct approach again attracts someone who is perhaps not an active job seeker, but who is not currently known to the recruiting company. The result of this approach is a clear personal elevator speech and track record of delivery, often evidence of support by others within the hiring organization or by individuals within a common corporate network. This is a rapidly expanding field of employment, as companies now pay existing employees for the successful application of new hires. If you are contacted, you have a 50% chance of being hired using this method
Headhunting: Star!
Our modern headhunting process is a straightforward, client-oriented business-oriented brief, and packages quickly. While the client side of the business has changed little but more than that, the search and discovery side of the business has changed due to the boom in social networking. Now, techniques such as Boolean search allow headhunters to create larger lists of suitably qualified applicants, thus presenting better candidates who do more research on a faster time scale. The result is that these job seekers are often not active job seekers, but can be seen as stars in their chosen profession or market. You have a 35% greater chance of being hired if you communicate using this method
Connect with: Inside the track
We are now moving from mostly passive job seekers to active job seekers, who are either working or currently holding a position. Job seekers need to look for the following two types of jobs:
Get to know themselves, and what they offer
Find out what they want to do
Be able to communicate coordination within the personal elevator pitch
Be prepared to research your desired/target organizations
This type of job search requires effort and is therefore avoided by most job seekers because they are not very successful - often ten times as successful as other active types of job search; But because other options require less thought and effort.
The inside track approach requires that in order to make a job search decision, you already have a predetermined contact(s) within your target organization. This internal connection may result from a customer, supplier, competitor, or connection to your business network. Your initial approach is based on personal conversations, often over a cup of coffee, creating a rigorous, research-driven, informational approach to determining who you should talk to and what they are looking to achieve for the business. If you use this method, you have a 20% chance of being hired by your target company
Direct method: explorer
The Navigator method is similar to the Inside Track method and is statistically successful, but since you don't have advanced contacts in your target companies (start with a list of 50 companies, narrow it down to 20 with a general search), you need to build a contact base. . With the growth of business-oriented social networks and an increasing number of companies offering bonuses to existing employees for the successful application of new hires, this approach has become easier than ever.
It takes the same clarity about who you are/what you want out of your career, with the same level of research effort into your target organizations, but developing appropriate internal communications. On average, five times more successful than applying through a newspaper or job board job advertisement, you have a 15% chance of being hired by the company you target on your search list. This can easily be improved to a hypothetical internal level with a 50% or more success rate using some simple research and networking techniques, it just depends on how much of a job do you want at that company?
