How To Get A Job – Guaranteed Success

How to get a jobDuring an economic downturn, finding a job can be an overwhelming task.  Even when times are good, finding a successful occupation can be tough.  The workforce is becoming more and more competitive, the amount of college graduates are greatly increasing, and many businesses are going overseas to find highly qualified employees willing to work for much less.  Everyone will face a point in their life when they will be actively looking for a job.  This can be frustrating and, at times, feel hopeless.  I wanted to share some gems that can greatly increase your chance of landing that job you are looking for.

First of all, for those of you that are currently looking for a job as you read this, what are you doing to try and find one?  I find that most answer this question in unison.  “Posted my resume to Monster.com”, “responding to Craigslist ads”…etc.  Most people spend about 80% of their job prospecting energies in online/newspaper ad responding.  That’s a lot of time.  Well you may argue that this is where most of the jobs are found.  In fact, it is the exact opposite.  Less than 10% of new jobs found were from responses from an online/newspaper ad.  Really?  Why on earth are people spending 80% of their time focusing on it.  That is because it’s the easiest to do.

In fact, just about 80% of new jobs acquired were done so by a referral of someone they knew.  When looking at the numbers, doesn’t it make sense that networking be the focus of your “prospecting” energies?  If you believe in statistics than yes.  So you may ask, but how do I maximize my contacts?  Here is a program that you can use, that has a highly proven success rate.  Those that have applied the principals I am about tell you, had an incredibly higher success rate in finding a job than that of the average public.  So enjoy and put it to the test.
