Article: 10 Job Search Strategies For The Passive Job Seeker (Tim's

10 Job Search Strategies For The Passive Job Seeker
If you are a passive job seeker, you have a challenge. You can't tell
everyone that you are looking. At least not officially. After all, you
don't want to compromise your current job. In case the wrong person hears
about your plans . . .
So what is a passive job seeker to do?
Whether you are a passive or active job seeker, the #1 tool to find a job is
networking. And you can't exactly head on out to the local job search group
and toss out a newly minted elevator pitch.
Because some will say to you: "I thought you had a job?"
And some will say to someone who works at your company: "Hey, I saw Barbara
at the networking event the other night. Sounds like she is looking for
something new . . ."
So what is a passive job seeker to do?
* You want a new job
* You are terrified to leave before getting a new one
* You can't overtly network without risking #2
So here is a list of 10 things a passive job seeker can do to look for a job
effectively without risking the one you have:
1. Hire A
<http://timsstrategy.com/experts/ ?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzE
mail&utm_content=513769&utm_ campaign= 0> Career Coach - especially one that
is really well connected in your community. And hire them for one thing.
Connections. Spend the money wisely . . . while you have it.
2. Take time now to get your paperwork ready. Create a strong resume
update. Capture the data you need to make your accomplishments tangible and
measurable. Create a
<http://timsstrategy.com/free- downloads/ ?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= Fee
dBlitzEmail&utm_content= 513769&utm_ campaign= 0> SoloSheetT and share it with
a few trusted friends and former co-workers.
3. Identify your
<http://timsstrategy.com/how- to-choose- your-target- companies/ ?utm_source= fee
dblitz&utm_medium=FeedBlitzEmail& utm_content= 513769&utm_ campaign= 0> target
companies and begin following them on Twitter. Create a list on Twitter of
great companies in your city and add them to it. Assuming they are not
competitors of your current company, try to build a relationship through
re-tweets and friendly @replies..
4. Get yourself set up on
<http://www.indeed.com?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& utm_co
ntent=513769&utm_campaign= 0> Indeed,
<http://www.monster.com?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& utm_c
ontent=513769&utm_campaign= 0> Monster,
<http://www.careerbuilder.com? utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail
&utm_content=513769&utm_ campaign= 0> CareerBuilder,
<http://www.hotjobs.yahoo.com? utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail
&utm_content=513769&utm_ campaign= 0> Yahoo! Hot Jobs and niche sites for your
industry (e.g.
<http://www.cpgjoblist.com?utm_ source=feedblitz &utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& ut
m_content=513769&utm_campaign= 0> CPGJobList). Get private alerts set up
that will inform you of the jobs being advertised.
5. Be findable in social media (
<http://www.linkedin.com?utm_ source=feedblitz &utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& utm_
content=513769&utm_campaign= 0> LinkedIn,
<http://www.twitter.com?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& utm_c
ontent=513769&utm_campaign= 0> Twitter,
<http://www.facebook.com?utm_ source=feedblitz &utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& utm_
content=513769&utm_campaign= 0> Facebook,
<http://www.plaxo.com?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& utm_con
tent=513769&utm_campaign= 0> Plaxo) and make sure your content there is
up-to-date and consistent with what you want your
<http://www.hrjobsearchsecrets. com?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitz
Email&utm_content=513769&utm_ campaign= 0> career brand to look like.
6. Go to job search focused
<http://www.meetup.com?utm_source= feedblitz& utm_medium= FeedBlitzEmail& utm_co
ntent=513769&utm_campaign= 0> networking events to build up your network.
Ask to be added to their mailing lists - many have Yahoo groups with daily
job leads. And you might even find a few people to help along the way.
7. Attend industry events. You will hear about new companies and
potentially those that are hiring.
8. Be really attentive and helpful when recruiters call. Give them a
reason to want to call you back by referring great people to them.
9. Become a subject matter expert through speaking or blogging. You
will attract opportunities.
10. Join my WatchlystT - Once I have your career objectives, I can send
you job leads if/when I see them. On the QT.
If this is not you. If you are actively looking or not looking at all,
share this post with a friend who's working but looking for something more.
I'm sure they'd appreciate the thought.
What ideas do you have? How do you look effectively without spilling the
beans?

Cash & Career: The Perils of 'Off the Book' Jobs
By Jonnelle Marte
Even last week's modestly upbeat jobs report hasn't altered the harsh truth
facing millions of Americans: It's still ugly out there.
While Congress is trying to entice companies to start hiring again, many
businesses have become used to working with leaner staffs. Some continue to
eliminate jobs and cut back hours. Claims for unemployment benefits are up
one week and down the next. The unemployment rate stands at 9.7%, with
36,000 jobs lost in February, the Labor Department said Friday.
It's no wonder, then, that more and more of the unemployed and underemployed
are doing whatever it may take to pocket extra money each week -- including,
if necessary, "working under the table" for cash and then stiffing the tax
man by not reporting all their income.
For some, it's a second or even third side job. For others, it's a way to
supplement unemployment benefits that don't cover the bills while they look
for permanent work -- a problem that briefly threatened to become even more
acute last week when Republican Sen. Jim Bunning of Kentucky blocked for a
few days a 30-day extension of unemployment benefits for 100,000 laid-off
workers.
But whatever the reason, working for cash -- and misrepresenting your income
to the Internal Revenue Service -- can have big financial and legal
consequences. And the IRS has ramped up its enforcement of income-tax
reporting over the past few years.
"Not only are you risking a huge amount of penalties by not claiming all
your income, you're also losing out on a lot of the benefits," says Anthony
Parent, founding partner of IRS Medic, a Wallingford, Conn., tax law firm.
If you're in this situation, here are some tips on how you can come clean,
the penalties you'll pay -- and what it can cost you if you don't.
Paying It Back
Many workers can come clean simply by filing a late tax return or amending
incorrect returns and paying the taxes, according to the IRS and tax
attorneys. In some cases, if you don't have a W-2 form or pay stub, you can
estimate income, says Donald G. Koch, a New York tax attorney.
There are penalties, however. The late-payment penalty is 0.5% of the taxes
owed per month. And the late-filing penalty is about 5% of taxes owed per
month, maxing out at about 25%, according to the IRS.
"You can end up with a bill far bigger than any amount of money you ever
made in any year," Mr. Parent says.
But attorneys say you can reduce or even eliminate penalties if you come
clean before the IRS catches you or if you cooperate after you come under
investigation. For example, a couple who came forward in 2007 about $40,000
they made in 2005 by selling herbal remedies found out they owed about
$10,000 in back taxes, which increased to about $12,500 with penalties, says
Mr. Parent. If they had been caught before voluntarily reporting the income,
they could have been hit by penalties for misstating their income and civil
fraud that could have doubled their tax bill to about $23,000 and left them
open to audits for other years, he says.
The IRS says it can sometimes grant extensions or waive penalties in
difficult circumstances, such as mental illness or medical emergencies. Job
loss isn't considered a valid excuse for not filing, however. Most
individuals who owe less than $25,000 in income taxes will be able to set up
payment agreements with the IRS if they can't afford to pay the sum upfront,
Mr. Koch says.
People with unreported income also will have to pay back any unemployment
benefits received -- with interest. Unemployment-insurance programs are run
by states, which set their own eligibility requirements and penalties for
tax fraud.
Meantime, employers who don't correctly account for employees with the IRS
are liable for withholding income tax and will owe Social Security and
Medicare taxes for those employees, plus penalties. And they can be fined
and penalized for aiding workers who fraudulently claim unemployment
benefits.
The IRS generally doesn't recommend criminal prosecution of taxpayers who
file or make arrangements to file late returns. But that may not be the case
for those who haven't filed a return for numerous years or already have been
flagged for investigation.
Attorneys and IRS representatives say criminal charges usually are reserved
for high earners or public figures, such as celebrities or popular local
professionals, as well as small businesses. Actor Wesley Snipes is out on
bail while appealing a three-year jail sentence after being convicted on
three misdemeanor counts of failing to file a tax return. Prosecutors said
he owed $2.7 million in back taxes.
"They like cases where there will be some publicity, so they like to get
celebrities, they like to get professionals," says Mr. Koch.
The IRS has up to three years after a tax return is filed to pursue
taxpayers who omit income. That can go up to six years in cases where income
is underreported by at least 25%. There's no limit when workers don't file a
tax return at all or when fraud is involved.
Ding to Social Security Benefits
Working off the books also has a longer-term consequence: You risk reducing
Social Security benefits or not qualifying for them when you retire or if
you become disabled. And survivor benefits can be affected as well.
You need to work and pay Social Security taxes for at least 10 years to
qualify for benefits, whose calculations take into account the average of
the 35 highest annual earnings an employee makes in his or her lifetime.
Those who record fewer than 35 years of work have an annual salary of zero
factored in for years they don't work -- or work off the books. This lowers
their 35-year average and overall Social Security benefits. So will
underreporting income.
Not reporting income and failing to pay Social Security taxes also could
affect disability payments. Employees must work a certain number of years
near the time they get injured to qualify for disability payments.
To correct your work history, you must submit proof of earnings to the
Social Security Administration. And you'll need to pay any Social Security
taxes owed.
