Article: Head Hunting Your Next Job (Jeff Altman)

Sun May 29, 2011 9:59 am (PDT)



Head Hunting Your Next Job

When I started my e-zine in 2006, I did so because I understood that I
could only do so much to concretely help someone find a job with a client of
mine. My clients want people with certain backgrounds at certain times and
unless we have the right timing, your excellent experience may not be useful
to them.

So now let's look at some simple strategies to help you that may not be
obvious to you:

Article: Should You Lower Your Salary Expectations?  (CareerBuilder)

Sun May 29, 2011 9:59 am (PDT)



Should You Lower Your Salary Expectations?

How to tell if you're being realistic about what you should be earning

Kaitlin Madden, CareerBuilder.com Writer

Everyone is pinching pennies these days, including employers. Hiring
freezes, lower salary offers to new hires and smaller raises for existing
employees have become commonplace. The unfortunate effect is that many
workers will have to accept -- or at least consider accepting -- lower
salaries. Still, taking a pay cut is a big deal. So how do you decide
whether lowering you salary expectations will help your job search or hinder
you in achieving what you're really worth?

Sorting Out Your Electronic CV

By Kelly Eggers

When it comes to resumes, there's one question that has everybody
disagreeing: PDF or Word?

About a month ago, we published an article on FINS.com called The Ten Worst
Things to Put on Your Resume. Among the 200 or so comments it generated,
about a quarter of them debated which was the right format that job
applicants should use when submitting resumes.

Facebook Scores With Job Seekers

By Dennis McCafferty <http://www.baselinemag.com/cp/bio/Dennis-McCafferty/>
on 2011-05-26

Facebook and other social media resources have emerged as critical elements
in the modern job search. Younger workers seeking internships and
entry-level jobs are making full use of social media to get leads and
contact employers, according to a recent survey from Internships.com. While
IPO hottie LinkedIn has long served a similar career-focused,
<http://www.baselinemag.com/> networking function, other sites built on more
personal connections are now widedly perceived as acceptable tools for
professionals. And these sites are making it easier to use for work-related
networking. Facebook provides CareerAmp to help users manage professional
connections made through friends and friends-of-friends. Twitter offers
services such as TweetMyJOBS to connect candidates with bosses and
recruiters from a wide variety of geographic and vocational backgrounds. The
research also shows an overall sense of optimism on the part of 20-something
workers with respect to their long-term financial futures. More than 520
people took part in the survey:

How To Get HeadHunted

20 May 2011

By Skip Freeman, Headhunter Hiring Secrets
<http://www.headhunterhiringsecrets.com>

A headhunter's mission is to find the top performing talent for a company.
They focus on finding the best people and then matching their candidate's
career goals with a company's needs.

Since a company pays a headhunter between 25% and 33% of the successful
candidate's first year's base salary, they are looking only for
professionals with a proven track record of success. So first, you must be
worthy of being "headhunted."
