Elevator Speeches
<http://www.careerealism.com/personal-brand-elevator-speech/> are becoming
an important item in the toolkit of most people. It doesn't matter if you
are a job seeker <http://www.careerealism.com/job-seeker-skills-2012/> ,
business person or gainfully employed professional, you need a powerful
Elevator Speech (ES) to extend and support your personal brand.

What you say and how you say it are equal parts to delivering an ES that
will either cause people to take notice of you or go to sleep.

Here are ten tips for ensuring you have an ES that packs a punch:

You Only Have 3 Seconds to Get the Job Offer? Yikes!

May 2, 2012 . by Bruce Hurwitz
<http://www.careerealism.com/author/bruce-hurwitz/> .

"I know in three seconds who will get the job."

That's what a friend once told me. He explained when candidates are waiting
in Reception, all he has to do is walk through, take a quick glance at them,
and he knows who will get the job offer
<http://www.careerealism.com/reasons-not-getting-job-offer/> or, at least,
who will not.

Three seconds is very good. Of course, as a recruiter, I pride myself on
being able to know if a person has what it takes to get an interview
<http://www.careerealism.com/how-weird-interview-questions/> (we'll talk
about a job offer in my next article) after spending five seconds on their
cover letter and maybe eight on their resume.

The funny thing is, most job seekers don't believe any of this. That's why
they prepare rambling cover letters and resumes awash with self-praise.

Of course, they are wrong.

10 ways to use LinkedIn like the job search tool it is

<http://i800.photobucket.com/albums/yy286/newgradlife/getajob3.png>
<http://twitter.com/share> Tweet

In today's electronic age, LinkedIn is an essential tool for all job seekers. Because the site is an online network for over 8.5 million experienced professionals, many hiring managers and recruiters scour LinkedIn profiles to find top quality candidates.

If you're an active job seeker you must join LinkedIn and learn the many ways the site can enhance your job search or career.

Here are 10 tips to help you enhance your job search using LinkedIn:

1. Complete your profile thoroughly. Think of your LinkedIn profile as your executive bio and complete your profile thoroughly. Often when clients tell me they've completed their profile and I go look at it, it's rarely complete. This is what I mean by complete:

• Include your picture as it allows for a deeper sense of connection to you and should be part of your brand on all social networking sites.
• List your education, past employers, professional affiliations, awards, and keywords related to your jobs and activities. Some people advise to include employment only up to ten years ago. That is often good advice, not always. I've been a career coach for 10 years and previously I was an executive search consultant and recruiter. Letting people know I spent many years helping people to land jobs adds to my credibility as a career coach. See http://www.linkedin.com/in/minosullivan. Use your best judgement on this one.
• Contact past supervisors, peers and subordinates for recommendations. Also include recommendations from customers, clients and colleagues. Hiring managers and recruiters regularly check recommendations to vet potential candidates.

• Create a descriptive headline (under your name). The generic title "Corporate Attorney" will not inspire many, but IPO Specialist will certainly attract those seeking to take their companies public. Make sure your headline is something your target audience is looking for.

2. Build your network. Build your network to increase the likelihood that your profile will come up at the top of the list when hiring managers/recruiters are looking for candidates. Invite five people a day, every day, to join your network and you'll be amazed at the results. If you're VP Marketing, you don't want to show up on page 10 when people are looking for marketing pros. You want to be on page 1. The more contacts you have the higher you'll be.
