Candidates

With experience in professional recruitment since 1981, we know how to work with you. We understand your career needs and challenges in your job search. And while we may not always be able to help you directly meet those needs, we will be honest with you. We will help you with your resume development and in the salary negotiation process. You may find us on Twitter as RecruiterGuy81.

These pages are designed to help you work your way through the job search maze and black holes. As a Contract Recruiter Consultant, we have been exposed to many candidate mistakes over the years. Our goal is to help you learn from other people's mistakes.

What social media should you work to help in your job search? Whether or not you are employed, now is the time to begin developing your LinkedIn network. Focus on inviting people with whom you worked in the past. If there are people in positions to give you a reference, ask them if they would be kind enough to write an endorsement of your skills while working with them. Contract Recruiter Consultants, like RecruiterGuy, search for potential candidates for their clients on LinkedIn. In your profile, include words that recruiters would use to search your skills. If you have presentations that you would like to share, you may upload them to LinkedIn. In general, LinkedIn is an essential tool to conduct searches and just as importantly to keep in touch with former colleagues. Facebook and MySpace are nice more social than professional ways to keep in touch. Keep your Facebook personna separate from your professional personna. Track your time working with all types of social media. If you are not vigilant, social media may become a time sink. Spend time focused on developing your LinkedIn profile. Then use maintenance time to update your profile. Remember every time you make a change in your profile, everyone in your network may see your change.

As an experienced Contract Recruiter Consultant, we understand the need for confidentiality and will NEVER send a resume to a potential client without your knowledge and consent.

We have attached links to the outlines of a couple of our presentations for your use. Click on the "Presentations" button.

We will also provide links to our book reviews. Click on the "Book Reviews" button. For your convenience, we have provided links to Amazon.com and Barbara Ling so you may order books directly from our website.

Typically we work on a contract recruitment consulting basis. This means that we are narrowly focused to the needs of our one client at a time. Since we normally do not work on a contingent basis, our search requirements may change frequently. As we develop new searches, we will post them on this site.
